Hey PH 👋 This past New Year, my girlfriend and I broke our apartment lease and took off on a 6-month road trip for our first-ever digital nomad experience. We had an incredible trip, but finding a home that had fast, reliable Wifi and comfortable workspaces was time-consuming and difficult. After interviewing dozens of other nomads, I realized this was a problem every remote worker staying on Airbnb faces. So, I decided to build a Chrome Extension called Offie to make it easier to find the best Airbnbs to work from. Offie works seamlessly with Airbnb by taking Wifi and workspace information from the listing page and bringing it to the search page. No more wasting time looking through photos and getting excited about a listing, only to realize the Wifi is slow! Current Offie features include the following information from a listing: - 📶 Wifi speed test results - 🖥️ Dedicated workspace amenities - ✅ Sentiment analysis on reviews mentioning Wifi Offie is available to download for free on the Chrome store today: https://offie.co Would love to get feedback on other useful features, and I'm happy to answer any questions! - Pat

@patrick_erichsen I stayed in Selina hostels all throughout Central America! The one in Nosara blew me away!

@mitchell_orme just checked it out, looks beautiful! Did you do any surfing there? I spent a month in Honolulu learning this year and am looking for my next spot 👀

@patrick_erichsen The main beach at Nosara (Playa Guiones) has some incredible waves, great for beginners and professionals! The town is really lovely too, and you're isolated in just the right way. The Selina in Nosara used to be a luxury hotel, so you'll be well and truly living the life!

Just came back from a trip to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. This would have been so useful. Already installed it and ready to go for my next trip!

@patrick_erichsen yeah, the wifi was horrible. Had to migrate to a co working space, could not work at home at all.

@_skris Agreed! Airbnb is making improvements in this space, such as their new Verified Wifi Speed test, but there are still a lot of pain points for remote workers on the platform.
