Nope I do as well, despite being owned by an international company. Wankers.Am I the only person with a clause saying I can't work from outside of the UK?
Cote d'Azur excursions

- Start date
I came on here to recommend that along with a little back lane restaurant in Antibes which didn't have a menu and just served you what they had on. Beautiful beef ragu followed by lemon tart when I was there. I have absolutely no idea where it is or what it was called and it was thirteen years ago so no point on me being on this thread really, but I hope the OP has a pleasant time on his jaunt.

I work for myself. No clauses.
No, my lass is going to Cannes Lions for work so we’ve decided to make it into an extended trip.
I worked from abroad for a month last year and had a blast though.
Noted, thanks.

Antibe was lovely, well worth visit. Pissed down when we were there like. Theres another one further east from monaco aswell, cant remember name
Edit Menton
Avoid Grasse.
I am fortunate that I work on a project with engineering / procurement offices in Japan, Construction in Texas and supplies from all over the world.Am I the only person with a clause saying I can't work from outside of the UK?
Attitude is wherever I am will work for some, not others thus they don’t much care as long as I am doing the job.
Seville and then a Dubrovnik return next.

No but she goes every year. That's why I was meant to be going to SXSW last month but I had to sack it off for work and lost over a grand on the flights.
Hopefully this makes up for it somewhat.

Oh I thought Antibes was lovely. If you got loads of time take a trip to San Remo over the border that's a nice wee town but gets very crowded in the summer, about an hour in the train. And of course Pompei (?) and HerculaneumI'd give Antibes a miss
Beaulieu is nice but next door is St Jean Cap Ferat - that is a beautiful walk and a pretty harbour (with some sandy beaches) - A friend has a boat there (look at me)
You can get a bus there from Nice - or get a train to Beaulieu and walk (a picturesque 20 minute walk past David Nivens old house - truly stunning location)
God I just had a mind fact there cos I was also talking about Amalfi with someone there. Ignore the old Roman town bit ☺

Aye, I've never understood why it's in all the recommended places to visit. It's a f***ing dump.
Sunday market along in Ventimiglia is supposed to be good. I've never managed to wake up early enough or without a rank hangover to manage to get to it.
Hire bikes and cycle up the Col d'Eze.

Antibes definitely worth a visit for a chilled vibe sitting in the bars watching the world go by, find out when the jazz festival is on.
Port Grimaud near Saint Tropez an option for a day trip or combine with sť T.
It's a pleasant town built right on the sea and there's cheapish boat hire to dawdle round the town on. Decent restaurants etc

Been in Mexico down to SA ages now.
You a copywriter mate, or did I get that wrong?
My company is gonna go bust, had a good ride doing this last few years, my job is quite niche so if I want remote again gonn have to work hard in UK again...dreading it!
Sorry to derail your thread btw just interesting seeing someone do the same thing.
ha I was there with my ex lass other year, advertising I take it?
Agreed on others, Monaco is a miss for me.

Yes that’s right, both correct.
Last year was the first time I bothered trying working remotely from abroad, which is ridiculous really considering I have barely set foot in an office since 2019.
I tend to have to work 9-6 UK hours though so being outside of Europe would be a no go anyway.
Last year i just did it for a month with the intention of f***ing off for the rest of the year but life got in the way and I ended up staying in London after a stint back home.
Do we work in the same industry then?
Definitely doing the boat thing like. Cheers.

The employers that allow it, tend to be in the minority tbh.
If you handle personal data, it tends to be an instant no from an employer due to risk.

It’s more tax and payroll issues companies put it in.
I've stayed in Antibes and Beaulieu-sur-Mer, both very nice.

You can go light a tab off the Olympic flame, hang about and catch Olympic football and the finish of the tour de France.
Going to be busy this summer Nice hope you've got your digs sorted.
