Our epic little crew in Panama is on a mission to explore the land in search for the best spots to work and surf. All they have is a Jeep, some boards and each other. What they find is as exciting as the trip itself. Enjoy!

To be continued..

These legends are launching Coworksurf Panama in October!

CWS Panama is our new luxurious coliving resort with solid wifi, the best weekend adventures and waves breaking 100 meters from your window. If you manage to grab the limited launch offer, these are the legends you'll be staying with.

Coworksurf is a coliving space for people who travel and work on the road and value being near the waves, having other awesome people around and are wanting to surf or learn how to surf. We offer accommodation in beautiful locations with a homey community feel, solid shared workspaces and grab & go surfboards.

One of the main reasons why people book with us is the friendly community. Now we are partnering with a resort in Panama to create a sweet coliving paradise there. Check out the beautiful Coworksurf Panama location with more info here.

​Since La Barqueta's uncrowded wave breaks 100 meters from your balcony, it's a perfect match for a central-american Coworksurf.

But, there is one issue: there is no remote worker community... yet. We're building it from scratch. And so we've organized a team to create an instant vibe, make it homey AF and  and spread the word. They will be the Coworksurf Panama beta tester. The explorer. The Columbus of remote work. And the right hand of Donna and Juan to turn their over 80 room resort into a pumping Digital Nomad village. Most importantly, they will be your fam & crew when you're there.

​Meet the amazing CWS Panama launch crew:

Everyone loves a good surf pic. It takes a lot of time, love and commitment to be there to capture special moments but we really froth on some of these guys work.

First up we got Jeremiah Klein  insty/miahklein
Such a sick "pool party" shot.

And this one for the birds.

Doggo's mindsurfing this one.

The apocalypse is coming.

We love Portugal and nobody really captures it like Joao Bracourt insty/​joaobracourt

This drop with this board captured by Matt Hipsley is just insane insty/matthipsley

How's it so fucking clear in Tahiti

John Respondek insty/johnrespondek is always in the water with a solid little crew like Craig Anderson

Or Mr. Kelly.

Simple. CoworkSurf is a coliving space for people who travel and work on the road and want to (learn how to) surf. We offer accommodation in beautiful locations with a homey community, solid shared workspaces and grab & go surfboards.

​​One of the main reasons why people book with us is the friendly community. Now we are partnering up with the lovely Juan and Donna (left picture) from Las Olas resort in Panama to create a sweet coliving paradise there. Check out their beautiful CoworkSurf Panama location with more info here.

​Since La Barqueta's wave breaks 100 meters from your balcony, it's a perfect match for a central-american CoworkSurf.

But, there is one issue: there is no remote worker community yet. We have to build it from scratch. And while we are busy at our other locations, we are giving away free accommodation + free use of surfboards for three to five awesome people to scout the place, help Donna and Juan to make it homey AF and spread the word. You will be the CoworkSurf Panama beta tester. The explorer. The Columbus of remote work. And the right hand of Donna and Juan to turn their over 80 room resort into a pumping Digital Nomad village. Still following? Good.

There are roughly three types of people we are looking for:

1. Videographer / Photographer / Social media legend
You know how to do cool stuff and make it look even cooler on our social media accounts and for the website. We specifically need all the photo's on the Panama homepage to be filled with cool people, and blogs & Instagram stories about adventures, surfs, coworking sessions, workshops etcetera to spread ongoing good vibes from Panama towards the rest of the world.

2. Events / Social connector / Leading host legend
You are the social hero that welcomes every new guest and make them feel at home, and you also know how to keep order. You feel what the community, the other volunteers and Donna & Juan need and initiate fun activities, help facilitate workshops with the guests, throw an occasional mastermind session, and are helping Donna and Juan to see what needs to be improved to create an even better guest experience. Maybe you will even try to fix a partnership with the local motor rental company or get the local supermarket to deliver orders once a week? Anything. (If all goes well we might have an offer for you for the longer term.) 

3. Surf / Activities legend
You take the group out for surfs and lessons and are the overall guide of the ocean. Our guests want to know the ins and outs of surfing, from how to read the waves to making their first turns to what clothes to wear if you want to look like a true beach dude / gal. Next to that, you initiate and help organise activities like mangrove canoe tours or beach BBQs.

4.  Open application
You can be a remote worker who is familiar with coliving spaces and want to be part of the creation of this one, a blogger, a local who knows everything about the area, a still life painter or just a generally awesome person who knows how to get the most out of their day. Let us know why you should come over, we are really open for cool ideas.

This all might sound like a lot of work but you will have enough time for your own projects while you're there. Apply with a buddy if you make a great team.

