In today's adventure, I decided to switch up my work setting and take you along for the ride as I settled into a beach hotel, a truly delightful one at that, promising excellent wifi for a productive workday. I'm a proud minimalist, equipped with nothing more than my trusty Osprey Nebula 32L backpack, housing all my essentials, weighing in at less than 10 kg - clothes, shoes, electronics, toothbrush, toothpaste, and soap neatly stowed away.
As I prepared for my excursion, I emptied my backpack, leaving only the electronics inside. The first leg of my journey involved catching a tuktuk to the beach hotel, where I was greeted by a friendly security guard who welcomed me with a warm "caribou" - a precursor to the enchanted world that awaited beyond the imposing iron gate.
Following the security guard's directions, I wandered along a path lined with quaint cottages available for rent until I reached a breathtaking scene: a pool, a bar, and a restaurant all nestled within a lush, jungle-like resort. I chose the pavilion as my workspace for the day, offering a panoramic view of the resort on one side and a stunning vista of the beach with its powdery white sands on the other.
However, my plans hit a snag when I discovered that the promised wifi wasn't functional in the pavilion. Attempts to relocate to the restaurant and poolside in search of a stable connection proved futile, eventually forcing me to rely on my mobile data to salvage a couple of hours of work amidst picturesque surroundings.
In true African fashion, the assurance of good wifi often falls short of reality, leading to a day filled with beautiful scenery but a less-than-productive workday. Nonetheless, I made the most of it, even indulging in a delectable pizza during my quest for a functioning wifi connection.
As the day wound down, I packed up my laptop and headed back to my temporary abode. In hindsight, it wasn't the most productive workday, but it was undeniably a picturesque and enchanting mobile home-office experience. Take a peek at the photos to capture a glimpse of this unique workspace.
