Long-Stay Arrangements

In the new world of remote work, living abroad sounds way more attractive these days. The dream job for a digital nomad. With its stunning scenery, friendly people, and low cost of living, countries in East Africa are the best destinations for work, relaxation, fun, adventures, wanders, and more.

It’s hard to go at it on your own. As avid travelers and digital nomads ourselves, we understand the importance of connecting and working with folks who have been in that particular country for at least a few years. That’s us! We’ve been around for 11 years.

Our staff can provide guidance and/or manage your entire transition and the day-to-day needs. You can trust that we use absolute transparency, vetted service providers, and record-keeping methods.

Our properties come equipped with things you’ll need like Wi-Fi connectivity and working spaces, and we can also help you find eco-friendly lodging that supports local communities and minimize their environmental footprint. This is easier done in rural areas or upcountry. We’ll also provide you with a list of sustainable activities you can partake in on your days off (guided or not).

We’d love to hear all about your travel goals and expectations. Contact us and let’s start the conversation.

Here are some specific ways that we can help you travel sustainably in East Africa:

We always aim to pair our caring clients with service providers who actively use sustainability practices in their day-to-day movements. Using renewable energy, recycling waste systems, hiring community members, and sourcing food from local farms matter to us all.
