Hey,
I would advice Portugalโฆ Itโs a cheap country (one apartmen around Lisbon with one bedroom around 330โฌ), have a great culture and night life, beach, people from all over the world and the best places to work. If you come go live around Oeiras, perfect spot.
If you need any help let me know
So far Iโve done Minneapolis, San Fran, Buenos Aires, Bali, Melbourne, and currently Sevilla.
So far Sevilla wins hands down. Cheap (probably one of the cheapest in all of Western Europe), clean, incredible history, warm, safe, easy to get around, etc etc. Thereโs a coworking space here that provides lots of opportunities (both internal and external events) to network, but thatโs open to interpretation.
Iโve enjoyed all of the other places Iโve gone, but Sevilla is a complete package. Every other place has had a major drawback of some sort that ultimately turns me off. SFO + Melbourne were EXPENSIVE. Minneapolis can be cooooold. Buenos Airesโฆhas lots of issues. Baliโs lack of infrastructure and overall heat/humidity can make trivial tasks a real PITA. The only downside some people might feel about Sevilla is the lack of a real party scene (which Iโm fine with) but there is something about seeing old Grandmas still out walking around with family at 4am that makes me think I couldnโt keep up with them even if there was.
Dude, thanks for putting Sevilla on my radar! Sounds like exactly what Iโm looking for. Adding it to the destinations listโฆ
if you need living costs to be low, that leaves out New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and Amsterdam. Berlin is pretty cheap for western Europe. Peru would be cheapest. But that depends on what you consider high living costs to be. Nice to live is relative. What do you mean by networking?
What are the best places right now in the Caribbean/LatAM? (Also cheapest flights/accommodation?) Asking from the US.
I'm in need of a tax advisor who understands "our" typical situation. I'm all good on being legal on taxes at this point, but as I'm doing more investing and there's more compliance and KYC and such, it's getting more complicated to deal with this topic. Not living in my country of citizenship, company in another country, resident in yet another country, banking in a different country ... you know how it is, a pile of red flags.
Would be great to find a good tax advisor to sort things in a way that makes my situation as "explainable" and easily dealt with as possible. Any leads?
We are hoping to travel later this year and we will be working remotely - how do you ensure you get good WiFi in places such as in India where the signal isn't always great? Do you have any tips on where to go/ what equipment you have to get?
Thereโs been a lot of discussion on this recently.
Nomads usually stay in hostels, hotels and short-term apartments. But itโs all not very optimal.
Iโve heard people suggest getting funding and building a network of houses you can stay at for a subscription price (e.g. Bruno Haid is working on that).
I donโt want do physical stuff, so Iโm thinking of building a platform around making housing better for nomads.
What are the housing problems nomads face? And how can we solve them with products/services?
Hi all, I was looking for a cool spot in Southern Europe for winter and Iโm considering Sicilyโฆ Have you ever been there? If yes, how was your experience? If not, why?
thanks!
Greetings!
Does anyone have experience in Bari, Italy please? We are thinking of going from Dubrovnik, Croatia to Bari by boat in mid-March. Has anyone taken a boat across? Is it nice or can it be choppy? (We are trying to avoid planes, to reduce our carbon footprint, so adding more surface travel.) Also, any info you might be able to offer about Bari and the surrounds? Next step will likely be trains up Italy as the Spring progresses.
Hello all,
Iโm planning on spending a couple of month in Mauritius Island and even when Iโve been there for a week, never rented or worked there.
Does anyone here has tips or experience to share about Mauritius?
Cheers!
Hi everybody,
weโre a family of 4 from Canada (Quebec province) leaving to Thailand on December 1st.
Our plan is to take things slowly and live in a peaceful environment while working a little and doing homeschooling to our 6-year-old son (plus escaping Canadian-cold winter 
)
This is roughly what our plan would look like:
Weโre not city dwellers, and love being surrounded by nature.
Knowing that, what would be the best places for a family who want something quiet, walkable and with reliable Internet service?
Thanks! 
Magali and Guillaume
We launch in 2 weeks. In the US, we use Apple TV and Netflix regularly. Do these work abroad?
What are the most comfortable and affordable coworking places in Amsterdam?
I donโt like noisy cafes and high prices of Spaces.
Hi All! Iโve heard Spark and Vodafone are the best. I plan to move around, so I care mostly about having good coverage, and all Iโll need is around 1 GB of data or so.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hey, Three in the UK offer a โGo Roamโ package that - at first glance - looks good for nomads.
It essentially promises data use abroad, up to 12GB,
Iโd link to Threeโs FAQ for Go Roam, but as Iโm a new user I canโt.
Bali/Indonesia and Australia are both included, which are top destinations for me.
Thailand is not, which may be annoying.
I could do with a new iPhone before I leave for Bali again in January and as Iโve been launching a new business, am a bit short on cash.
Unsure if this is a good solution, or if it makes more sense to sit-it-out on my iPhone 6 until I can buy an iPhone XS Max with cash and stick whatever SIM I want in it.
What do you guys think?
Cheers!
Are there any regular meet-ups or other places to meet nomads in London?
This was the only nomad focused event I saw on meetup.com:

Iโm a South African about to become a Nomad next year. I will still be employed by a South African company and receive a salary into my FNB bank account monthly.
I will be mostly based in Serbia but plan on travelling a lot. Does anyone have any advice on the best bank account to have? Is there a way to not get charged a small fortune in ATM charges and avoid getting my account frozen for using it in lots of countries?
Iโm unsure of the best way to handle things. Should I try get another bank account outside of SA (Can I even do that)? I also have a British Passport if that makes a difference.
If any of you have any experienced advice I would be very grateful, Thanks in advance!
Hey guys โ Iโm looking for the best cheap places to be a digital nomad in Central and South America. Priority list: 1) cheap 2) social 3) strong internet. Iโm in debt and need to cut my cost of living as low as possible. But hey, I still have to live it up. THanks!
Hey! Trying to learn more about digital nomad locations in Mexico. Anyone living in San Pancho (San Francisco), Mexico? Do you recommend it?
Im looking to make my first venture into nomad living this September and keep leaning back towards Bocas del Toro.
Does anyone have experience setting up shop there? Iโm open to other warm weather surf towns as well
Starting a SaaS company that assists the operation of service based industries so being near some other SaaS people would be wonderful. (First time starting a tech company)
I am deep in the search from Mexico to Barbados, Cayman Islands to Columbia.
Anyone know of a hostel with good internet on the beach or a co-living house happening?
Hey everyone,
We are nomad couple looking for some house we can stay for year or more.
Are there any known good places, like new villages with modern houses or something like this that we can check? Or any place you can recommend to look for a good (for European) house for rent?
Thx in advance for your help!
