Does anyone ever travel to any Islands like Bermuda, Barbados, Barbuda and St. Kitts & Nevis?
Would love to know this too. I have not found a lot of the West Indies islands here on nomad list
I have been in the Dominican Republic since Nov 2020. It's the second largest island in Caribbean
I'm thinking of going, my application for the 12 month Barbados welcome stamp has been approved, it would be great if anyone around has any recommendations. i'm in Belgrade right now and i'm done with the cold must relocate soon.
Has anyone been to Antigua, Guatemala recently? It is on my list for destinations to stay for a week or so. Wanted to know if anyone has had an experience there recently or could point out a cafe or two to find a decent Wi-Fi connection.
Thanks!
There’s definitely fairly decent internet to be found in Antigua. It can vary from 4Mbps for a home connection to 20Mbps in cafes and coworking spaces. More info here:
The Bagel Barn had probably the best wifi of any cafe in town when I was there in late 2015. Touristy as can be (which, most of Antigua is), but good food and coffee.
Y Tu Piña Tambien is a good spot to work, with decent wifi. Rainbow Cafe was decent as well.
Otherwise, it was pretty hit and miss for me.

Based on Guatemala City's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
Antigua is a fun, historic and compact city with enough international visitors to make it comfortable for any expat for digital nomad. In recent decades the city has evolved into an international Spanish-learning destination, for the high quality of life, tourism amenities, access to nature, and low cost. It's also a few hour drive from one of the most beautiful lakes I've ever seen: Lake Atitlan.

Almost impossible to find month-to-month rent, so this is for 1-year lease. Coffee for two + a pastry is easily $20. Dinner for two never less than $50, unless it's fast food (+20% tips are expected) and if you want actually something good it's at least $100 for two. Airbnb is $1

There seems to be a tacit rent floor that means you won't find a good deal on housing.

People are generally open-minded and friendly. The cost of living is high but it allows you to be able to afford other places on earth easily if you can find a job here. You can also find plenty of good restaurants and arts around in the city. I recommend to stay at least 3-6 months to get the feel of living a PNW life.

The best area is Nimman, but it's also the most expensive. You can stay in the old city that's very nice but that gets noisy during the weekend for the night markets.
