Tayler Gill spent a month in 2022 with a remote-work program in Ponta do Sol, Portugal.
Ponta do Sol has a population of fewer than 9,000, and is encouraging remote workers to move there.
Gill bonded with many of the other traveling workers, but felt isolated from the local community.

Tayler Gill started working abroad in May 2018, when she spent 11 months bouncing around New Zealand house sitting while on a working holiday visa.
