My boyfriend and I have been traveling the world while staying in co-living places for a few months now. Every time we move to a new country, we have to search for the perfect location that provides the type of accommodation which we need, find out if there is a coworking space which we can use and decide if we would fit in the community. It’s a time consuming activity and, especially when you travel with one or more people, it can become very difficult to find the place that best fits your needs.
And that's why we came up with nanuk 😊
We put together a list of more than one hundred co-living places around the world. These are places where we would personally go or where we have already been. We created a special algorithm to score each location on popularity and the community vibe. Moreover, we offer an overview of the facilities, the internet speed, the type of accommodation and other important features.
We hope that nanuk will give you some inspiration and will make it easier for you to plan your next trip, either by yourself or with your team, whether it is on a beach in Mexico or skiing in Switzerland. And because we know that money saved on accommodation can be money spent on cool adventures, we also offer some nice discounts.
We would love to hear what you think about the website, if you like it and/or if you think we should make any improvements.
Please let us know if you know any co-living places which are not on the current list.
Thanks for hunting! @bentossell and I were just chatting about this topic the other day. Looks super useful 🌏 🛫
How did you find it adjusting from living together (pre-travelling) to the digital nomad lifestyle? @ana_maria_jijaescu
@abadesi Thank you for checking out nanuk.
One of the nice thing about co-living is that if one of us is busy with work and the other one wants to go explore, it's easy to find someone else in the community to join for a day trip or a short visit somewhere. In general, we try to keep a balance between traveling and working by having a well organized schedule. It's also easier if you're staying in one place for more than 3-4 weeks because then you feel like you have enough time to explore later if you have a few busy days at work. Hope this answers your question :)

@ana_maria_jijaescu This is so awesome! Congrats girl, wish you all the success in the world 💪
Very cool website! I love how you include the info about the wifi
Couple of suggestions:
- I'm still confused on how you book a room. Is it the "get discount" button? If so, I think it makes more sense to allow visitors to "book room" and then offer a "get discount" button when they're finalizing their reservation
- The buttons to the left of the "get discount" button are a bit confusing. I thought the comment button was a way to contact the place.
- I was a bit confused on what the hexagon score represented at first
@thomasharrison4 Hi Thomas, thanks for the interest and the valuable feedback
- indeed, it is the discount button. for now we do not have a partnership with every single venue, so this way it is easier for us to track interest for each venue, and get in touch with the few with whom still need to establish a partnership
- yes, that is a common point - I totally see it now, and we will adapt that
- I will try to add a short disclaimer for all the "score" values
again, thanks a lot for the feedback{s} :)

It will be my first comment on ProductHunt and the first comment will be... AMAZING WEB DESIGN (please tell me how you built it... front and back-end :D Which technologies did you use, and what kind of libraries did you use if you used any? :) )
Keep up the good work :)

@ana_maria_jijaescu Nice - looking forward to seeing more places on the site! One thing though: Mexico is in north America not South America!
@thealexfreeman Hi Alex, yes - I told Ana the same, she still needs to optimise that. I am sure she already has it on her list

I love this idea. It's great for people who likes to work remotely (:
I did find some issues with the site, however. When I first searched for a place. It only showed 10 places on the map, so I thought there were only 10 places on the database. This made me abandon the site.
But after realizing that, the site is amazing! Just discovered Sende, and it's now definitely on my list of experiences I want to try out!
