you are typically liable for income taxes in your country of residence (your tax residence) on any income you earn, no matter where you live... so you might or might not owe taxes in those other countries depending on a few factors - 1) their tax laws and whether or not your income is taxable there under their law 2) whether or not your own country has a double taxation treaty with them (you might owe taxes in more than one country. 3) if your country has a foreign earned income exclusion similar to the US and XX,XXX.XX is tax exempt if you remain out of your home country for most of the year (usually almost the whole year)
