When you have the option to work from anywhere in the world the next question is or should be where do you go? To save you time with crunching numbers and overthinking back and forth we picked locations based on these key factors.

<ol>
	<li>Safety - &nbsp;Before moving to a new city, it is important to know how safe it is for expats. For this, we took a look into other people&#39;s experiences and respected and authoritative sources to determine which are the safest digital nomad cities in the world.</li>
	<li>Culture - One of the biggest reasons to travel is to discover a new culture. Some of the cities in this list are known to attract tourists from around the world to experience living in their customs and festivals.</li>
	<li>Accessibility - What makes a city digital nomad-friendly are the facilities that are available to make the city accessible to others. This means having a well-developed infrastructure and English translation for signs and shops wherever needed. In addition to this facilities for the specially abled or those travelling with family or pets are a major positive.</li>
	<li>Economy - One of the major factors when considering a place to visit is the economy of that country. It&rsquo;s important to determine the inflation and expenses that could occur when staying there.</li>
	<li>Diversity - &nbsp;Usually travellers prefer a city that is more diverse in terms of its residents. This helps them in seeking communities in case of any issues they face.</li>

<h2>Facts About San Francisco - The Top Ones</h2>

<h4>Here&rsquo;s taking a look at some exciting facts about San Francisco:</h4>

&nbsp;

<h3>1. Golden Gate Park outstrips Central Park</h3>

It may come as a surprise to many people. Yet, it is true! The Golden Gate Park is bigger than the more famous Central Park in NYC. The latter covers 778 acres while the former covers a mega 1017 acres. It is a fact that few people know about one of the city&rsquo;s famous landmarks. Talk of an oasis of green and they have it in the heart of San Francisco!

<h3>2. The City has its Own Fog</h3>

As hilarious as it sounds, San Francisco has its own fog. And it has a name- Karl. They have been calling it Karl for years now. The locals use this name for the infamous fog. The origins are still unclear; many believe it came from the Big Fish movie in 2003. The movie had a giant named Karl. Many others believe it has been Karl for several decades.

<h3>3. The Chinese Fortune Cookie was Born Here</h3>

San Francisco is its birthplace. Makoto Hagiwara invented it in the late 1890s here. He was a Japanese immigrant to the city. The cookie was a big draw at the Tea Garden, Golden Gate Park. When in San Francisco, you can consider visiting Chinatown. It is home to the Ross Alley fortune cookie manufacturing unit. You can watch the making process and have a swell time. You can also buy them mint-fresh afterwards.

<h3>4. The Sea Lions Arrived After 1989</h3>

Many people believe that they are permanent natives. The fact is that they only came after 1989. They have been at Pier 39 in Fisherman&rsquo;s Wharf ever since. The reasons are still unknown. The 1989 earthquake may have driven the shift. Businesses on the wharf were earlier averse to them. Yet, they are now big tourist attractions in spite of their loud noises.

<h3>&nbsp;</h3>

<h3>5. Imagine a Black &amp; Golden Bridge</h3>

The Golden Gate Bridge could have been golden and black. It would have been the same as many bridges in the early-20th century. The current bright hue was an accident. Irving Morrow, the consulting architect for the bridge holds responsibility. He saw the eye-catching red hue of the primer coat on some steel portions. He finally managed to convince the authorities about it. He also talked of how the red-orangish hue would be fitting for several reasons. He pictured it against the fog, sky and hills. Morrow&rsquo;s imagination made the bridge what it is today.

<h3>6. North America&rsquo;s Oldest Chinatown</h3>

San Francisco has North America&rsquo;s oldest <a href="https://www.thesqua.re/san-francisco/chinatown/serviced-apartments">Chinatown</a>. Founded in 1848, this Chinatown covers a mile in its length. It is the second biggest Chinatown outside the Asian continent. A trip here is a must for all travelers to San Francisco.

<h3>7. The City has 50+ Hills</h3>

San Francisco has lovely hilly terrain as most people know. Yet, many people feel that there are 7-9 hills here. The city actually has 50+ hills with names. Some of the famous ones include Nob Hill and Russian Hill. You can also check out the Telegraph Hill. Other hills which are not well-known include Tank Hill and Golden Mine Hill. The Excelsior Heights zone is also worth visiting.

<h3>8. The City is Quite Small in Reality</h3>

Many visitors testify to the vastness of the city, with 7 million people. Yet, it is quite small in reality. It covers only 7 miles in both width and length. San Francisco is easier to visit at a go. You can see a lot of things in a single day here.

