Where to base yourself for remote work
Live in one place, work with a team in another. Each guide scores a base city on how well its day overlaps with your team's, the number that decides whether remote life there is sustainable or a nightly grind. Pick a pairing below.
Where are you now?

Not on that day. Saturday is a rest day in both Lisbon and New York. The hours above are what you would share on a day you are both at work.
This is the wedge no other world-clock site touches: not "what time is it there" but "could I actually live here and still work with them." Each pairing turns the raw time difference into a rhythm score, how much of the base city's normal day lands inside the team's working hours, so you can compare Lisbon-for-New-York against Bali-for-Sydney on the one number that matters.
FAQ
What makes a good remote base?
Enough overlap with your team's working day that you can catch meetings without wrecking your evenings, plus cost of living and quality of life. Each page scores the overlap and rhythm for that exact pairing.
Can I factor in cost of living?
Yes, the base finder and the city-vs-city comparisons weigh working-hours overlap together with a cost-of-living index.
