Biography
Lucas has worked remotely since 2017 from more than forty cities, holding long-stay permits in Portugal, Thailand and Mexico. He is the first-hand experience layer of TravelOS: the cost figures in our city and nomad guides come from receipts, leases and invoices, not estimates.
He verifies the practical details that break trips — whether an eSIM actually activates at the airport, whether a coworking day pass exists, what a one-bedroom really rents for outside the tourist core, and how long a bank appointment takes.
Guides he edits carry the month he was last in the city, so readers can weigh how fresh the on-the-ground detail is.
