Last year, we started a Patreon page as a way to even more develop this website’s community. In conjunction with The Nomadic Network, it allowed us to share much more stories and connect with readers much more through (virtual) events!
Now, we’re taking it a step even more by discontinuing our Patreon effort — and introducing “Nomadic Matt Plus”!
When we asked for feedback from our current Patreon members, the top reaction was “Make it easy for us to find content. Patreon kind of sucks at that.”
Most people didn’t like going to a third-party site for content or updates in the first place. Moreover, they also said the interface made it hard to access older content, because Patreon doesn’t have a search function. everything is in a chronological newsfeed and, because we posted a lot there, content just got pushed down even more and further.
So we created our own version of Patreon in purchase to resolve those problems.
With our new membership site, members will automatically get email updates when new content is posted. We’ve also simplified the navigation and made it simpler to access all our guidebooks and downloadable cheatsheets. and we added a search function to make it simpler to find old content.
In short, we’ve created a better and simpler user experience for our community members!
As a member of Nomadic Matt Plus, you’ll be part of a community within a community. You’ll have access to special content, events, books, and meet-ups. It’s a way to level up your travels!

Boka din resa: logistiska förslag och tricks
Boka din flygning
Find a cheap flight by using Skyscanner. Det är min favorit sökmotor eftersom den söker på webbplatser och flygbolag runt om i världen så att du alltid vet att ingen sten lämnas omvänd.
Boka ditt boende
Du kan boka ditt vandrarhem med Hostelworld. Om du vill stanna någon annanstans än ett vandrarhem, använd Booking.com eftersom de konsekvent returnerar de billigaste priserna för pensionat och hotell.
Glöm inte reseförsäkring
Reseförsäkring kommer att skydda dig mot sjukdom, skada, stöld och avbokningar. Det är omfattande skydd om något går fel. Jag åker aldrig på en resa utan den eftersom jag har varit tvungen att använda den flera gånger tidigare. Mina favoritföretag som erbjuder bästa service och värde är:
SafetyWing (bäst för alla)
Försäkra min resa (för de över 70)
Medjet (för ytterligare evakueringstäckning)
