Looking to get your seaside hustle on? Lima is the PERFECT city for you. On the lifestyle side of things, Peru’s capital has comfortable temperatures year-round and a view overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Lima also has some of the world’s most delicious, yet affordably priced seafood.
¿Hablas español? Don’t feel ashamed about your answer to this question. If you don’t speak any Spanish, you’ll still be able to get around Lima comfortably — especially if you stay in upscale neighborhoods that cater to Gringos like Miraflores and Barranco.
And if you do speak even a little español… You’ll appreciate that the locals in Lima have some of the world’s easiest to understand Spanish. ¡Excelente!
Like we said earlier, however, Lima also has no shortage of business opportunities. One of Latin America’s most important financial centers, the Lima metropolitan area is home to more than 7,000 factories. These factories produce textiles, clothing, food, and more.
Apart from a potential place to source your product, Lima is also a great place to build your team. Lima has TONS of universities. In fact, Lima has the highest concentration of universities on the entire continent of South America!
What does this mean for you? Lots of talent available for hire, at prices the USA or Western Europe simply can’t compete with.
Finally, Lima is an easily accessible city. You can fly to Lima directly from:
- NYC
- Los Angeles
- Dallas
- Miami
- Washington D.C.
- Toronto
- Madrid
- London
- Paris
And more… including TONS of connections around South America.

Residencia Coworking
If this post’s opening sentence, “Ready to get your seaside hustle on?” appealed to you, you’ll love being a member of Residencia Coworking. Just a 10-minute walk from the coast, a beachside stroll during lunch is the most popular way community members relax after an intense morning of work.
If it’s too hot one day or you’re just not a beach person, there’s also plenty of trees to sit under at the nearby Armendariz park. Of course, you’re not joining this space just for its location.
As a member of Residencia Coworking, most of your time will probably be spent pounding away on your computer or meeting with clients.
Fortunately, Residencia Coworking will help you excel at both activities. For grinding away on your computer, Residencia offers a spacious work environment and natural lighting that’s easy on the eyes.
For meeting clients, there’s a dedicated meeting room on-site along with the possibility of the previously mentioned beach stroll or park gathering.
Finally, you’ll love this space because you can be as deeply involved with the community as you’d like.
Interested in joining weekly accountability challenges and having other members hold you accountable? The option is available.
If you’re just looking for a quiet place to work and you’d prefer to keep to yourself, however, the community will also respect your needs.
