#22: Our digital nomad experience in Peru 🇵🇪 (A full guide)

Back in 2023/24, we spend over two months living, travelling, and working in Peru. Between Lima and Cusco we managed to experience a lot of the local culture, learn about the history, and massively improve our Spanish! So today we wanted to sit down and cover every aspect of digital nomad life in Peru as we could. Sara and I covered the visa, accommodation options, food scene, internet speeds, coworking spaces, and finished off with our opinion on whether Peru could be a long-term nomad base for us...
