What makes a digital nomad want to consider Manila? For many, it is not the first city that comes to mind, but for those looking for something comparatively different, it can serve as a worthwhile option. Unlike boring sterile expat colonies, Manila offers vibrant, bustling city life (without knocking) complemented by some major nomad perks: reliable English-speaking services during the daily grind, the best bang for your buck, and astounding connection speeds. The best part is discovering the sprawling community of remote workers who have tuned into the city’s rhythm – it is one of the best emerging hotspots. The city pulses with energy while a raw vitality keeps it compelling.
