For Amir, an IT Support Engineer at Keylane, this opportunity opened the door to a long-held dream: spending a month living and working in Madrid. He used the programme to immerse himself in the Spanish culture and enjoy a new environment. This left Amir afterwards with more clarity and energy than expected.

Discovering Madrid Like a Local

Amir had always been curious about Madrid’s atmosphere, food, and lively streets. Thus, the Work From Abroad policy gave him the chance to experience the city in a meaningful way; an experience beyond that of a tourist.

He describes this month as a series of discoveries. Between his daily tasks; he wandered through historic neighbourhoods, tried local dishes and settled into the rhythm of Madrid. Working from a new environment encouraged him to break routines and stay inspired.

After four weeks away, I felt as if I’d taken a long holiday. I came back with fresh energy and a clear head, which made me ready to start new projects.

Returning Refreshed and Recharged

What surprised Amir most was the impact this experience had on him and his headspace. Despite working full-time while abroad, he returned to the office with renewed motivation.

Amir ensured that his time in Madrid won’t be his last Work From Abroad experience. With encouragement from his manager and the flexibility of Keylane, Amir is already planning for his next destination. This time, he aims for the United States!

Therefore for him, the freedom to work elsewhere has become part of how he balances his professional focus alongside personal growth.