Practical info

• We're launching the space on September 1, but you're welcome from mid-august onwards.
• Panama has a visa on arrival for 180 days for most countries. Check if yours is included here.
• If you can't make it in September or October, we might have a spot for you later on. Let us know in the form at the end of this page what works best for you. If you want to keep in the loop about similar offers in other upcoming locations, write 'other' as the answer to the availability question in the same form. 
• We can't pay for your flights, but we can pick you up and drop you off at Enrique Malek International Airport. 
• This is where you will be located.

Worst case scenario: You stay in a resort in Panama for a month for free with a bunch of other awesome beta testers.
Best case scenario: You are one of the legends that helped turn this beauty of a place into a thriving Digital Nomad village.

Don't want to help out but do want to stay at CoworkSurf Panama? We got you with our honey-sweet launch offers.

OK, now you know everything about your free stay. Still stoked? We have to meet you. Let's make this happen by clicking 'start' in the form below.

After working with our friend Stian, surf teaching in Portugal we were stoked he and his friend Rolf were keen on setting up a space for remote workers in the beautiful spot of Lofoten, Norway and the teaser video is off the hook. We implore you to check this place out and get your Northern Hemisphere on. 

Here's what Rolf had to say:

​​"Finally the Arctic Coworking Lodge is ready! After months of hard work we are ready to host people. It truly looks amazing and it feels so good to finally be finished. Earlier this year we had filmmakers Pete Veale and Sam Billingham come over to tell our story. Looking back on it now its weird how the space has changed. We want to give a big shout out to everyone that has helped this project succeed. From people that inspired us (like the coworksurf crew), to the people helping us build the space and generally all the awesome human beings we have met along this journey."

So what the heck are you waiting for???

Hey COWORKSURF fam! 
Last Friday we had an epic BBQ at the Villa.
Chef Yve Dynamite (that's me) threw down in the kitchen and on the grill.
It was good fun and we're definitely going to make it a thing.


Here are a few snaps of the day.​

This is my helper Milo.  He's more for moral support.



I spent the afternoon prepping about 4 kilos of meat and making a huge pasta salad.
For the chicken, I made my homemade Teriyaki sauce.
Here are the ingredients:
Fresh (Ginger, Garlic, Pineapple)
Dried (Tumeric, Chili Flakes, Paprika, Basil)
Soy Sauce
Throw it all in the blender!

Here's a bit of Pasta Porn with a 2 Pac soundtrack.

​
Here's a cool clip put together by our favs over at @wandergo_app

​Here at COWORKSURF we strive to create a fun and supportive community beyond what an average coliving or homestay would offer.  
We see the value in genuine connections between the guests and since we always have such an awesome crowd, that never seems to be a problem here.

This past week we held a Mastermind Session thanks to the inspiration of one of CWS legend's, Pier.
​

We currently have a full house of creatives and professionals so it was a perfect meeting of the minds.
For those of you that don't know what a Mastermind Session is, let me break it down for you.

According to Forbes Magazine, "A mastermind group is designed to help you navigate through challenges using the collective intelligence of others."

The evening started off with a Bintang run (local Bali beer) to Pepito's because statistics show that Bintangs help get the creative juices flowing.
(Don't quote me on that)

Then we started off by checking into the session which involved answering the following 3 questions.

How did you feel when you woke up today?
If there's one problem in the world you could solve today, what would it be?
How do you feel right now?

Just about everyone in the group answered "excited" for the last question, which is awesome!

We sat down at the table and received a sheet of paper and a pen.
In the meantime Pier drew this stunning diagram on the whiteboard.

He's quite the artist right?

He explained to us that each of us needs to choose one project or issue in our lives at the moment that we'd like to share and get  advice about.
This diagram highlighted the fact that the topic could be in reference to your health, relationships, schedule, or job/finances.
Once we figured out what our topic of discussion would be, we had to answer a couple more questions.
This time we got a few minutes to ponder and then write them down.  

Here are the questions....
What are you working on?
What is going well?
What is not going so well?
What would you like advice on?

​(a bit messy I know, don't judge)

During my 6 minutes of fame, I was able to elaborate a bit more but I made sure to leave a good chunk of time for feedback from the group.
So by peeking at my answers, you can get an idea of what I'm working on and the advice I was seeking.  
I was quite lucky because there were 3 extremely talented content creators/vloggers/social media savants in the group.
Their advice was so spot on and obviously straight from personal experience.  

Not only did I walk away with great tips and goals to work on in the upcoming week but I also learned a lot about my CWS community.
The days to follow, I had roomies come up to me and ask how is the filming going?
Do you need help with this or that?

I think that when traveling and working remotely, it can be difficult to make genuine connections with others.
I've noticed that while staying here at CWS, that hasn't been an issue at all!
The general vibe of the staff and the guests is very inviting and gives you a great sense of belonging. 
So, if you're looking for a home away from home where you can plan how you're going to take over the world.
Look no further.  COWORKSURF is the bomb.com!
