Today at Camp Nomadia was an epic adventure in community building.  When we ‘UNorganized’ this camp (which is now at about 80 folks), we asked folks to bring parts to construct a central shade structure).  Our camp came through in amazing ways.. we spent a couple hours together today bonding over constructing a shade structure capable of hosting our upcoming Technomadic Lifestyle Workshop.  Our motivation? Setting up a community shared bar :)

Our camp brought shade structures, tarps, lights, decorations, rebar, and ping pong balls (who would have imaged THOSE came in useful??). It was an epic adventure of crowdsourcing and making due with what we have.  In the truest of nomadic ways.

We had our first Nomadic Happy Hour today… and it was.. epic.   We had folks inspired by what Camp Nomadia is all about come to visit.. including Ted Beatie of Vagabonding.com (who we actually serendipitously had Indian tacos with on our way into Burning Man) and Leigh Shulman of Matador Travel (who the rest of the folks are coming to join us later this week at Camp Nomadia).

It’s been an amazing day.. and we’ve really not even left camp yet!  Now we’re off with dear friends to explore the rest of Burning Man! (Sorry.. not taking the camera).

    That would be crowd sourcing then. Looks grea!

  3. Have fun you guys. I recall reading that you met up Japhy, I lost the link to his blog, can you post it so I can reconnect with him through his blog?
