CoLiving Cities in South Africa

Experience the benefits of coliving in South Africa

Think Cape Town. The city mixes mountains, beaches and a creative energy. The vibe is loose. People love the outdoors. Summers are dry and warm. Winters are mild with rain. The culture is a mix of art, food and strong local stories. Most travellers enjoy the markets, street art in Woodstock and wine farms a short drive away. For digital nomads this is a sweet spot. Cost of living is lower than many Western cities but not dirt cheap. Internet is fast in cafes and coworking spaces though some neighborhoods can be slow. There are plenty of coworking hubs and meetups. I once wandered into a small coffee shop in De Waterkant and joined a code sprint. For some this will be amazing. Things to do after work are endless. Hike Table Mountain, surf at Muizenberg or grab tapas in a tiny seaside town. Arguably not perfect for everyone, but it feels alive.