<h3>9. Alcatraz has a Non-Prison History</h3>

Alcatraz (pelican in the Spanish language) was different. It was a military fort before becoming a prison in 1934. Famous prisoners include Al Capone and Robert Stroud. Another famous prisoner was George Kelly. They came to Alcatraz via train. The wardens were always nervous about security. They often ended up loading the train car onto a barge. This used to take place without them unloading the prisoners and shifting them to boats!

<h3>10. USA&rsquo;s Biggest Japantown</h3>

It is not only about checking out Chinatown. San Francisco is also home to the biggest <a href="https://www.thesqua.re/san-francisco/japantown/serviced-apartments">Japantown</a> in the country. California State was once home to 43 unique such developments. Yet, after the Second World War, many of them folded up. There are only three in the USA as per reports. The oldest and biggest of them is in San Francisco. The other two Japantown developments are in Los Angeles and San Jose. You should visit Japantown for a yummy sushi meal.

<h2>Bonus Fact&mdash;San Francisco had a Different Name</h2>

San Francisco owes its start to European settlers. They set up their tents here, founding the city in 1776. It had a different name earlier till 1846. Before the renaming exercise, Yerba Buena was its name. It means good herb in the Spanish language. The name came from the wild mint growing around the local area.

Today, environmental consciousness and sustainability are important in many aspects of life, including travel and lodging. Innovative technologies are helping us reduce our carbon footprint and make eco-friendly choices. EcoGrade is a pioneering platform that is changing how we choose accommodations. EcoGrade helps travellers make eco-friendly choices while being comfortable using data and technology.

&nbsp;

Understanding Environmental Impact through Comprehensive Assessment

&nbsp;

EcoGrade transforms how we view our properties&#39; environmental impact. It digs deeper than typical measurements to show an apartment&#39;s sustainability impact. The way the platform works is based on four key areas: energy efficiency, energy use, green energy suppliers, and green transportation. To accurately measure the apartment&#39;s environmental impact, each category is carefully assessed.

&nbsp;

Energy Efficiency

&nbsp;

We scrutinize the design and construction of our apartments to ensure they meet the highest energy efficiency standards. By evaluating factors like insulation, lighting, and appliance efficiency, we guarantee that every unit operates in an environmentally conscious manner.

&nbsp;

Energy Consumption

&nbsp;

Understanding how much energy is consumed during your stay is crucial. Our meticulous data collection and analysis enable us to pinpoint areas for improvement and encourage responsible energy usage.

&nbsp;

Green Energy Suppliers

&nbsp;

We take pride in collaborating with renewable energy providers to ensure that the power consumed during your stay comes from clean, sustainable sources. By supporting these providers, we contribute to the reduction of carbon emissions and the promotion of a greener energy landscape.

&nbsp;

Green Transportation

&nbsp;

Getting around sustainably is a key aspect of reducing our carbon footprint. We evaluate the accessibility of public transportation, bike-sharing programs, and other eco-friendly options near our apartments. This empowers our guests to make environmentally conscious transportation choices.

&nbsp;

Accuracy and Reliability

&nbsp;

When it comes to environmental impact assessment, accuracy is paramount. That&#39;s why we rely on a robust combination of government-approved data and insights from Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) experts. By employing this comprehensive approach, we ensure that our conclusions are based on reliable, verified information.

&nbsp;

Empowering Eco-Conscious Choices: A Bright Future Ahead

The Future of Corporate Travel

<img alt="Corporate Traveller" src="https://images.thesqua.re/blog/uploads/2023/08/22/futureofcorporatetravelblogimage.jpg" style="height:422px; width:750px" />

The business travel industry is changing at a rate never seen before in today&#39;s fast-paced world. Technology, evolving company goals, and global events have all contributed to a change in how businesses approach travel. 

&nbsp;

1. Changes Caused by New Technologies: Technology innovations are altering all facets of business travel and thereby shaping its future. Technology plays a vital role in every aspect of a trip, from planning and arranging activities to keeping track of costs and making sure everyone stays safe. Individual preferences and cost-effectiveness are taken into consideration by AI and ML algorithms that are being used to optimise travel plans. More and more, travellers and their managers are relying on smartphone applications as the go-to source for managing all aspects of their trip.

&nbsp;

2. Rise of Sustainable Travel:

Sustainable tourism is growing in popularity as companies see the importance of social responsibility. More and more, eco-friendly planning is a priority for businesses when organising business travels. According to the numbers, there is a rising demand for eco-friendly lodgings, electric vehicle rentals, and carbon offset initiatives. This movement not only fits in with the company&#39;s core principles, but also strikes a chord with today&#39;s ecologically aware workforce.

