I personally would be in the target market, however I've typically rented AirBNB's in different countries and worked from there. So there would have to be some kind of upside over that for it to be worth it.
That said, biggest problem with "working from a different country" for me is self control. It's hard to actually be productive when the weather is beautiful, lots of interesting things are going on, and the beach is calling. Perhaps a co-working, or some kind of organized offsite with coworkers could change that.
- ricksunny 4y agoLove all that valuable feedback. • Likewise I also do a lot of airbnbs in different countries too. In a new region though I usually encounter a kind of fishbowl syndrome - there's always some small area where people 'in the know' seem to congregate around - like the hindsight obvious neighborhood or cafe for get-up-and-running-quickly nomadding. Takes me days to find those locales from square-one in a new region because I haven't met the savvy folks yet, if the locale even exists in a given area. I often wish there was a go-to network for that (there is, it's just a bit sparse coverage still especially the more rural / developibg country you find yourself in. • I love the articulating of tbe hard-to-be-productive-because-beacb problem. I definitely hit that in coastal Zanzibar earlier this year.I actually think that's a really worthwhile problem to solve, probably by siting a co-working / co-living community more inland.(Like, there's a reason why Obama wrote his book in inland Ubud of Bali rather than coastal Denpasar).
