Just being around other people who are working is a little bit like a park run, you are running at your own pace, whilst also being carried along.

Have you noticed a gradual blurring of the boundary between work and personal life? My research participants reported a growing expectation to be available 24/7. https://t.co/IlVxutFXyP

Remember when colleagues would invite you for coffee or lunch? If you work remotely has this been replaced with other kinds of break, or instead with more work? Companies must create cultures and policies encouraging staff to take breaks. https://t.co/NGM6QI0sRw

Have you found yourself missing physical proximity to others when working remotely? Or if you don't already work remotely, do you imagine you'd miss that closeness if you did? https://t.co/1R06ApsmsP

"The pull of freedom, and trying to escape the 9 to 5. A lot of digital nomads are rejecting the traditional notion of a job": Anthropologist Dave Cook @iamdavecook @UCLanthropology @UCLSocHistSci on why more people are remote working as "digital nomads"

What makes a happy work-life balance precisely? For me it's navigating a fine line whilst maintaining an inner sense of grace and peace, but it's open to personal interpretation. What does it mean to you? Let me know in the comments.

[Dave Cook @iamdavecook]

It's crucial to set clear boundaries between home life and work and not put pressure on ourselves to be available outside working hours.

Great article from Shaun Busuttil and @olgahannonen on digital nomads and ethics. We need more conversations like this. Let's have these discussions that view the world from difference viewpoints.

There’s no doubt the digital nomad lifestyle is much harder if you don’t travel with a 'strong' passport that allows visa-free travel. https://t.co/5QNMuNmHcx

It's nice to have my research so strongly featured in an article by the respected global news outlet El Pais. https://t.co/ftUcsAoS3t

But @ElPais it's disapointing that is little actual reporting here. The links are incorrect and the sources wrong - this is not ok!

[Dave Cook @iamdavecook]

This is a fascinating extention of the concept that we are all personal brands! https://t.co/CG5wjCztgL

@AnnaCox_ professor of human-computer interaction at UCL, adds "Policymakers need to take concrete action to protect workers’ rights to switch off.”
