It sounds like you already know what you want to do.

I spent two years travelling the world while freelancing. I was building iOS apps remotely for companies in the UK. You'll be amazed how far the pound will take you in developing countries.

My advice is to spend six months in each location and try to really live there. Typical backpacking didn't work for me while also working.

Suggestions: Chiang Mai, Medellin, Bali, Berlin (cheap, but not the same kind of cheap as the others in this list)

My email is in my profile if you need any tips/ideas.
