Que história linda.. Larguei meu emprego há um ano atrás, eu era Fuzileiro Naval Concursado, tinha uma carreira toda pela frente, Fiquei durante anos lá e a cada ano que passava eu ganhava mais dinheiro porém aumentava mais minha infelicidade, porque não conseguia viajar por muito tempo, apenas nas férias e eu tinha que ir p Belém ver meus pais, pois na época eu morava no Rio. E a cada ano que passava eu pensava "mais um ano sem ter vivido meu propósito" até que um dia eu chutei o balde, pedi meu desligamento, voltei p Belém, aluguei um kit net por 6 meses e comei a estudar TUDO sobre marketing Digital, hoje estou com alguns projetos olinne e acredito que ano que vem já vou poder viajar de forma sustentável e viver a história mais linda da minha vida como Nômade digital. Apesar de ainda não ter realizado esse sonho, eu sinto minha alma dizer "Obrigado por ter me escutado", e hoje eu sei como nunca que estou no caminho certo. As melhores coisas da vida só são obtidas através de Sacrifício e Disciplina e é por isso que a maioria das pessoas não vivem seus sonhos genuínos, pois elas não estão dispostas a passarem pela dor do sacrifício e da disciplina e também muitas das vezes elas não despertaram, esse é um despertar de consciência que todos tem em algum momento da vida, mas nem todos entendem seu chamado. E lembrem-se: A zona de conforto é o algoz dos seu sonhos.
And look at you now! you're actually killing it! cannot wait to see where you end up this year 😀
Yay Sam!! 😍 I’m excited to see what I’ll achieve this year as well, thank you so much for your inspiration ❤ wishing you all the best for your journey too!
Your determination paid off in the end; with Focus, Consistency & Determination, you can achieve Any Goal.
This is so relatable, thank you for posting this. It’s put in some ideas for me.
This is so inspiring! Thank you💕💗
Amazing inspiring story! 😊
Thank you for sharing, love your story, very inspiring ❤
Such an inspiring story. Thanks for sharing! All the best❤
Amazing story ! Good job :)
Very inspiring video. In fact I am going to do something very similar. In 6 months I am leaving with my cat to Thailand where I plan to stay for a year. I have experience with youtube, photography, video and photo editing etc. To tell you the truth, I still don't believe I can do it all. But there is nothing else left for me . The ticket is bought and the accommodation is paid for so ... There's no turning back 😂
Congratulações!
Thank you so much Rafa!!!!!!!
Rafa, you're a inspiration of me. Thank u. Not stop it !♥
Love that you went out to follow your dream of a creative career, it's never easy to step out of your comfort zone. I started to travel the world ten years ago and have been working remotely since. Now I am also growing my RUclips channel, and I really enjoy the creative process 😊 I love to see other creators on the same journey ❤ all the best to you
Thank you for sharing your story, Rafa! So inspiring, so brave, so interesting. I bet so many people can relate to that and just by sharing your story so honestly, you show them a possible way out. So valuable! All the best for you and keep on going. Love your videos ❤️
I resonate with so much of what you're saying. That moment of getting the dream job, but feeling sad about it. I felt the same way when I got my job at a start up out of school. I'm now looking to quit and live the nomadic lifestyle 😅
It is so nice to know other people who felt the same! Wishing you the best for your journey!! Thank you for the support
I have been following your videos for a few months now, and I am just amazed with this video.. I actually feel I have known you better ow, which makes me comfortable to even message you here.
I must compliment you, you are so brave and strong, in decision making. Honestly, you have challenged me a lot. I wish you well in your career.
This is crazy inspiring, and really brave of you! It takes a lot of guts to take a risk like that, especially when you don’t have a lot of money saved up. I have 6 months living expenses saved, and I still don’t feel ready to take the plunge 😅
Hey! Thank you so much, I am very happy i inspired you! I know it looks scary but you will have to take risks sometimes to build greater things. Wishing you all the best in your jounery!
You are an inspiration Rafa. You kept battling away. Nothing would deter you from your dream. Persistence must be your middle name.
Thank you so much!! I really did and I will keep doing it 😍
I really enjoyed your Bali videos

Pretty cool story. I had very close experience. But I liked my job in a big accounting firm. I started to have customers asking me to do job for them outside of 9-5. I thought I will steal these customers at the end and make my own business, but willingness to travel was stronger.
Nice!! Thank you for sharing your story 😊
So proud of you 💛
thank you girl ❤
Great video very inspiring seriously
Thank you! I am very glad I inspired you :)
Pretty cool story :).
vc fez fea? caraca, eu lembro de vc. legal! eu nao aguentei 6 meses no itau tb, pedi a conta, virei programador e to me planejando pra começar como nomade agr. Já segui aqui, feliz em ver feanos libertos. abs
Very inspiring story and insightful definitely understand there were people tend to doubt you because they can’t understand what your thinking or how your possibly going to live the life you want but that can come from fear and wanting the best . But as you grow up you learn you’re not living for others but yourself . Congratulations on your journey I think it was just a lot of hard work and dedication and self belief that got you were you are now . Very inspiring
This video has actually helped me to better understand what I want to do with my own life and how it’ll work so thank you for the video I’m not crazy 😂😂😂 seeing you do it tells me I can too.
