Work remotely from the Nature Island of the Caribbean- Dominica

The pandemic has changed the way people work, live, or even travel. Due to many challenges, working remotely has become a necessity worldwide. As people feel confined working in small spaces, the Caribbean island of Dominica is offering a unique alternative called the "Work in Nature Programme". The Work In Nature (WIN) Extended Stay Visa Programme allows people to relocate to Dominica with family and work remotely for up to 18 months. The island's pristine natural environment gives a joyous and adventurous experience that people usually dream about.[caption id="attachment_41466" align="aligncenter" width="100%"] Trafalgar Falls Dominica[/caption]The handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in Dominica has been exemplary.
