Traveling and working: where the laptop meets the sea.

Sometimes inspiration strikes not in the office, but over a cup of Greek coffee on a terrace overlooking olive trees. My journey to a "life on the move" began in Corfu —an island of emerald slopes and tranquil sunrises. It was there that I first realized that work and travel can go hand in hand, as long as there's peace, stable Wi-Fi, and a little magic around you.

Today I'm sharing a selection of places where you can work and live in harmony. Where the day begins with the sea and ends with ideas.

🇬🇷 Greece – inspiration and balance

1. Kinsterna Hotel , Peloponnese. Workdays are spent here in an ancient stone estate with gardens and views of the Aegean Sea. The perfect combination: slow living, fresh air, wine from the vineyards, and fast internet. (Insert affiliate link - Booking / Agoda)

2. One&Only Aesthesis , Athens . A resort inspired by the Riviera's golden age. Spacious terraces, light, sea, and an atmosphere that writes itself. (affiliate link)

3. Eliamos Villas , Kefalonia. Modern villas with pools, Ionian Sea views, and perfect Wi-Fi. Morning yoga, afternoon work, and evening strolls along the coast. (affiliate link)

🇪🇸 Spain – energy and light

4. Málaga Slow Suites, Málaga Apartments in the historic center, where the sun kisses the walls, and the working day smoothly turns into an evening stroll along the promenade.

5. Las Palmas Digital Nomad Hub, Gran Canaria. A city of digital nomads—cafes, coworking spaces, surfing, and a climate of eternal summer. (You can add a link to Nomad List or GetYourGuide for tours.)

🇵🇹 Portugal – Moving in Harmony

6. Selina Lisbon : A coworking hotel in the heart of Lisbon. Downstairs is a café, upstairs is a terrace overlooking the red rooftops, and in the evenings, there are lectures and creative workshops.

7. Outsite Madeira: Secluded villas for digital nomads in Madeira. Here, the ocean, pine air, and endless horizon come together.

🇮🇹 Italy – slow mornings and a taste of life

8. Masseria Moroseta, Apulia. A white villa nestled among olive trees, home to artists, writers, and photographers. No rush—just inspiration and natural wine in the evenings.

Work & Wander philosophy

Work and travel are not opposites. They share a rhythm, if you can hear it: morning – the sea, afternoon – work, evening – inspiration. It is in these moments that ideas, texts, and dreams are born.
