Looking for that one thing I mentioned that one time? It’s probably here. Welcome to the great gathering of links.
Updated... at random. Just like the rest of my life.

Expat Taxes (for U.S. Citizens)
Uncle Sam doesn’t care where you go—he still wants his cut.
Start here: Nomad Gate’s tax guide. It won’t make taxes fun, but it might make them suck less.
NordVPN
Public Wi-Fi is great—until someone steals your data.
A VPN is essential for digital nomads, remote workers, or anyone who values privacy (or wants to stream stuff from back home).
I use NordVPN Plus plan—you can run it on up to 10 devices at once.
Start here: Get 3 months free with a 1-year plan
Signal
The only people who should read your messages are... you and the person you sent them to.
It’s the only messaging app I use. End-to-end encryption, no ads, no creepy data collection.
Start here: signal.org

Meetup.com
Living as an expat or digital nomad can be lonely—but it doesn’t have to be.
Meetup.com is a great way to connect wherever you land—language exchanges, coworking meetups, hiking groups, or just folks who miss good coffee as much as you do.
Reddit
Yep, I’m really suggesting you join Reddit.
It’s chaotic, helpful, occasionally unhinged—and surprisingly great for expat tips, digital nomad threads, and yelling into the void with strangers who get it.
Start here: reddit.com
