Code on the Road

Packed campervan setup with a 24Wh Novate e-470 ultrabook, a 50,000 mAh power bank (banned on planes), a USB‑powered 1080p portable monitor and noise‑cancelling headphones lets remote work while traveling. Trip runs seven months, covers 13,500 km and five countries, consuming over 0.5 TB of data. Practical lessons: campsite Wi‑Fi is useless, carry multiple carrier SIMs, budget 50 GB per person for stress‑free video calls, and use leveling ramps and an external tent to live and work comfortably.
