Workation in Bo: the essentials

Some 250 km east-southeast of Freetown, Bo is an inland city of about 223,000 people in southern Sierra Leone. It is the financial, educational and economic centre of the Southern Province, home to Njala University and the long-established Bo School. English is the official language, while Krio and Mende are what you hear on the street. Foreigners here are mostly aid and development staff, and the city is not set up for visitors. Power cuts are common across the country, and the international airport at Lungi is about 175 km away, with a considerably longer road journey.
