🇧🇬 Bulgaria, a haven for Digital Nomads! 🌍💻

Our friends from Visit Bulgaria published a comprehensive article about traveling to Bulgaria as a Digital Nomad. 📰✈️

It highlights the potential of our country as a thriving hub for , supported by solid remote work infrastructure - excellent Internet connection (including in remote areas), lots of Coworking spaces spread around the country and many emerging Coliving spaces. 🌐🏢🏠

The recent 4th edition of Bansko Nomad Fest - attracting nearly 700 people from all around the world - is just another proof of that! 🌟🌍

We look forward to seeing more nomads and remote workers choosing Bulgaria as a destination and (why not) a place to settle as a base. 🤝🏡🌞

A glimpse into our work retreat and workation experiences, present and future!

Преди няколко дни имахме удоволствието да бъдем интервюирани от Economic.bg и да споделим за работните ритрийти и Workation-и, които организираме за нашите клиенти: дистанционно работещи компании и екипи.

Силно вярваме, че дистанционната работа е един от катализаторите за промяна на туристическия модел, позволявайки по-дълги престои, извън отъпканите пътеки и отвъд високия сезон.

Благодарности на Габриела Махлелиева-Георгиева за стойностното интервю!

Дигиталното номадство не само че промени напълно облика на работата и трудовата миграция в световен мащаб, но се явява и нова възможност за развитие на туризма

- benefits and tips for employers!

That was the topic of last night's meetup, organized by our partners - Multispace - at the fascinating brand new coworking space WorkBetter - where we had the pleasure to discuss with employers from the Bulgarian HR industry what are the Pros and Cons of using Workations as a employee perk.

While , and are all great ways to incentivize your staff, they are not a panacea but rather just one of the many components that lead to employee well-being. We all agreed that the biggest challenge for employers is to prevent burnout and issues and this requires a far better job than just randomly organizing entertainment events for your people.

Different studies show that companies organizing suffer lower rates of burnout among their staff - but rather than a causation, I believe there is a correlation here, given that it is precisely these companies that care the most for their people.

It is great to get see so many people - such as our colleagues in Multispace, karavani.bg and Balcanic: - working on facilitating the concept here in Bulgaria, which we - at Nomad Balkans - believe is and is going to be a huge game-changer in the travel industry.

As you can imagine our team is fully remote and we love it! ☀️🌿One of the best reasons is we can explore some hidden places during weekend around our locations.

The first day of July in Bulgaria is a special day :) Welcoming the summer, the sun and the freedom of spirit, a lot of people choose to receive the first sun rays at the Bulgarian Black Sea coast but also in any place where you can enjoy the nature and its power! Listing the Uriah Heep's song 'July Morning' is a must and it reminds us that the best days of the year are coming! ☀️😊
Wishing you a great summer!

1st of March in Bulgaria is a day that brings hope for a healthy, prosperous and peaceful year ahead.

This day sets the beginning of a very special tradition, celebrated throughout centuries, associated with the current month: Baba Marta.

Baba Marta (Grandma March) is a mythical figure, which brings to an end the cold winter and sets the beginning of spring. To celebrate it, on 1st of March, Bulgarians exchange martenitsi 🔴⚪️ - small pieces of adornment, made of red and white yarn - mostly in the form of bracelets or representing two dolls, male and female.

The red and white colors express the wish for good health for the whole year, being the white color a symbol of purity, while the red color symbolizes life and passion.

Let this month be a true messenger of health!
