Valencia was an experience well worth exploring. Marina couldn't have been a better community leader. If you're on the fence, quit hesitating. Pull the trigger, now.

This is my 4th month in the last 12 months with Remote Year and my second time visiting Valencia. I've truly enjoyed spending time with other travelers exploring new cities and sharing experiences.

Hanoi is a lovely bustling city. Trang is highly professional, quick to respond and incredible efficient in all of her efforts; She alone is the reason I am not giving this month a one star. Unfortunately, The co-working space did not lend itself to a positive or productive working environment. This space was used for social events and blurred the boundaries for those who needed a quiet and focused workspace. This space was also poorly maintained and serviced resulting in overflowing trash and molded dishes on several occasions. I would not recommend this place as a productive or enjoyable month as I was stuck in my room a lot due to lack of quiet or clean working space.

Staff is very human and supportive! Prices are a bit high but they save you a ton of time and stress of planning for your next activity while you are working and enjoying those actvities that you are doing now.

My first RY proper experience. Loved 99% of it. My apartment in Buenos Aires was great; that’s often a complaint amongst reviews, but I have no complaints at all. The workspace was good, the neighborhood was amazing, side activities were fun, and our country leader/program leader Ignacio was amazing. Buenos Aires is a fantastic city, and RY was a great way to see it. I would’ve loved to have stayed longer.

I simply cannot put into words and give it the proper justice it deserves how incredibly transformative my experience has been with the 4 months in Africa journey (Kwame). Having just completed what was one of the most exhilarating, surreal, mind-blowing 4.5 months with some of the most dedicated RY staff, I was able to challenge myself culturally, spiritually, and socially. My phenomenal community leader Eunice made me feel so welcomed and included and I think this experience is perfect for anyone who has an open mind, is willing to learn, is a flexible traveler, and wants to be part of a community. I will be forever grateful for having done this journey and all the kudos to the incredible RY team that made it all happen. My trip consisted of Marrakech, Nairobi, Dar Es Salaam, and Cape Town and all exceeded expectations.

I had the best month in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania. I'm so sad to be leaving. The apartments, the co-working space, our group, our amazing city leader John, food, experiences, and culture were all so great. I would do Dar with RY again! John went above and beyond for us, asante sana.

Have had a fantastic 2 months with Remote Year! The community is great, the city guides have been amazing, and they set up some fun activities for us. Highly recommended if your job allows you to work remotely.
