I'm not that surprised. A lot of countries and other government entities have tried attracting digital nomads with various schemes. What is El Salvador going to offer that is a plus to other places?

It is now one of the safest countries in the world, which is quite the feat given that at one point, even if briefly, years ago, was the worst in the world. Worse than say Iraq during their civil war caused by the USA after their invasion and their ISIS period. Also safer than the USA.

Also the weather, the world-class surfing, vistas, the food and the party lifestyle. Sister recently moved there.
