What’s your background?
We are a Portuguese couple, 23 and 25 years old, originally from the beautiful city of Lisbon. We decided to leave everything behind and went to India, with a one way ticket, 3 days after graduating.
How long have you been working remote?
We have been remote since we started this adventure in November 2017.
What are you currently working on?
Our main focuses at the moment are our Travel Blog and growing our social media presence. Lately we have been investing in Digital Marketing campaigns for products we are affiliated to.
Occasionally we also do influencer, by setting up marketing campaigns to help brands and ideas we believe in.
What’s your favorite thing about Nine?
What we liked the most is the ratio between amazing areas and the amount of people. Amazing workspaces, you have your privacy if needed, but there is always someone available for a chat and activities to join. The rooftop is simply gold. A view of the Volcano on one side and the ocean on the other... Above all, the community atmosphere is remarkable.
The season of Romerias has started! Only last week our community joined the romeria in La Florida, a small village close to Nine.

Janos arrived to Nine a week before the Spanish government announced the lockdown because of COVID-19. What was supposed to be a month stay, turned into a 3 month adventure.
As many others, Alex arrived to Nine just before the COVID-19 lockdown was announced. He became part of the family and stayed with us longer than expected!
