Coworking on the go - exotic office workspace at the palm beach
"Combining the useful and necessary with the pleasure ... A new trendy American concept bleisure (business + leisure) is successfully emerging in unique colors and shapes.
About two-thirds of today's vacationers work or do work-related actions while vacationing and disconnecting from office - or should do - recent studies have shown.
For the younger generations in particular, who are brought up with internet and multimedia, it makes no sense and relevance to distinguish between work and leisure.

Belizesure
The Belize Tourism Board has just launched what you call the world's first coworking space overwater bungalow with attractive sunbathing and diving opportunities just right outside the door.
The exotic Belizeure bungalows lure on the small privately owned island of Tobacco Caye a half hour sailing from the mainland - and with all the necessary work tools in order: Functional wifi, desk with views, refreshing drinks within easy reach, meeting rooms, own kayak parking, wellness center and much more.

"Digital nomads are people who choose to devote themselves to a space-independent, technology-based lifestyle that allows them to travel and work on the go anywhere in the world. Right now, 4.8 million independent workers describe themselves as digital nomads," a US survey of last year stated.
According to this study, one-third of today´s digital nomads are women, half of all over the age of 38, 54% are full-time, 46% are part-time employed, 38% earn max. $10,000 a year, 16% earn +$75,000 - typically in creative job descriptions such as content writers, designers, editors, IT developers, and different experts of marketing and communications.
