Working on-the-go is found to be very normal across the surveyed nations however only a few limited activities can be accessed. 49 percent of the respondents informed that cafes are convenient for checking emails yet not for writing back replies, whereas 39 percent informed that they might prefer cafes for writing back short replies however cannot work in such an environment for long.
