hangten


I had a good time here. The internet at my stay was terrible for gaming. Most restaurants had awful food, but a few were decent: Hangten, Nomad Café, and Rise. Hangten is a great place for breakfast; beautiful rooftop view.

There aren’t many cars, so renting a bike for daily commutes was awesome. Outpost is a solid spot to work, though it gets really busy during "hot seasons." I went in Sep and it was pretty quiet.

I stayed for two weeks and wouldn't recommend staying longer. There aren't many tourist spots, though there are some nice neighboring cities for weekend trips.

    Values shown are estimated visits by traveling remote workers based on the total amount of trips logged by Nomads.com members. Visits to a place are only counted once per year per user, even if they visit more in that year. Visits are also normalized by overall trips added per month on the site, so if site usage goes up or down it does not affect trends. Not all digital nomads are on Nomads.com, and not all Nomads.com members log their trips. So the data is only indicative.





    The chart below shows visitors by nationality normalized for population size. This means we take all trips logged on Nomads.com, check which country of origin the user is from, then divide that total visit count by the country of origin's population. If we didn't, it'd just show the big countries like US, Brazil and India always on top. Instead, this shows which nationalities worldwide proportionally visit more or less, which is more useful.
