Mauritius · tropical

🌍

Blue Bay (Mauritius) is a village of roughly 2,000 people on an island in Mauritius. The climate is tropical. It keeps a balanced mix of locals and visitors and is considered very safe. A typical month of living costs around $1,350. Healthcare is strong, and the internet is fast enough for full-time remote work. People come here for diving, swimming, quiet days.

È un’isola ben collegata d’estate e molto meno d’inverno, e questo cambia molto per chi ci vive tutto l’anno. È uno dei posti dove vivere fuori rete è davvero praticabile, sia per legge sia per spazio. Il reddito prodotto all’estero in genere non viene tassato qui.
