Digital Nomads: Why remote workers are flocking to a Bulgarian mountain town
Description
November 25, 2023
A small town in Bulgaria is attracting a new kind of visitor: digital nomads. This alternative lifestyle, whereby people travel and work simultaneously, existed before the pandemic. But since then, digital nomadism went from niche to normal - rejecting and redefining the traditional idea of work life. For The New Reality, Krista Hessey takes us inside Bansko to discover what’s bringing hundreds of remote workers, including Canadians, to this quaint mountainside town.
