As a nomad who wouldn't mind settling down, I'm actually more interested in a place where I can register my company with prospects of becoming full-fledged citizen in the future, preferably in somewhat colder regions of the planet. I'm not entirely happy with my current passport, and working out of off-shores doesn't do much good for that.
Anybody can vouch for Philippines? Which city is the best?

I.e. they can support both the "broke artist" lifestyle, and the "upper middle class" lifestyle. Two separate cost distributions.

Secondly, NomadCost != cost of living. NomadCost is based on short-term staying in a hostel, hotel or apartment in the center, working in a coworking space and having a basic meal three times a day. That's the average digital noma…
Can't seem to edit this with chrome, only with IE. Read-only in chrome.

Tried to head over to /r/digitalnomads and it's banned?
Chiang Mai? You clearly haven't been there! It's nice for a holiday but not for living.
