Bangus Nomad Spotlight

Hi, I’m Kimberly!

I’m a “Bangus Nomad” from the Philippines.

I’ve worked remotely overseas in Singapore and explored 7 provinces in the Philippines (For 4 years now)! Each new places takes me to the wonder of nature while enjoying my freedom in working anywhere!

When I’m not in my laptop you will see me on the road with my husband discovering different restaurants and activities and adventures that we can do together!

Describe your perfect workday as a Bangus Nomad—what's your office view, what’s for lunch, and how do you unwind after a day of remote hustle?

My perfect view would be in front of  the beach, eating tapsilog and fresh juice and I go for a swim or run after work!

If you could teleport to any place in the Philippines or abroad to set up your next remote workspace, where would it be and why?

It would be anywhere in Europe because I love how classical the buildings sceneries there.

If you could recruit any famous Filipino to join you for a day as a Bangus Nomad, who would it be, and what would you two get up to?

Nadine Lustre, because she’s a baddie!!! We would be in an island swimming, surfing and taking cute pics while enjoying our wine and salaaaaad!

If “Working Remotely” had a theme song for your journey, what would it be and why?

Feeling Good by Michael Bublé. The song says it all, having working remotely gave me an opportunity to live the life I’ve always dreamed of.

We’re buzzing with excitement for Bangus Nomad Workation! 🎉 

This is your chance to dive into a lively meetup with fellow Bangus Nomads, where you can cowork, connect, and enjoy a coffee or beer together. ☕🍻

Imagine the energy of brainstorming side by side, sharing stories of your latest adventures, and unwinding with great company. Whether you’re here to get some work done or just want to chill and chat, this is the perfect midweek boost.
