Workation in Kenema: the essentials
Kenema lies inland in eastern Sierra Leone, in a valley at a gap in the Kambui Hills, and with about 255,000 residents it is among the country's largest cities. It grew as a collection point on the old colonial railway for timber, palm produce, cocoa and coffee, and the discovery of alluvial diamonds in 1931 added a second economy that still shapes the town. Today it is the market and administrative centre of the east, with trade links to Liberia, and Gola Rainforest National Park lies to the south-east. Kenema Government Hospital is known for its Lassa fever unit, and visitors are few. The airport at Lungi is about 235 km away.

OpenStreetMap shows no coworking spaces within 10 km of Kenema. Remote work here means falling back on cafés with Wi-Fi or a hotel lobby, and with internet around 5 Mbit/s, heavy video calls are likely to strain the connection.
