In the countryside near Setubal, a colourful fishermen town. Setubal is a bay on the Atlantic coast. Only 35 minutes from the Lisbon airport. Sende Portugal is being built under the shade of cork and oak trees. Only 20 minutes from the beach.
Finished rebuilding of the first cottage/house that will be used as the first coworking space and the kitchen.
We built big common toilets.
We also built a storage where we keep all camping equipment. Another half of the storage is a tool workshop.
Then we built big outdoor tables where 50+ people can dine together.
We are finishing the building of outdoor kitchen.
There is plan to build an open-air tool-workshop where we will draw, build anything, and experiment (together).
This place was completely empty, except one ruin. We managed to bring electricity, water, and fiber optics (fast internet connection).
We organize and host events. We use coworking and coliving as a tool to work on these events.
Each multi-day event starts with getting to know each other and group building. Once we have a strong group, the rest is easy.
We work with international partners, educators, and companies.
We work on different educational events from innovation, entrepreneurship, tech, to peace building and conflict.
We also work with companies who need to work on specific problem or a new strategy or a concept. Especially when they need to leave their offices to focus in another environment.
