Working from Guanajuato, Mexico

For the last month, we’ve been working from our apartment in Guanajuato, Mexico. I’ve put a few details together here to help people understand what we do while working on the road. It’s also super helpful for me to see all this info in one place.


Working while traveling is something I’m really enjoying. It’s great to be working in different timezones to my clients. The mornings here are the wee hours in New Zealand, meaning there are no interuptions through email or phone, so I’m super productive in those hours. 4pm here is 9am in New Zealand, so the emails start coming in then.

The Guanajuato Workspace

I’ve worked from our apartment this month, there is a small table here that allows me enough space to do what I need to do, even while eating breakfast. The wifi here is super fast and we haven’t had any issues with it at all.

Shops are close and the center of Guanajuato is only a 10-15 minute walk.

I saw a co-working space in Guanajuato CBD, about 15 minutes walk from our apartment, and I’ve only just found their details online now. To work in the workspace is only 40 peso per day ($3.20nzd), something that I should have tried for a few days! Details of that workspace are here.

The apartment that we are in at the time of writing this post is $605nzd per month.
