THE IDEA

Your own project.
A little more company.

Make progress.

Pick a goal for your time here. Make time for focused work, share what you’re making and get feedback from people working towards their own goals.

Swap what you know.

Learn content, code, design or business from each other. Share a skill, work through a problem, or get a fresh perspective on something you’re making.

Have a life here.

Spend one to three months in one of my favourite cities in Southeast Asia, with shared meals, training, great food and a community to enjoy it with.

A NOTE FROM JAKE

Good things happen
when people overlap.

Hey, I’m Jake. I make videos explaining how the world is changing, and I spend part of the year in Da Nang.

In August, I helped bring people together here to work on projects, share skills and get to know the city. It was one of the best months of my life.

I’d love to help more of that happen in 2027. First, I want to know who’s coming and what you’d like to do together.

See you in Da Nang,
Jake

A FEW THINGS TO KNOW

Before you
book a flight.

Is this a paid programme?

This is a free interest list. I’m finding out who’s coming and what we’d enjoy doing together. You arrange your own travel and accommodation. Any organised activities or paid options will be explained separately before you decide.

Do I have to stay for the whole season?

No. Come for a few weeks or a few months. Tell me when you might be here so we can see who overlaps. February to May is the period I’m gauging interest in, rather than a fixed event schedule.

What if I already live in Da Nang?

You’re very welcome. This is about finding good people and doing things together, whether you’re arriving or already call the city home.

Do I need a finished idea or a big audience?

Neither. A project, a skill you’d like to learn or something you’re curious about is a good place to start.

Where should I start planning?
