Shared office spaces, also known as “Hackerspace”, were created by a group of computer engineers in Berlin in 1995. Today, many coworking spaces are being built around the world, to locals, but also for new travelers such as digital nomads.
To recreate the office environment, coworking spaces are shared by workers around the world and in several cities. It is also an ideal place for the digital nomad, who works remotely, to find this office world while meeting other digital nomads. Although the atmosphere is productive, the benefit is high-speed internet. It is important that the location is inspiring and creative so that a worker can be productive in their professional missions.
