Selina Welcomes Back Digital Nomads with New Safety Procedures

For Coworkaholics, it’s been difficult doing the whole only work-from-home thing. We’re craving a chance to get back to working in a coworking space again. But we’ll only do it, if safety is guaranteed. We can hold off from non-socially distant interactions. But we can’t wait to get back into our favorite spaces to spark up some productivity. Luckily, a digital nomad favorite, Selina, is back and ready to welcome us back safely again. 

Since Deskpass released their new safety program, we are discovering more coworking companies and locations making their own safety adjustments as well. Selinas around the country, another coworking favorite, are open with new safety measures

We’ve done reviews on Selina spaces in Mexico City, Playa del Carmen, and Oaxaca before. And we hope to explore many more locations soon. There are four locations in the U.S. If you’re like us, and ready to get back to the lifestyle we so love as digital nomads, check out one of the U.S. Selina locations. This may be the way to vacation and work this year. There are locations in New York City, Miami, and New Orleans. All of them have the following safety measures now in place:

Booking

It’s easy to navigate the Selina site to find a private room within an hour’s notice. The Selina app works best for booking activities, but will score you a room for a few dollars less than third party booking sites. And right now, Selina is encouraging guests to stay longer in order to get a larger percentage off your stay. With Selina’s new safety procedures in place, this is a fun and safe way to get back into coworking.
