Download the Remote Workers Island Guide

A practical guide for remote workers weighing Nanaimo as a base. Covers the honest commute math, internet by address, a home that works for work, and where to land.

Inside the guide:

  • The draw: a condo-by-the-SkyTrain budget can buy a house with a yard and a real office... and the paycheque from away stretches further here
  • "How often, really"... the honest math on crossing to Vancouver, from a few times a year to weekly, and the one pattern that doesn't fit
  • Every way across when you do go in: the Hullo downtown-to-downtown, the seaplanes, Helijet, and BC Ferries with an Assured Loading card
  • Staying connected: fibre in most towns, satellite for the rural edge, and why you check the address, not the town
  • A home that actually works for work: a real office with a door, two quiet spaces for dual-income households, and room to grow a studio
  • Where remote workers land, from Departure Bay to the Old City to the Comox Valley... and the week it all adds up to