&nbsp;

3. Data-Driven Decision Making:

Business choices can be improved by the examination of past business trips, related costs, and comments from employees who took part in such trips. With the use of predictive analytics, businesses can plan ahead for peak travel seasons and negotiate more favourable pricing with suppliers. In addition, having access to real-time information on travel delays allows businesses to react quickly to unanticipated incidents, therefore maximising traveller safety and minimising inconveniences.

Companies are taking precautions to ensure the safety of their employees who travel, such as using data analytics for risk assessment and real-time tracking of employees. This protects both the employee and the company&#39;s good name.

&nbsp;

4. Bleisure Travel -&nbsp;Bleisure travel, a hybrid of business and pleasure, is on the rise as employees look for personal growth opportunities outside the office. Evidence supports this &quot;bleisure&quot; trend, as employees who prolong business visits for leisure purposes report greater satisfaction with their jobs and less stress. Companies are taking notice, and some are even advocating for this as a means of improving employees&#39; health and happiness.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

6. Flexible Policies in the Post-Pandemic Era:&nbsp;

Remote work and online conferences have become increasingly popular as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, which has altered the traditional business travel scene. Once again, adaptability is a must when travelling. Companies are rethinking their travel rules, allowing for more flexible work arrangements after trips, and questioning the value of in-person meetings. The future of business conferences is likely to be shaped by hybrid models that blend virtual and in-person elements.

Businesses that take note of these developments will be better prepared to make the most of their corporate travel dollars as they adapt to the changing market. Businesses can keep their corporate travel programmes flexible, effective, and in line with the demands of today&#39;s workforce by utilising data and remaining alert to new developments in the industry.

Introducing the EcoGrade Sustainability Programme: Discover and Promote the Sustainability of Your Serviced Apartment

&nbsp;

Lead the Way in Eco-Friendly Initiatives for the Accommodation Industry

&nbsp;

As a responsible global player, TheSqua.re is committed to taking meaningful steps towards a more sustainable future. In line with their dedication to eco-friendly practices, TheSqua.re proudly introduce the EcoGrade Sustainability Programme, an initiative that allows apartment suppliers to show off the sustainability ratings for their apartments.&nbsp;

 
&nbsp;

Understanding Environmental Impact, One Stay at a Time

&nbsp;

EcoGrade is a groundbreaking system that quantifies the sustainability of your stay in a serviced apartment. Regardless of geographical location, power sources, or weather conditions, the star ratings translate intricate carbon calculations into straightforward decisions. By harnessing advanced data processing techniques and the world&#39;s finest data sources, EcoGrade transform complexity into clarity for our users.

&nbsp;

Data-Backed Transparency

&nbsp;

EcoGrade&#39;s accuracy rests on the foundation of accurate reporting across various sustainability categories for multiple regions. The revolutionary tool tackles the challenge of sourcing reliable data on buildings, energy suppliers, and transport systems, ensuring that the numbers EcoGrade present are factual, not fictional&mdash;something our competitors often overlook.

&nbsp;

Why Join the EcoGrade Sustainability Programme?

&nbsp;

The Sustainability Programme utilises EcoGrade, which offers automatic scores for apartment listings using vetted, government-approved data sources. The Sustainability Programme invites apartment suppliers to update and fine-tune the information used for their properties, thereby ensuring precision and relevance.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

EcoGrade has received recognition at the Business Travel Awards Europe 2023, winning the Achievement in Sustainability for Accommodation Providers. &ldquo;The judges commended this provider for developing a tool that utilises artificial intelligence and measures energy efficiency, energy consumption, green energy suppliers and green transportation to provide an overall score for each unit, allowing customers to make carbon-conscious decisions at the time of booking&rdquo; (BTN Europe, 2023)

&nbsp;

The outcome? A Verified EcoGrade Score for each certified listing, showcasing the apartment suppliers&rsquo; commitment to a more sustainable world.

&nbsp;

By joining the EcoGrade Sustainability Programme, not only do apartment suppliers to a greener future but also secure a competitive advantage in the market. By having the sustainability rating for each property visible, larger corporate clients who have to meet their own environmental goals will be encouraged to book these apartments. Guests, from corporate travellers to families alike, will also take into consideration the sustainability rating.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

As the landscape of corporate responsibility evolves, aligning with environmentally transparency is becoming an essential driver of success.&nbsp;

 
&nbsp;

Complete Guidelines for Improving Your Apartment&rsquo;s Sustainability Rating

&nbsp;

Once certified, the EcoGrade tool provides you with a personalized and thorough set of instructions to help boost the sustainability rating of your property. This not only raises your EcoGrade score, but also lessens the environmental impact of your property, ultimately leading to cost savings for you.

