6 Coliving Spaces with an Art Focus for Artistic Nomads and Travelers

We believe that Art, Creativity and Colivings can save the world :)

Over the past few years, I've really gotten into the worlds of art and travel and transformed into a digital nomad fueled by a love for creativity, because creativity can be used not only for artists and craftsmen, but in any field you can think of.

While looking for like-minded folks, I realized there weren't many lively coliving spaces focusing on art and creativity.

That's why I decided to make a list of coliving sites where creative nomads can develop their talents and find like-minded people.

Coliving spots with a focus on art offer a special vibe for creative souls, digital nomads, and fellow travelers. It's a chance to live, work, and team up with others in a community that really fosters artistic passions.

Check out these six awesome coliving spaces tailor-made for creatives:
