I’m thinking of trying the digital nomad life in 2024 and was wondering what are some safe countries for women with a cost of living of around 1,000 USD or 1,500 USD?
The countries on my list for now are: Taiwan, Malaysia, Bali, and Thailand. However, I am open to other countries.
Thank you all!
None. You’re always the victim.
I felt super safe in Albania
The Balkans are perfect in that regard, very safe for women. Cheap (Cheaper compared to W Europe, its still somewhat on the pricey side especially in the capitals) and but the standards of living are lower and much of the public institutional suck.
You must be white
Are you timezone locked? Some places in Brazil would allow you to live with said budget
Come to kathmandu, Nepal. Very cheap compared to SE Asian countries.
But the visa is expensive and the internet is notoriously bad…
It’s also not super cheap when you consider what you get in return imo
You could do Argentina or Chile especially if you’re willing to do shared housing such as a room in an airbnb or a hostel. private airbnbs are 40 to 50 usd a night for something really nice. I would definitely consider them. I’m in argentina now.
Taiwan should indeed be your number one spot. It’s is very developed and one of the safest country in the world. A woman may walk on street alone at 2am safely, and not being harassed.
With the current exchange rate of Japanese yen. You can easily live in Japan under $1500 USD. A cheap meal is like $5.
As you move toward south, to KL, Bali, BK, it gets cheaper, but also not as safe and clean as Japan and Taiwan. (Still safe in international standard lol)
I’m wondering about taiwan, there’s always a rumour that china is going to invade taiwan, what’s the probability on that?
Pretty likely.
For Taiwan, what do recommend for low-budget housing?
I’m surprised about Japan. How long has the exchange rates been good for yen? I’ve always thought it was pretty expensive and such. I’m in the process of becoming a DN, and i really would like to visit Japan and stay there a few months/weeks.
I’m going to albania. Hoping it’s safe, have heard good things
Macedonia you can live like a queen here with 1500
How much would it cost to just live like a normal person?
Siargao / boracay philippines
Balkan
Mauritius!
Nairobi-Kenya… It has high-speed internet connectivity, Low cost of living, affordable housing in high-end suburbs, a Vibrant Tech community & excellent infrastructure
I recommend the Philippines! Low cost and safe for women (I’m a single female digital nomad) and have visited a few times but have lived for 6 months as an adult as well.
Japan, especially if you’re okay with cubical hotels and if you have a rail pass.
