Summary/Abstract: This popular science article focuses on digital nomadism and its relation to lifestyle and career management. The study includes a review of literature related to those issues. The growing amount of both scientific and amateur publications about digital nomadism makes researching this phenomenon not only interesting but means it can also become a valuable academic topic. This article seeks to discover if the way literature presents digital nomadism shows any characteristics that would allow to classify it as a career management style and a lifestyle. The qualities of digital nomadism observed during the literature review that make it possible for the phenomenon to be considered both a lifestyle and a career management style were also analyzed in conjunction with a number of digital nomads’ opinions gained during holding interviews with them. The conducted research was based on the interpretivist paradigm.
