Resumo
The purpose of this study is to examine how female digital nomads engaged in online language tutoring navigate the intersection of remote work and an itinerant lifestyle. Using a qualitative research design, this study consists of two sequential phases. The first phase involves a social media analysis to identify prevalent themes among female digital nomads, particularly language educators. The second phase comprises virtual semi-structured interviews with 12 participants, offering in-depth narratives and insights into their lived experiences. The data will be analyzed through thematic inductive analysis via Leximancer to systematically identify key themes and patterns. By investigating the socio-economic and structural challenges faced by female digital nomads, as well as the adaptive strategies they employ to sustain their professional endeavors in a location-independent lifestyle, this study contributes to the academic discourse on digital nomadism. Additionally, it provides a foundation for future research and policy discussions on inclusivity and accessibility in the global remote work environment.
