Digital nomads—remote workers who leverage technology to live and work from anywhere—are mostly associated with warmer climates and countries with a low cost of living.
The Nordic region, with its cold, dark winters and notoriously expensive prices, rarely features on the hit-list of traveling online entrepreneurs. But all that could be about to change thanks to an initiative known as the Arctic Digital Nomads Grant.
Coworking spaces and communities in the Norwegian fjord village of Geiranger, the settlement of Vágur in the south of the Faroe Islands, and Iceland’s rugged westfjords region have banded together with support from the Nordic Atlantic Cooperation (NORA) to launch the program.
Successful applicants will receive free accommodation and office space for between one and three months between January and April in 2025, together with opportunities to embrace everything that’s great about Arctic culture—from local traditions to outdoor experiences.
