I’m thinking of trying the digital nomad life in 2024 and was wondering what are some safe countries for women with a cost of living of around 1,000 USD or 1,500 USD?

The countries on my list for now are: Taiwan, Malaysia, Bali, and Thailand. However, I am open to other countries.

Thank you all!

    Taiwan should indeed be your number one spot. It’s is very developed and one of the safest country in the world. A woman may walk on street alone at 2am safely, and not being harassed.

    With the current exchange rate of Japanese yen. You can easily live in Japan under $1500 USD. A cheap meal is like $5.

    As you move toward south, to KL, Bali, BK, it gets cheaper, but also not as safe and clean as Japan and Taiwan. (Still safe in international standard lol)

      I’m surprised about Japan. How long has the exchange rates been good for yen? I’ve always thought it was pretty expensive and such. I’m in the process of becoming a DN, and i really would like to visit Japan and stay there a few months/weeks.
