Europe has been named as the best continent for digital nomads
And these are the top countries to move to.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'd actually argue against (at least Western and Northern) Europe for digital nomads, purely because you could move to somewhere in the developing world and live an incredibly comfortable lifestyle thanks to a much lower cost of living. Your mileage will vary based on what languages you speak, of course.
The developing world has the problem of being... well, developing though. And the dictatorships.
And people will see you are wealthy and try to trick or mug you.
Living in the developing world brings its own kind of issues, medical emergencies for instance, as well as the English proficiency around you (which is probably one of the reasons the top 3 countries are DK, DE and NL)
Germany has a low English proficiency, tho. Or did it change?
Ju meight häf tu diehl whiz ze akzent, but owerall itsch not tu bäd ei sink. :)
Probably region dependent, but the cliche seems to be that when asked, Germans say "they don't speak English very well", while actually having a quite good level (based on what visiting English speakers say, anyway)
Ah yes lets exploit poverty
There are some places of value there.
Portugal is really cheap and had programs to bring in digital nomads. Berlin has a relatively low cost of living for Germany with decent amenities.
The split between developing and developed has dissolved.
Berlin and low cost of living... Where did you get that information from?
Berlin can be good value once you're settled. The problem is usually finding a decent apartment, not paying for it.
Compared to the rest of Western Europe it is.
Portugal is (far) eastern europe.
Did you mean western?
No, it is/was meme on the other site, in a lot of statistics Portugal aligns more with Eastern Europe. If you go far enough to the east you end up in the west, so Portugal is just a far eastern european country instead of western european.
