We're wanderers with a purpose

We want to create a community where we will be healthy and joyful - by default. We want to explore the world, work on our goals, learn and do something cool here and there, and do it all together (while helping a few along the way)

All our habitations are designed to include the following elements:

Good for our body – through Yoga, Muay Thai, Kalarippayattu, surfing, scuba and freediving, swimming, running, hiking, and group workouts.
Good for our soul – through meditation, learning, cultivating curiosity, practicing gratitude, and building social connections.
Sessions on science on wellbeing and daily interventions that enhances our wellbeing.
Goal setting and a habit building protocol to motivate each other to stick to the goals and building habits
Slow travel – staying in places weeks at a time, getting to know the places and people deeper
Youth empowerment and environment - through every habitation we will be raising money for youth empowerment and environmental projects in India and Indonesia.

Join us in our adventures.

Who is this for?

This is for those who want to travel the world, a bit slower, a bit deeper. For those who struggle to build healthy habits or pick up new skills alone. For gap year travellers, digital nomads looking for a community with shared goals, to have adventures together, creating stories that will last a life time.

I see all habitations are for 3 weeks. Could i just join for 1 week?

Want to join for just a week? Let’s talk! We do offer one-week stays when possible, but the full 3-week experience is where the magic happens. It is enough time to balance work, learning, and adventure—so you leave with real skills, great habits, and lifelong connections. Send us an inquiry, and we’ll see what’s possible!"
How is Habitation.community a social enterprise?

For every Habitation we organize we have 2 goals 1) to provide an environment for the participants be healthy by default and help them learn new skills and build habits. 2) Raise funds for disadvantaged youth in India and Indonesia to become diving, yoga and martial arts instructors. For 2025 we are partnering with Freediving Coaches of Asia, a registered charity that provides free certified swimming and diving coach training in Asia to provide economic opportunities, to introduce more people to swimming and diving and to protect our already fragile oceans and rivers.
