Work From Mountains: How Much Does It Cost Per Month?

Though I’ve been working location independently since 2016 (as a digital nomad) in the back of my heart I always wanted to rent a property somewhere in the Himalayas and make it my temporary workstation. But because regular freelance travel projects kept coming, I could never do so. I COULD NEVER SLOW DOWN & WORK FROM MOUNTAINS!!

After COVID-19, as the travel industry came to a standstill I found some time to do so too.

In December 2020, I leased an old Himachali House near Manali, shifted my base to the mountains, and started working from the mountains.

And here's a thing: If sea-bathing in seaside resorts can be an upper-class health fad, why can’t work from mountains be a newage middle-class thing?

Tips For Finding Work From Mountains Locations

It has been a few months that I’ve been living my dream and from my experience, here are a few things to keep in mind…

Good phone connectivity. Even if you happen to install wifi at your place and thus get good internet connectivity, make sure you get a good phone network. Speaking of the Himalayan states, Himachal Pradesh has relatively better phone connectivity than Uttarakhand Ladakh and J&K. Himachal is the best place for a staycation experience (or for relocating and working from mountains).

Online delivery service. Since the delivery of goods purchased online is relatively limited in the mountains, ensure that the place you’re renting comes under an online delivery network. If not, figure a local address nearby. Even the most uninterested online shoppers start shopping online in the hills (and I’m saying so out of my experience) thanks to the poor availability of products in local markets.

Keep a private vehicle. Because public transportation in the mountains is comparatively poor and less frequent, it is best to keep a private vehicle to be able to make the most of your work from mountains experience. Weekends are meant to explore nearby destinations.

Learn cooking. If you don’t know how to cook your own food, working from mountains and surviving in the hills will be a challenge, unless, of course, you’re staying in the main tourist town like Almora or Shimla or Rishikesh, or you're renting a private room in a hostel/hotel and eat on-menu.

Alternatively, here are a few other contacts with their respective location...
1) Jay Upadhyaya (MANALI): 9833524761
2) Nitish (NAGGAR): 9736710371
3) The Bunder Hostel (Bir/Dharamshala): 7018040492
4) Vimal (Rishikesh): 8954915552
5) Sachendra (Joshimath/Auli & surrounding): 9404721445
6) Naresh (Shimla/Kotkhai): 9805276310
7) Tushar (Dalhousie): 9882121616

You can mention my name FOOTLOOSE DEV or DEV while speaking to them, and you will be addressed with extra care :)

You must choose offbeat destinations like tirthan valley, Janjehli valley, Karsog valley where crowd is very less and rent is very low.

देवेश भैया अगर यहाँ आपके किरायेदार आ जाएंगे तो आप लोग कहाँ रहेंगे?☺️
भाई ऐसा नहीं हो सकता कि आप भी उस प्रॉपर्टी में रहो और अगर मैं आपकी प्रॉपर्टी को रेंट पर लूँ तो मैं भी उसी में अपने रूम में रहूँ?क्योंकि एकदम से अकेला इंसान तो यहाँ कैसे भी नहीं रह सकता😊
नाम मिला क्या?😛

Is it safe? If I were a robber I would definitely attack a house in nowhere.
