I have been looking for the best Digital Nomad retreats in the world and found a few very interesting events happening in 2022. My plan is to join a Nomad Retreat later in the year so I started looking online at what is out there.
What I look for is not just the speakers (but I would want to hear from people who have done what I would like to do in business), but also the networking opportunities, collaboration, fun events & time to just hang out and chat with like minded online business owners.
Here is a list of the best nomad retreats / co-working retreats coming up this year. If you are hosting a Digital Nomad Retreat or a Co-Working Blogger event and want to be included then please reach out to let us know.
π What is a Co-Working retreat?
A co-working retreat is a place for people to come together, hang out, have fun and get some work done. The idea is to mix fun, business and collaborations. A good co-working retreat will have structure, a plan for events and be mindful to ensure the atendees have a good time, plenty of learning and leave refreshed with a new level of motivation and encouragement for their business.

β
Affiliate World Europe
This may not be the #1 conference that comes to mind whan you think of a Digital Nomad conference but hear me out! I went to the Affiliate World Conference in Barcelona to learn more about eCommerce, Paid media buying & being an affiliate marketer. The calabire of speakers was impressive and the combination of weather, location, people and mixers made it a really good conference to me.
I bumped into Ezra Firestone while at Affiliate World in Barcelona in 2019. We ended up having dinner in his hotel with a few other online business owners and Ezra’s team which was a lot of fun.
I met Email Marketing Agency Owners, Dropshippers, Affiliate Marketers, Bloggers, Paid Ads Exprets, facebook Ads Experts, Youtube Ads agency owners. Honestly – it was a really good conference. Thankfully, if you can not attend you can watch the speakers talks on the Affiliate World Youtube Channel, but of course the best part is the beach-side after drinks, dinners etc.
