How to Work Remotely from Your Lagos Shortlet : A Digital Nomad Guide.

Introduction:

The rise of remote work has transformed Lagos into an attractive destination for digital nomads

and remote professionals. Here’s how to make your BAHOMES247 shortlet the perfect remote

office.

Internet Connectivity: Your Lifeline All our shortlets come with high-speed internet suitable

for video calls, file uploads, and streaming. Lagos has multiple ISP options including fiber

connections from providers like Spectranet, Swift, and Smile. Most of our properties have

backup internet solutions to keep you connected during rare outages.

Creating Your Workspace: Choose a spot with good natural light, our Lekki and VI

apartments feature large windows perfect for this. Set up your laptop at the dining table or invest

in a small desk if you’re staying long-term. Position yourself away from bedroom areas to

maintain work-life boundaries.

Power Supply Solutions: While Lagos has improved its electricity supply, fluctuations still

occur. Our apartments include inverter systems for uninterrupted power. Keep

devices charged and consider the inverter your safety net for important calls and deadlines.

Time Zone Management Lagos operates on West Africa Time (WAT/GMT+1). If you’re

coordinating with teams in the US, Europe, or Asia, morning hours (6-10 AM) align well with

European afternoons and late US evenings. Plan your schedule accordingly and communicate

your availability clearly.

Productivity During Lagos Hours: Peak productivity happens early morning before Lagos

heat intensifies. The 6 AM-12 PM window offers cooler temperatures and fewer distractions.

Schedule deep work during these hours and reserve afternoons for meetings and lighter tasks.

Coworking Options Nearby Need a change of scenery? Lekki and VI host several coworking

spaces like The Bulb Africa, Workstation, and Co-creation Hub. These offer networking

opportunities, faster internet, and professional meeting rooms when your apartment won't suffice

for client calls.

Staying Healthy While Working Combat sitting with regular walks around your estate. Many of 

Our properties have pools or gyms that  are used during work breaks. Lagos heat and humidity

can be draining, so stay hydrated and keep the AC at comfortable levels.

Food and Meal Planning: Working from home means controlling your diet. Use your fully-

equipped kitchen to prepare healthy meals. Food delivery apps like Glovo, Jumia Food, and

Chowdeck serves our areas excellently for those busy days when cooking isn’t an option.

Networking in Lagos: Join Lagos vibrant tech and business community through events,

meetups, and coworking spaces. The city hosts regular networking events, startup gatherings,

and industry conferences that can enrich your stay beyond work.

Legal Considerations Ensure your visa status allows remote work for foreign companies.

Nigeria offers various visa types; consult with immigration if you’re staying longer than tourist

visas allow. Our team can recommend legal services if needed.
