“My husband is a teacher and teaches his students online and I am a writer and therefore work remotely. We wanted to become digital nomads, but we didn’t really know how to go about it and we didn’t have much idea where we wanted to start setting up seasonally. I contacted Orience through their website, and they told us about the different programs and options we had around the world. In the next few months we will apply for the non-profit visa in Spain to settle in the country for a season and continue developing our professional career from any remote location.”
