South Africa is set to introduce a new digital nomad visa, but the question remains: is it a worthwhile option?
Digital Nomad Visas (DNVs) represent a significant advancement in the nomad subculture, akin to the emergence of digital nomadism itself. These visas not only validate the status of these workers and acknowledge them as a distinct community but also provide them with a viable pathway to migration. Relocating to another country can be an arduous ordeal, with the myriad bureaucratic hurdles and intricate visa procedures involved. For years, digital nomads found themselves marginalized, as many countries reserved residence permits for highly-skilled workers with local employment contracts. However, the landscape has shifted significantly. Now, over half the globe provides Digital Nomad Visas (DNVs), spanning from South America's Brazil and Colombia to Europe's Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Croatia, and extending to Asia's wellness retreats in Thailand and Bali.
Travelers now have access to visit an unknown region of Japan, courtesy of the newly opened bullet train.
With travel back in full swing, one destination has firmly established itself on every traveler's bucket list and "best destinations" index: Japan. This iconic Asian country is cherished for its stunning temples, futuristic cities, and breathtaking natural landscapes.

As tourist arrivals continue to surge, Japan has implemented new regulations to mitigate potential negative impacts from overtourism. Despite the widespread hype surrounding Japan, there are still regions that have largely gone unnoticed and remain off the beaten path. Chances are, you've never heard of the Fukui prefecture in Japan—and neither have most people. This means you'll encounter fewer tourists at cultural attractions and enjoy more solitude in nature.
