Digital Nomad: London

What is a digital nomad? Digital nomads are remote workers who travel to different locations on a regular basis. They use modern technology to work from coffee shops, hotels, co-working spaces, or libraries with a WiFi-connected laptop or smartphone from anywhere in the world.

The last 18 months have seen some drastic social change, particularly in the way we work. With worldwide lockdowns, many of us have been adapting to remote working, doing away with the 9 to 5 in favor of more flexible arrangements. The good news is that remote working is likely here to stay, so being in the digital office while traveling is a very real new-world possibility.

Digital nomad culture is thriving across the globe, with countries like Croatia actively encouraging workers to choose their country as their new base. So if you’d like to add travel to your work-life balance this year, what are your options?

Choosing a country with good internet access, lots of local cafes, and cheap rent should be top priorities.

When looking for a destination to work remotely, Europe is the ideal place to start. With interesting and diverse cities in close proximity and many offering nomad-friendly visas, it’s the perfect destination to embark on a part-work, part-travel adventure. If the idea of working from a new city every other month sounds like a dream to you, here’s how to get very real on planning where to go and make sure you’re always in good company.
