Which cities are best suited for remote work?

For some of us, working remotely or independently is the ideal lifestyle. What a joy to be able to freely choose where you turn on your laptop and start working. It is even possible to work abroad. According to a survey by the company 'Remote', here are the 10 best cities to work as a digital nomad.

As long as there is wifi

Those who choose (or are lucky enough) to (be able to) work remotely are spoiled for choice. Whether from your living room, the local café, a trendy coworking space, or an exotic destination, the possibilities are many and varied. You can work anywhere, as long as the wifi works.

Note: If you wish to work from abroad as a teleworker, you must obtain explicit authorization from your employer. Only then will you be able to work remotely with complete peace of mind and will you be immediately in compliance, particularly about the payment of your social security contributions and your insurance against work accidents.
