Newsletter by Nomad Magazine to keep you inspired and connected

March 2026

What's happening in the nomad world

New articles Β· upcoming events Β· coworking spaces Β· community news

This month's newsletter is way too packed, we have to admit. There is just too much happening in the world right now, and we can't help it. Alongside long lines at US airports and rising oil risk that pushes petrol prices up, we asked our Nomad Directory partners what's happening on their side, and here is our "short" collection.

Three new articles on the site, a bunch of events across Europe, Asia, and beyond, a brand new coliving villa opening in Madeira, and announcements from the community building tools, retreats, and spaces for nomads.

Scroll through, grab what's useful, and share anything that might be relevant for someone in your network. That's what keeps this community going. πŸ™Œ
