Coworking in Liberland

avatar

Maybe a year ago, or so, my two good friends mentioned to me that they made a deal with the responsible at ARK Liberland Village, that they could use their space every Friday morning for free as a coworking space! Since then, whenever we would talk over GTalk, they would mention how we would go there when I came on my vacation... Well, I was there for 3 weeks and I almost missed doing it! 😃

01.jpg

As I have already mentioned in my previous posts, my whole vacation was more "workation", as I had to do a lot of paperwork that would take more than a half day... And it was multiple days... On the other side, the guy who was organizing that coworking was on vacation himself, so one Friday he couldn't come... The second Friday, there was an event on the Ark and the space was occupied, and finally, 3 days before my trip back, we finally managed to do it!

02.jpg

At the beginning just to clarify one important thing... ARK Liberland Village isn't Liberland itself... It is a small area with a lake in the middle, situated close to the river Danube, in Serbia... Liberland (country) is situated between Serbia and Croatia, an uninhabited stretch of floodplain on the Croatian bank of the Danube... So the place where I was is a kind of their Liberland operational base, if I can say so...

In the image above, you can see one of my friends who invited me to this great place for coworking... My seat was on the left side... There were 6 of us, plus the son of the "President" of Liberland playing games on the computer on the other side... 😂

05.jpg

The part where we were was on the first floor, with that view from the balcony that you can see in the second photo above...

06.jpg

When we made a short break, the guy who was organizing all that invited me for a show around the building and the "village" itself... It's not a real village, but there is a lot of outdoor space... On one side you can see the Bitcoin sign and a large TV, while on the other side, there are big tables, probably for lunch for presenters of different events...

18.jpg

For example, just a few days ago, there was a big conference named Liberpulco, similar to Anarchopulco, with well-known faces from that sphere...

07.jpg

As I was going out of the building, I did the photos a bit in reverse... So the image above is at the left side of the entrance and it is a small kids' corner, where children can play with toys, or be more creative and paint... On the opposite side is a similar (painting) corner (I forgot to take a photo 🤦‍), but for adults...

08.jpg

At the entrance on the porch, from the outside, you can sit on these comfy chairs and enjoy the view!

09.jpg

As Liberland is situated in the middle of the forest, there were no buildings at all (and I think there are still no at the moment)... Because of that, the owner decided to buy this piece of land and make it a "temporary home"...

10.jpg

What you can see in these photos are plans for this area by the previous owner, who didn't manage to build everything that he imagined... Unfortunately, he abandoned his project, and ARK Liberland Village was born... I suppose that these things will never be built, but there are some other plans for future development...

11.jpg


12.jpg

The building on the right side is where the coworking took place... (I did take more photos, but they sucked even more so I didn't publish them...) Behind the tree is visible that it has one floor more on the top...

13.jpg

I took a short tour around the lake and what you can see in the middle is a SAUNA! I didn't try it as it was so hot outside, almost the same as it could be inside... 😂

14.jpg

On the opposite side of the lake, there is a small garden where they have planned some vegetables so that they can serve homegrown food to their guests...

15.jpg

16.jpg

When I was a kid, this lake wasn't a private property and I remember well that I was going there to fish with my grandpa... Believe it or not, I do remember that there was this quince tree, as my grandma was preparing a quince juice and it was my favorite!!

17.jpg

We didn't use this small car for a tour, but it can be useful to go around... 😃 It's a free car! It says that on the sticker... 😃

Thank you for your time,

That looks a pretty interesting place to visit, not just for the co-working, but some great nature and relaxing. Are there any food options there?

We were at the concert a few days BEFORE this, but it was outside the building (waiting for mipiano to create a post 😃)... There were options to buy drinks, but not food... I suppose that when they have some events, they order catering...
The place itself has a lot of potential, but we will see if they will realize it...
The only issue in summer was mosquitos... lol... as it is in the middle of the woods, and there is water... ideal environment for mosquitos... 😂

hahaha no way!!! this is amazing that you get inside Liberland 🤣 when I was much younger, I wanted to be a citizen there and still remain a place I'd have to see one day. It's nice to see they're still up and running. Did you get to meet Vít Jedlička ?

Liberland itself is just a part of the land in the forest... I think there is nothing else there...
What I described in the post is "ARK Liberland Village", which is a place OUTSIDE that forest, in this case, situated in Serbia...

Did you get to meet Vít Jedlička ?

I think that he spends most of the year in that village... Saw him many times, but I didn't talk to him...

But, I have a funny anecdote to tell... 😃 While we were working there, his son was playing games on the other computer... After a while, a woman who works there came up and said to the kid (maybe 3-4 years old child) that his father was looking for him and that they had to go... The kid was ignoring the woman like 100%... ahahahaha... She was begging him, but he just didn't listen and continued playing... lol...

After 15 min, Vít came upstairs, entered the room, clicked on the power-off button, and the problem was solved... ahahahahahaha... It was too funny to watch... 😂

I remembered watching some documentary about the place when I was 19 ish. It was so nice to see a city that has all right constitution that I want to live by. But maybe not so much anymore these days 😂. Their citizenship offer was also tempting, not sure if they can help me unlock EU without a visa haha but I am sure for 10k, there are better deals out there. Also kids will be kids 🤣 but it's so cool you're seeing Vit just casually around there.

Hehehe... It is like that on the paper... But, I was wondering, when was the election for the president? 😂 It is a thin line between freedom and dictatorship... 😃

I didn't... I heard that it costs a lot of money that I don't plan to spend atm for that... 😂 Full citizenship is over 10K USD, and I think that's the main source of funding for them... There is an e-residency that costs around $150...

It looks like an interesting place to be. I think I remember that name before in some Youtube videos but I kind of forgot about it. It wasn't the best coverage but I do think that things take time.

They made a big progress in creating all the important things needed for a country to be "created"... I'm not sure how it will go, but at least there is some progress...

Liberland is smaller than Andorra, hehe… I wouldn't mind spending a season there, it looks like a nice and inspiring place. 😃

This is a small "village" outside Liberland, to be more exact in Serbia...
Liberland itself isn't much bigger than this, but it is in the middle of the forest... On the Croatian side of the Danube...

Andorra compared to Liberland is like comparing Spain to Zaragoza... 😂

I was talking about Liberland yesterday night with @detlevartlev and the German crew. Also similar projects like Honduras' Prospera and Panama's Innovation district.
Also showed them my Liberland resident ID.

I'm not sure how those two work, but Liberland is part of the "nobody's land"... The thing is that this village, where I was is just like their "embassy" outside their country....

I suppose you have an e-residency from Liberland?

See you soon!!! 😃

Didn't know about this Ark village, thank you.

Sauna in the lake? Could be useful in winter to cool off in the cold water !LOLZ

It is an interesting place... I suppose that during the winter isn't as busy as most things are happening in the summer season...
So, a sauna in the winter is a good idea... 😃
