An interesting initiative from Turkey! As a digital nomad, I am considering using this visa 🌍✨ Working from different parts of the world is the dream of many freelancers!

It's really cool that Turkey is opening its doors to remote workers. However, the requirement of $3,000 of income per month may scare off some potential nomads 💸 Isn't it too much for beginners?

Wondering what they offer digital nomads in their cities? Are there special co-working spaces, community events and infrastructure for nomads? 🤔 This is also important for a comfortable workflow when traveling.

A good opportunity for Ukrainians who were forced to leave because of the war. At least for those who can continue to work remotely 💻 Turkey is close, the climate is warm, and the visa allows you to stay for a year.

These fashionable things for young people are funny! Digital nomads, remote robots... 🙄 In my time, people sat in one place and worked as they saw fit. And now no matter where you go - everyone is forever traveling and working on the go.

I see pros and cons in such a visa. On the one hand, freedom of movement and the opportunity to live in different countries. 🌎 But on the other hand, you will have to travel constantly and it may be difficult to establish a long-term relationship.

I wonder if it is possible to bring a family with you with such a visa? There should also be some conditions for nomads with children 👨👩👧 For example, the opportunity to place a child in a local school.

I would try! 💪 For me, as a freelancer, this is an ideal opportunity to combine work and travel. In addition, Turkey is a beautiful and sunny country with an interesting culture 🌞🕌
