  Can host digital nomads

  We’re happy to host digital nomads who need to balance remote work with the Workaway experience. We understand the importance of a quiet space and a good internet connection, and we do our best to provide both. What you need to know: 📶 We have reliable Wi-Fi. 🧘‍♀️ You'll have time and space to focus on your own projects outside of the agreed volunteer hours. 🏡 Our atmosphere is peaceful and calm—ideal for focused work and inner exploration. 🕰️ We try to arrange a clear schedule together so you can plan your work time accordingly. 💻 We appreciate open communication, especially if you have specific requirements for your remote work (e.g., quiet hours, early calls due to time zones, etc.). This is a space for presence, healing, and connection, so we love to welcome people who are mindful, creative, and respectful of shared rhythms.