 
&nbsp;

EcoGrade by TheSqua.re: A New Era of Sustainability

<img alt="TheSqua.re EcoGrade Tool at the Forefront of Change" src="https://images.thesqua.re/blog/uploads/2023/07/26/thesquares-ecograde-tool-at-the-forefront-of-change.jpg" style="height:856px; width:1522px" />

Climate change is regarded as the biggest threat facing the 21st century. The unsustainable use of natural resources, over-consumption, pollution, and waste have detrimental effects on the Earth&rsquo;s climate and economy.

As a part of the global economy, we must integrate environmental concerns into our business operations.&nbsp;

So, what is EcoGrade?&nbsp;

In today&rsquo;s world of eco-awareness, we are all rightly concerned about the effects of our actions on the environment. Unfortunately, most methods of reporting today quote CO2 figures - which are wildly inaccurate for properties because CO2 consumption varies daily depending on which sources of power happen to be in use (coal, wind, nuclear). The numbers also depend on where the apartment might be located, its size and even the weather.

EcoGrade is a measure of how sustainable a stay will be in one of <a href="https://www.thesqua.re/">TheSqua.re&rsquo;s apartments</a>, regardless of power sources, regions, number of bedrooms, or weather. The world&rsquo;s best data sources for every region are gathered and advanced computer science and data processing methods convert complexity into simplicity for their users.&nbsp;

How is this made possible?&nbsp;

Four factors are assessed and combined into an easy-to-understand display and rating, visible on TheSqua.re&rsquo;s website and the booking confirmation. These are:

<ol>
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal">Energy Use</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal">Energy Efficiency</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal">Green Suppliers&nbsp;</li>
	<li style="list-style-type:decimal">Proximity to Green Transportation</li>
</ol>

But who is EcoGrade for?

Whether you&rsquo;re an individual choosing an apartment and you want to do something to help the planet, or whether you&rsquo;re a corporation that has a much bigger kind of environmental impact to worry about through all your employees travelling a lot, <a href="https://www.thesqua.re/products/eco-grade">EcoGrade</a> helps to provide other understandable solutions to get a better grip on what your environmental impact would be.&nbsp;

EcoGrade now covers all apartments across the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, and Spain.&nbsp;

And also, EcoGrade received recognition at the <a href="https://www.thesqua.re/blog/thesquare-wins-achievement-sustainability-accommodations-providers-award-2023-europe">Business Travel Awards Europe 2023, WINNING the Achievement in Sustainability for Accommodation Providers award</a>.&nbsp;

On the 22nd of May, Founder and CEO, Sid Narang attended BTN Group&rsquo;s annual Business Travel Sustainability Summit Europe as a speaker on the Supplier Sustainability Innovations Panel. Sid joined the Director of <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/uber-for-business/" style="text-decoration:none">Uber for Business</a> UK, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAAAm5qxgBLykQcv3EYVs2rsdmSz0jfnqwF04" style="text-decoration:none">Jenna Brown</a>, and the Senior Director of Sales Northern Europe for <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/lufthansa-group/" style="text-decoration:none">Lufthansa Group</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ACoAACoBR_IBuw_T8tMwPztZ9fvsnt0UWQ-i9_w" style="text-decoration:none">Heinrich Lange</a>, on the panel. The discussion offered the latest on what airlines, accommodation providers, and ground transportation companies are investing in that can significantly reduce emissions going forward.

This topic resonates very well with us, at TheSqua.re. We have implemented a variety of measures to reduce emissions, and more recently, EcoGrade. Ecograde is a new and better way of understanding the environmental impact of a stay in a serviced apartment, regardless of power sources, regions, number of bedrooms, or weather.&nbsp;

In the evening, it was time for the Business Travel Sustainability Awards Europe. We were shortlisted for the Achievement in Sustainability for Accommodation Providers, alongside Hilton and Radisson Hotel Group. The award &ldquo;goes to the accommodation provider that has distinguished itself by demonstrating dedication to and achievement in reducing the environmental impact of its internal operations and/or that of its customers&rdquo; (Business Travel Sustainability Awards, 2023).&nbsp;

And we won!&nbsp;

&ldquo;The judges commended this provider for developing a tool that utilises artificial intelligence and measures energy efficiency, energy consumption, green energy suppliers and green transportation to provide an overall score for each unit, allowing customers to make carbon-conscious decisions at the time of booking&rdquo; (BTN Europe, 2023).

It is great to have our efforts to reduce the environmental impact of a guest&rsquo;s bookings recognised at such an important summit and awards ceremony.&nbsp;