Thank you!! Glad it inspired you! And yeah I understand why people would be worried but as you said we need to live for ourselves and not the others :) and no, you are not crazy!! hahaha I am glad my video helped you! Good luck 🙂
Keep making videos on digital nomad spots and how to become one please 🙏
Hi Rafa, thank you for the great video. I really enjoyed listening to your story. I just wanted to leave you a feedback regarding your audio. You need to reduce the gain on your microphone since your audio is clipping. While recording your max volume should be somewhere around -16 DB, that leaves you with enough headroom in case you get louder or move closer to the mic. You can then raise the overall volume in post production by normalization. You can easily find a short tutorial for the right mic gain and the process of normalization on YT. All the best :)
Thank you Gerry!! I know it doesn't sound good and i thought of recording again after but i decided to leave this one like this and change for the next ones. Thanks for the tips :)
Rafaaaa que canal legal!! Preciso mostrar este vídeo para meus alunos. Ah! Estou amando os vídeos sobre quanto os nômades ganham e o que eles fazem.... Espero que veja este comentário. Muita luz para vc querida!! ❤🎉
Obrigadaaa 😍 Que bom que gostou! Espero que seus alunos gostem tbm ❤️❤️
Logo percebi que seu inglês era "mais fácil" de entender... devemos ter o mesmo sotaque 😁. Boa sorte na jornada!
Very inspiring
Hey Rafa, This was pretty interesting ans inspiring journey of yours i have just Expirienced. I have been consuming your content so much recently and i thing i currently at that i wanna move out somewhere to figure out life but confused what to start and where to start i would so much if you could somehow mentor me or advice me somehow. i was trying to reach you after your 3rd part of DIGITAL NOMAD. i wish you luck! you would really succeed in this influencer thing.
😍😍😍
Rafa is 💪💪 ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Lovely inspiring story..Well done! How did you have permission to work in London? I thought Brexit no longer allows foreign people to work? Would be great to know because I want to live in the Uk..❤
U're inspiring
I thought you was from Germany because our English 😂. Bom saber que tem outra brasileira no mundo que pensa parecido comigo. Estou eu aqui me planejando e estudando para virar nomade digital com audiovisual.. Muito legal o vídeo. Tem algum plano de vim para Portugal?
Oi Pedro! Sou brasileira mesmo hahaha Boa sorte na sua jornada! Audiovisual eh uma otima profissao para fazer como nomade digital/freelancer, muita busca. Qualquer duvida sobre vida freelancer/nomade me fala. Por enquanto sem planos para portugal, mas nunca sei exatamente para onde vou! hahaha
Que história maravilhosa. Mas e esse seu inglês excelentes, desde quando você ê fluente? Como é a sua relação com o idioma. Onde voce aprendeu a falar assim? Parabéns pelo conteúdo
Share how do you deal with Loneliness as a Digital Nomad.
Wow well done 🎉 I really like how you express yourself. I think you are also a great speaker, maybe that's sth you could progress on RUclips. I am very inspired by your brave choice taking. I am about to do the same 🙏😃🤞🍀 Do you still have a home base or do you just travel all the time?
oi Rafa, me identifiquei muito com a sua jornada! Sou dev e trabalhei pra uma big4 também (Deloitte, tho), mas sinto falta (muita) de ser criativa, escrever, viajar... Enfim, estou pensando em criar conteúdo, mas estou super em dúvida se faço em inglês ou pt-br. Você tem alguma dica sobre isso? obrigada!
Os 2 amiga, tem mto Br e inglês pq o crt é mais alto
Oi Michelle!! Que bom que se identificou e te inspirei, comece a criar conteudo vc vai amar. qual seu insta/tiktok? Sobre se fazer PT/Ingles tambem foi uma questao para mim no inicio mas eu nao queria fazer com as duas linguas, eu conheco pessoas que postam assim e acho confuso para os seguidores e ate para marcas/conseguir jobs no futuro pq o seu publico fica dividido na minha opiniao. Ou se decidir fazer nos dois sempre faca nos 2 e nao faz as vezes em PT, as vezes em ingles pq ai que fica confuso. No meu caso decidi postar em ingles pq eu queria conectar com pessoas de outras culturas, eu ja morava fora do brasil e a maioria dos meus amigos era de fora (alem de familia e amigos da facul).. hoje tenho amigos que fiz pelas redes sociais de todos os paises e amo isso. Tenho seguidores de todas as partes do mundo e acho incrivel. Entao veja o que vc prefere e seus focos, no meu caso fiz a decisao certa de fazer em ingles na minha opiniao. e nao tenha medo de seu julgada pelo sotaque, sempre que recebo comentarios do meu sotaque eu ignoro kkkkk nem ligo mesmo, no inicio ligava agr nao mais hahaha
How its work for others?
sounds like me :D
The audio sounds gainy and muffled. Best of luck!
Living on less > Living on more
move side your mic 😊
So you did all of this in 3 years?
