Dream Remote Workspaces with iBestTravel
You could continue to work from home… or you could work from someone else’s more fabulous home. Here’s our pick of dream remote workplaces in Europe and beyond.
Working from home is here to stay, but your boss never said it has to be your home. Moreover, renting a remote workplace for a month in an adobe house on the chilled-out Mexican coast, a loft apartment in a hip French city, or a cute cabin in the Norwegian fjordland, can enhance your work experience. Most of us are still feeling a little travel-starved, so a longer working holiday could be just the thing to brighten up a season of remote work.
As a travel writer specializing in responsible travel, I try to explore new destinations less often but for longer periods. I find that combining remote working with exploration allows me to build a stronger relationship with a place. For instance, I enjoy cooking with ingredients bought at a local market, learning to surf during my downtime, or skiing in picturesque locations, while also engaging in the local culture and making new friends. Here’s our edit of ten dream remote work rentals that will make working from home feel like a holiday…
