I stayed on the island in front of Cancun for a whole month and I loved working remotely there!

Could you make a video about good, reputable, and affordable online courses for those who want to become digital nomads? I'm a career changer myself. I worked in gastronomy for many years and I would love to try something new. I'm thinking about UI/UX. Thanks!

I’m not even a digital nomad, but I really enjoy your content. I’m planning on living and working abroad once I get my pension from my current job. Keep up the great work!

Isla is our favorite island ever - and we've been to Santorini! We've done a lot of what you've beautifully documented. I did pick up some fun ideas though for our October visit. Thanks! BTW, we are dog people and I love your pup. Do a second video documenting the places like Isla Animals, The Woman's Beading Co-op.

Was there in '88!! Omg...so different, very rustic, not commercialized in any way. It was so enchanting and breath taking beautiful. The boat taken over there was an overloaded fisherman type boat. Really unsafe. We took the last boats back to the mainland and had to take a local bus back to town. It was all locals, chickens....bang on the walls to get the bus to stop. You would have loved it back then.

Love the video. Some of these digital nomads absolutely are working little to none. I worked out of Mexico City for a month. Looking into Tulum, Playa Del Carmen or Islas Mujeres. Coming out for a month with my wife, son, and dog. Which of the three do you suggest more?

@sergiosala Жыл бұрын

Man, really depends what you like. PDC is more of a city vibe. Tulum is more beach & fancy dinners. Isla Mujeres is relaxing

Excellent video! I've been working remotely on Isla Mujeres for 3+ months now and you covered pretty much everything on the island. The only thing missing was the 3 loncherias close to Selina that sell very good and cheap meals (50-120 pesos) plus the very decent market nearby and the HUGE Chedari supermarket that has pretty much everything you could want. How much did you pay for your Airbnb out of curiosity?

I love your page, thanks for all the great info. I’m traveling to Isla M. In February, stable WiFi for zoom calls is important during normal business hours. Does Nomad Hostel have working spaces that are more like an office environment, similar to what you showed at Selina? On zoom calls I would prefer to not be outdoors as my coworkers aren’t aware of my travels.

This is a great Travel Vlog video, But it is NOT a "Living in Isla Mujeres" video. You cannot do a Living anywhere if you're only staying for 2 weeks. That's a vacation...You need to stay somewhere for 3 months to really do a "Living Here" video, Seriously. However that being said; it is a really cool video and a Great Travel vlog...good job...Title is a little misleading though..
