One of the most fascinating cities in Europe to lean back and look back World passes, while enjoying freshly made up parties Lattes and Cappuccinos, is of course Paris.
The iconic city is covered with seemingly endless sidewalk cafés, but never short of tourist crowds. In the digital nomad world, as great as making the aforementioned cafés your office for the day, hefty rental prices often push the budgets from digital nomads to the outskirts.
But no worries. France is full of wonderful cities to make your basis and is specifically suitable for external employees with a friendly policy for long -term staying.
According to a recent guide for digital nomad published by DriftOne of the rising cities of France in the digital nomad scene is a big surprise, but not so surprising why.
Affordable, artistic and very start-up friendly, the underrated city of Nantes has become the newest heart report in France for digital nomads.
Where in the world is Nantes?
I bet the average American could not call 5 French cities, but I bet that also seasoned digital nomads can at least call it a dozen, because they are often looking for the next great place.
That said, Nantes, a fairly large city of 320,000, may not have been one of them.
But it should be now.
Several reports have recently shown Nantes as fun, quirky and an unmistakably emerging destination, with Drift’s Guide the newest.
This Riverside City is located in the Upper Brittany region of France and has a buzzing art scene and portals in the past with wonders such as Château des Ducs de Bretagne.
There is always something to arouse your interest, whether it is relaxed in a cafe in the river or go through a variety of art exhibitions.
Perhaps the most popular attraction is Les Machines de l’îleAnd it is something you would think to experience in Tokyo, not an underrated French city.
This whimsical world of gigantic mechanical creatures (that you can Ride) is really unique and, believe it or not, is partly inspired by none other than Leonardo da VInci.
In short, everything in Nantes circles back to art in some form, from intriguing museums, galleries and art installations to the culinary arts.
Do not sleep here on the food scene! Make sure you try a glass of muscadet -wine and Gâteau Nantais cake.
Nantes’ new attraction: Sustainability, Affordability and Startup Hub
Digital nomads have been on the receiving side of the debt game. One of those surplus care is the issue of sustainability.
Nomaden should not have any trouble living in Nantes, known for its steadfast green policy to ensure that they are not at the wrong end of headlines, such as other Nomad Havens, such as Bali.
But what is the most important thing, further than feeling welcome and doing well by the planet, it is able to afford to live here in the first place.
Nantes, especially according to French standards, is an affordable city, far away from Paris, with very affordable rental prices.
In fact a separate digital nomade guide Claims that a monthly budget of $ 1840 will get through. A quick search on Airbnb shows centrally located studio apartments for $ 731 per month So this spring that budget checks.
Digital nomads have a variety of jobs, but some take the full to the full by starting their own company, which is seen Nantes as the mini “silicon valley” of France, perfect for drawing up a remote store and mixing with like -minded people .
How long can you stay in France?
