Czechia
Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe and, away from the Old Town, still a reasonable place to live for a season. Czechia pairs it with excellent beer, forests and castles reachable by cheap trains.
Entrada e vistos
Schengen rules apply. Czechia's Digital Nomad programme (2023) is aimed at IT professionals from selected countries and requires a sponsoring arrangement; the long-term visa for business purposes (Zivno) is the traditional freelancer route and involves a trade licence.

Segurança
Very safe. Pickpocketing on tram 22 and around Charles Bridge; currency-exchange scams in Prague's centre (never exchange on the street, and check rates carefully).
