Adult travel and co-living community
A community/brand around multi-week travel and co-living experiences for adults, often remote workers, monetizing through trip fees, community membership, and adjacent tools.
The idea, in plain language
An adult travel and co-living community runs multi-week trips for remote workers, monetizing through trip fees, community membership and adjacent tools. Dan Pierson went from $10k/week at 23 through a five-year entrepreneurial desert to a $60k-week services-before-product run, and now runs Unsettled. The episode also floats adjacent remote-work tools like Gather, Branch, Grain (Zoom transcription) and First Base (remote employee equipment).
Where the sources agree
- Communities for adult travelers and remote workers can monetize through trip fees and membership.
- Services-before-product revenue (Dan Pierson's $60k week) is a real path while the community takes shape.
- Adjacent remote-work tooling (virtual HQ, transcription, equipment) is where indie hackers see leverage.
