"If you can find a home that provides not just a roof, but also a support system and feeling of belonging, it doesn’t matter how many detours your story has taken."
I'm in the same nomadic boat. While most of my travels are spent in ecovillages and visiting community spaces to study them, I am craving a nest.
So I am moving to La Ecovilla, a sustainable community in Costa Rica. I had the best times when I was traveling in a group, and will always have that as my preference.
This was beautiful to read! Thank you for sharing. I’d really love to hear about what two places you’ll be trying out. My partner and I have the same criteria for a place to live and we’re planning to explore more in the coming years to figure out what place feels best. Safe and happy travels to you!
Excellent article Emily! Very cool that you've found a way to build a co-living style community like this.
I spent 5 weeks snowboarding in Lake Tahoe and working remotely with college friends at the beginning of my nomad journey and it stands as one of my favorite travel experiences. There's something special about getting to travel, work, and pursue hobbies with good friends - it almost feels like a cheat code.
Emily, this articulates so much of what I've been craving with the mix of travel and community. And how certain past situations - both traveling with groups AND just living as a solo adult - weren't quite as satisfying as I wanted them to be. Thank you for sharing.
