Community

Immerse in the authentic life of a small fishing village, kitesurfing amongst humpback whales, working together with a small community of like-minded nomads, and living free-spirited within nature. A close community of 5 to 15 easy-going, outdoors, open-minded nomads with an intriguing combination of digital nomads with kids. The typical stay is a week to 3 months.

Depending on the season (for example, kite season) we offer different activities for our residents.
For one months stays onwards we organize different tours.

Top Questions

Will I have privacy?

Yes, you do. We live closely together, sharing lots of meals, though we recognize that being alone is as important. From your private room, over cute corners in the common spaces, to the garden and the deserted beach give for amazing recharging time.

Are pets allowed?

Yes, we have a lot of freerunning space for them. We have 3 house dogs and 2 cats as well.
There are no fences around though, maybe not be the best fit if your pet tends to run away.

Can I split the rent with my partner or a friend?

We have a different price for 2 people in 1 room.

Is there a designated space for work?

Yes, we have two work areas. One is a work+relax space with low and high tables and hammocks. The second is a work focus-only space with a large shared desk.

What types of people will I be sharing the home with?

Long term colivers from western and south american countries, valuing sharing and community, outdoors and nature, slowing down, curious about cultural differences, and a fair and sustainable world. We aim for the inspiring mix of nomads traveling solo and nomadic families. Expect a small community between 5 to 15 people.
