Why is Nepal perfect for digital nomads?

People who can make a living when working on their computers are known as digital nomads.
They work in communications, programming, photography, the travel industry, robotic
assistants, and online English classes, among other areas. Digital nomads are a self-described
tribe that meets online in Facebook groups and in person in various locations around the world.
Simply put, someone who operates from everywhere in the world using a laptop, a cell phone,
and a reliable internet connection. Going into 2019, the term "digital nomad" was all the rage.
Remote staff have the right to travel to a less costly country in Southeast Asia, snap photos and
videos, and brag about it on social media.
It's easier than ever to become a digital nomad, thanks to the growing trend of tech businesses to
recruit remotely and build a dispersed team all over the world. Let's not forget about working as
a freelance contractor for sites such as Upwork and Toptal. Apart from your working computer
(laptop, camera, and/or mobile phone), anyone working remotely would require power and a
decent internet connection. Nepal used to have a lot of power outages that lasted up to 14 hours a
day.
Load shedding, though, has been a thing of the past, due to new leadership and management in
place. There will be no more power outages. While internet pervasiveness is increasingly
increasing in Nepal, don't expect super-fast internet in remote villages. The internet speeds in
Kathmandu, Pokhara, and a few other cities range from 25 to over 60 Mbps. There could be
some issues with video calls and live streaming, but in general, expect fast internet in the cities.
Places with inexpensive housing and decent Wi-Fi are particularly common. Chiang Mai, Tblisi,
and Bali are examples of common destinations among the population.
More citizens went online and began working with businesses in other countries with their
notebooks and desktop computers. Co-working spaces began to spring up all over the city as a
result of the fact that not everyone has decent internet connections at home and does not need an
office. Coworking spaces are open offices where you pay a monthly fee for Internet access,
desks, printers, and tea and coffee. Co-working spaces are environments where people meet one
another, get to know their coworkers, and share their expertise. New projects and innovations
will emerge from these gatherings. Fedor Ikelaar, a blogger, and Aayush Shrestha, a
programmer, met in a co-working space that hosted an evening open mic. They're both
comedians, and they've opened a comedy club together!
The first thing to remember is that becoming a digital nomad is not a task. It's a way of life. A
lifestyle fraught with insecurity: urban nomads freelance from one career to the next, money
comes and goes, and is primarily spent on plane tickets and a decent laptop. Digital nomads have
already begun to arrive in Kathmandu and have begun to organize activities. Travel bloggers,
designers, engineers, web developers, content creators, and travel agents are among Nepal's
urban nomads, according to the cultural lifestyle journal ECSNEPAL.
Kathmandu is Southeast Asia's fastest growing capital, which means the number of facilities
available, such as internet, free WiFi, work-friendly cafes, Coworking spaces, and the number of

new services coming up, is far higher here than in other parts of Nepal. This city will act as a
base for a digital nomad, from which they can work and fly to nearby destinations when their
workload allows. Over the last few years, Kathmandu's internet speed has increased
dramatically. As a result, the number of freelancers working from home for foreign clients and
people performing remote work for foreign corporations has increased.
