My inbox is a weird and wonderful place, full of people pitching ideas, sending abuse, and generally complaining about articles written by an opinionated foreigner. But few emails have given me as much pleasure in recent times as a recent one from our dear Zagreb Digital Nomad Ambassador for December, Anna Maria Kochanska, who continues her ambassadorial duties long after leaving Croatia.
Anna Maria’s email was to introduce the owner of the first digital nomad business and travel club, Johannes Voelkner from Nomadbase, to the teams at Digital Nomad Association Croatia, Saltwater Nomads, and TCN. Having already delivered award-winning projects such as Zagreb Digital Nomad Week (in association with Zagreb Tourist Board) and Dubrovnik Digital Nomads-in-Residence (in association with Dubrovnik Tourist Board and the City of Dubrovnik), Anna Maria felt they were the right partners to help Johannes deliver his next event in Croatia.
And what an event it will be!
Johannes is the founder of Noamdcruise and Nomadbase. Back in 2019, before the pandemic, he hosted the world’s first largescale cruise for digital nomads, some 492 like-minded people who spent a stimulating time onboard, remote working, taking part in seminars, workshops and other events, and enjoying a ready-made social life.
Corona forced a rethink and so Nomadbase was born, a chance for community members to meet together again and rekindle old friendships and make new ones. Several hundred community members reconvened for a week in Paphos, Cyprus back in October, and again in Mexico last month. And, after some very productive discussions, Nomadbase has announced the next destination will be Croatia.
It’s official! The Nomadbase community is meeting in Croatia in the spring of 2022. We can’t wait to discover the amazing Mediterranean together with the community. To get the latest news and special discounts for #nblcroatia, simply sign up so we can keep you in the loop.
There will be a 7-day Nomadbase conference from May 9-15. We are working with Johannes on the details and then the location will be announced, probably later this month.
But I would like to encourage any Nomadbase community members (and anyone else) coming to Croatia for the conference to consider making plans for Croatia as their remote office from late April until late June when the Bankso Nomad Festival takes place. We have several very cool nomad events which will be announced shortly, as well as some special packages and experiences for Nomadbase community members.
You can join the Nomadbase Facebook community, as well as keep track of Nomadbase Croatia updates here.
You can also get an overview of the energy and synergy of the nomad movement in Croatia with an overview of last week’s Digital Nomad Reflection Day.
