Cool places to work in London if you’re a digital nomad
With the number of self-employed on the rise and freelancers making up 15% of the population, being your own boss is on trend.
The trouble is, despite many people going freelance to get out of the office, working from home can be lonely and isolating. According to Mind, 25% of freelancers have experienced poor mental health as a result.
With that said, sometimes you need a change of scenery, an energy boost and a bit of buzz; three things that these cool places to work in London, all serve up.
