I tried something similar this past summer while traveling through Europe/Turkey and found that the hardest part freelancing (beyond the difference in time zones) was finding stable wifi in order to transfer client files. Even in a place like London I found myself in train station Starbucks uploading files.

I imagine if you stayed in a country for a while it'd be easier to get mobile broadband but hopping around a continent makes it pretty difficult since you can't (in my experience) get sim cards with data plans and use them in several countries.

Hmm, I don't have much experience with working while traveling through lots of countries. I can imagine that does make it harder. Though, to be honest I did do most of my work from a Starbucks. Even went on a date with one of the baristas. :)
