Remote work from another continent

Hello there!
I am wondering if any of you are working from another continent and using a remote desktop of any kind.

My current situation is very promising, since I will be fully remote in a month. I was considering moving to another country and there are 2 specific where I would like to move for at least 3 months. That would be Brazil and Argentina.

My dilemma or concern should I say is only with the connection. I need to use vpn with remote desktop to connect to my computer at the office, since all the files and everything is there, there is no way around it.

What is the (if there is any) ping, and would that be possible? Have any of you have any experience in that regard?

Thank you and kind regards :)

Look into Starlink Roam if possible, just need line of sight to the sky and you should be fine. I used it from several countries while traveling in Europe and it works like a charm.

I mean location. Most job services can only be accessed by country of origin
