Hanoi
Many would say the coffee alone is worth spending time in the capital of Vietnam. Add in the wonderful food, deeply embedded traditions and low prices for rent and Hanoi seems quite ideal for remote workers. While there is some pollution, the city is safe, full of attractive neighborhoods to explore and home to a unique cultural mix with influences from the Chinese, French and other Southeast Asian countries. There's some great coworking spaces and cafes to work from as well. Escaping the city to explore the Ha Long Bay or the stunning countryside and tribal communities to the north requires only a few hours drive.
