What
We want to gather builders and cool humans on the Thai island of Ko Phangan for 4 weeks, from April 18th to May 18th 2025. We already have a villa to use as informal coworking and gathering space but the rest is up to you.
A handful of people will stay in the villa itself, we encourage others to find their own lodging nearby. We are keeping things simple: a group chat for coordination, some community dinners and informal unconference-style sessions on weekdays. High-agency individuals welcome; we're not hand-holding.
Why Ko Phangan?
In our opinion, it's one of the best places in the world to nomad:
- Low cost of living, excellent views and beaches, and easy to get modern amenities
- Cost per meal of $2 - $6
- The island culture is fantastic: Muy Thai, multiple ecstatic dances, an active yoga & conscious community
- Accommodation on island for all budgets: from $400/mo bungalows to $10k/mo luxury villas (split with your friends!)
Who We Are
We're two remote-working devs who want to gather like-minded builders:
- Atin: An experienced founder and engineer, working on a new startup
- Jack: A developer focused on AI-augmented building, working as a remote engineering consultant
We're not running a conference; we're simply providing a temporal and physical anchor to gather good souls.
Where
The main villa is between Koh Ma and Chaloklum beach. Book your lodging within a short scooter ride to keep things close.
When
We'll gather from April 18th to May 18th, 2025. This timing is intentional – FlowPhangan ends exactly 7 days before Edge Esmeralda begins, allowing for a seamless flow for those planning to attend both gatherings.
The month-long format gives ample time to settle into a productive rhythm while building meaningful connections.
Interested?
If this resonates, bring your laptop to Ko Phangan in April, and register your interest here to get added to the group chat. Meet other high-agency individuals to exchange ideas and create side-by-side.
