The idea of the survey came from our own mobile life style. The people we have encountered have been interested in travelling people's way of life: who are they, why do they travel, how do they earn money. We believe this kind of information is needed not only for general interest, but for societies. Current nation states cannot answer to the needs of travelling people. Visas, passports, residence and working permits are making mobile life difficult, sometimes even impossible. Boundary-breaking information is needed to increase understanding between travelling people and their hosts.

We intend to make the interviews personally with the people who are currently residing in Europe, and use Skype with others. The interview takes approximately two hours. Our deadline for completing the survey is autumn 2010. After that we will analyse survey results qualitatively (discourse analysis) and write a book on the 21st century nomads.

The research is academic and non-profit.
