Abstract :Technological advancements and the global impact of the coronavirus pandemic have led to changes in people’s work patterns and travel habits, bringing the concept of digital nomadism to the forefront. At its core, digital nomadism involves individuals managing their work remotely while traveling to different parts of the world. This new tourist profile, characterized by a unique lifestyle and work style maintained in various attractive tourism destinations, necessitates research within the tourism literature. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to determine digital nomads’ views on destination selection and co-working spaces. Data for the study were collected from 10 digital nomads via phone and email between June 10, 2024, and June 25, 2024. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the data. The results of the analysis indicate that digital nomads prefer destinations that are inexpensive, peaceful, warm, have minimal time differences, and do not require visas. It was found that their positive impact on the destinations they inhabit includes contributions to the local economy. For digital nomads, the availability of necessary materials, a strong internet infrastructure, and the location of co-working spaces are of significant importance. Nomads with a high workload tend to work in quiet areas such as cafes, beaches, and hotels, while those with a lighter workload prefer co-working spaces. Additionally, it was discovered that co-working spaces contribute to individuals’ creativity and assist in determining their next travel destination.
