☆ South Korea digital nomad visa: what to know
  + stars: | 2024-02-22 | by ( Lilit Marcus | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min

The site ranks South Korea highly for nightlife and youth culture, but gives lower marks for LGBT acceptance and English-language accessibility. Meanwhile, South Korea places 49 out of 113 countries on the English Proficiency Index, which puts it in the “moderate” category. Still, Humphries is undeterred in his quest for the South Korea “workation” visa and plans to base himself in Seoul if approved. “The South Korean digital nomad visa is a great step forward for allowing foreigners to reside in the country,” he says.

☆ Burning Man Is Always a Crisis. But Burners Like Me Know This Time Is Different. - The New York Times

The past two years, I’ve asked myself that question more times than in all the years before. I can see Burning Man — a gathering of more than 70,000 people in a sere and beautiful northwestern Nevada desert full of art and music and foolishness and delight — headed for the climate emergency’s cliff edge. It may not move, it may not end, but it will change. This year started off as one for the history books. Obviously, the weather at the ending was also one for the history books — for very different reasons.

This summer, workers might be feeling more heat from their overused laptops than beach-time sun. The winter brought flurries of layoffs that left companies across industries with less labor power. The result: 68% of Americans report that they work on vacation, according to a May survey from online learning platform Elvtr. According to a report by market research firm Harris Poll and the HR software platform Ceridian, 67% of American employees who planned to take a summer vacation this year say that might no longer be possible.

More remote workers are traveling without their employer's permission, also known as "hush trips." "Anybody loves the opportunity to be productive in paradise rather than in their home office," Pokora told Insider. "I think as long as remote work stays an option and working from home in general we're going to see more of this." Hush trips are the most recent addition to the growing lexicon at the intersection of work and travel, joining longtime favorites "bleisure," "workation" and "digital nomad." On the employer's side, hush trips can cause tax and legal headaches if they go on for too long, Courtney Leyes, a partner at the law firm Fisher Phillips, told Insider.
