Interesting stuff! And as a remote-only business owner and frequent digital nomad, I share your belief that "the future lies with distributed teams."

I'm curious -- how did you select the engineers from those companies? Publicly available LinkedIn profiles, or something along those lines?

Happy to read, and interested in the data besides, so I poked around your company's blog a bit as well. It's right up my alley, since we do all remote business and my wife and I are digital nomads. It's interesting to see folks gathering data about this work movement.

I am so glad to hear that you visited our blog! :) Yes, we try to do interesting interviews with digital nomads like you and our entire company to fight the stigma around remote work and show great examples and case studies.

If you were interested, we could do such collaboration with you :)

We are always happy to share experiences, life hacks, success stories with the remote community.

Sure, I'd be happy to! Our business is actually a content business, so that's right up my alley. Feel free to let me know what you have in mind, DM, email (erik at hitsubscribe) -- whatever works.
