Remote Work and Digital Nomad Insurance 101, Building the First Internet Country, Leading With Values With Sondre Rasch From SafetyWing
About this episode
Do you really need medical insurance when traveling or working abroad? SafetyWing cofounder and CEO Sondre Rasch gives us the 411 on travel insurance and the unique offerings that SafetyWing provides for nomads and remote workers/teams.
Sondre covers the essentials of travel insurance, and we talk about his approach to leadership as a CEO who is leading the charge of the digital nomad and remote work movement. We explore the challenges around where remote work is going and what SafetyWing is doing to be a part of the solution, including its mission to create a global social safety net and build the first country on the internet!
