Small steps, but every month, one step forward.
Croatia’s digital nomad story has been one of rapid progress, from being only the second country in Europe to offer a digital nomad visa at the beginning of last year, to being named as the second most-like country for nomads in the influential NomadList survey just 9 months later (with Zagreb as the fifth most-liked city).
Nomadbase, the first business and travel club for digital nomads, has chosen Primosten, Croatia as only its third location in May, and the CIty of Dubrovnik and Dubrovnik Tourist Board, in association with Saltwater Nomads, has just announced a new Work. Place. Culture. conference from May 5-7.
But while the global headlines continue to be very favourable, arguably the better story is what is happening on the ground, and the Digital Nomad Association Croatia – the first of its kind in the world – is proving to be very effective glue gelling all aspects and initiatives of Croatia’s digital nomads push.
One great initiative which started last month was Digital Nomad we{dn}esdays, a chance for nomads, wannabe nomads, those interested to learn more about the nomad lifestyle, and anyone else to meet for a drink at a designated nomad bar for drinks, networking and friendship. Last month’s inaugural we{dn}sdays had events in six particpating cities, and this month, that number has been expanded to 8. It all starts at 19:00 on Wednesday, March 16, at the following locations:
Swanky Monkey in Zagreb, The Daltonist in Split, Mama’s in Dubrovnik, Beach Bar Bamboo in Zadar, Rakhia Bar in Rijeka, Klun Kotac in Pula, Rubicon Pubin Osijek, and Circolo in Rovinj.
See you there!
