We don't know what was stopping us from exploring this working style, but we aren’t wasting any more time embracing it.

Indonesia offers a vibrant culture and a high quality of life at a low cost. The capital, Bali, has a thriving digital nomad community and the natural beauty of the island powered with reliable internet and numerous coworking spaces make it one of the best cities for remote workers. Ubud, a town in Bali, is known for the spectacular views and serene environment it offers and is a crowd-favourite amongst travellers looking to make Bali their home for a longer period of time.
Lisbon has a rich history and yet a modern, cosmopolitan atmosphere. It offers the more sought-after European charm while being extremely accessible. While here, remote workers can strike the perfect balance between work and leisure and enjoy their time experiencing state-of-the-art infrastructure and mingling with a huge expat community. And the cherry on the cake? The cost of living is quite low, which allows you to fully experience what the city has to offer without breaking the bank.
Ho Chi Minh has emerged to be a hotspot for digital nomads and with good reason. This city allows travellers to fully embrace the digital nomad living by offering them a vibrant atmosphere, cheap and easy access to the internet and numerous coworking spaces. Although a bustling metropolis, this city offers you a chance to relax and breathe in the fresh air when you're done with the hustle. This city also has a rich history and mouthwatering cuisine that you can explore during your down time, making it the ideal blend of work and play.
Tbilisi, Georgia is one of the best and cheapest places to live for digital nomads. Although a fairly unknown destination for remote workers, it has all the qualities to serve as the perfect home away from home. Its unique blend of history and modernity coupled with its visa-free regime and a low cost of living, makes it a top choice among many travellers. It also has an up and coming start up culture that could lead to potential collaborations, making it an intriguing choice.
Barcelona may seem like an unconventional destination for digital nomads, but you will be surprised to know that other than just offering a high quality of life and a vivacious cultural experience, the city also provides excellent work-life balance with multiple coworking spaces and a well-connected international community. However, there is one downside to it - the cost of living is slightly higher as compared to the other destinations on this list, but our argument is that when you have an opportunity to work out of Spain, you do it for the experience, especially when the city has such diverse activities to offer.
