What are the typical problems you find when living as a digital nomad?

There are a lot of mini issues but I'd say the biggest for me is being out of your support network back home and having to build a career on the road.

That was my personal experience. As I always recommend these days, get yourself set up making money online before you leave and this won't be such an issue when you start traveling.
