 Good timing! We just published our 3rd issue of New Worker Magazine with
 two articles on how people combine coworking and travel:

 - Trading places: Coworkers switch cities

 Rafa Moreno of Zona Coworking (about Betahaus Berlin swapping members with
 utopic_US in Madrid, and vice versa)
 - This is how coworkers travel http://newworker.co/mag/coworking-travel/

This is amazing.  I love the idea and Office Nomads would love to
participate.  This takes the beautiful cross-pollination that fuels the
Coworking Visa and kicks it up a notch or two.  When I get back from
spending the summer in San Francisco, I plan to keep a guest room in my
house in Seattle for visitors like this.

I won't be available for the conference call later this month but I'll keep
an eye on the project and reach out later in the year.  Nice work!

 We have actually established a nonprofit arm at CO+HOOTS in Phoenix and
 are looking to get donations of airfare and lodging to support coworking
 both nationally and internationally.  I am going to be starting a community
 of advisors from cities around the country interested in being part of our
 pilot program.  In order to receive the exchange trip, we are going to ask
 the coworkers who participate to also do a small pro bono project in their
 field for an organization of need in the local community where they visit.
  :D

 The local coworking spaces who participate would need to provide a desk
 for the visiting coworkers, safe lodging (via a local hotel) with access to
 public transportation and a host of people who are willing to show the
 person around the area on their visit.  There are still a lot of details to
 figure out, but we are going to be hosting a Google Hangout at the end of
 this month and I will post it here if any of you want to attend.

 We have established the nonprofit with the intent of it being a national
 program that ALL coworking spaces can benefit from for the coworking
 exchange program-- NOT just PHX and CO+HOOTS.

 If any of you are interested in being in the community of advisors, please
 let me know.

 GIVE 2 HOOTS WITH CO+HOOTS!

 Hi all,

 I'm starting an exchange program between coworkers and I would like to
 know your insights, ideas or suggestions.

 It's a network for coworkers who want to exchange their homes + coworking
 memberships, usually for short periods of time. So in other words a
 coworker would be living in another city and working in a different
 coworking space but without paying anything extra (no rent and no coworking
 fee since they're already paying at home).

 I think it would be enriching for both the person who travels to another
 city/country and your coworking community. I was wondering if you as
 coworking managers would aprove this kind of arrangement (someone else
 using a coworking membership).

 Thanks a lot for your feedback!

 Carlos

I love this!  Susan and I have talked about something very similar where we
invite people to come to Seattle to join the Office Nomads team for a week,
or a month to get hands on experience in an established community.  We've
been talking about it for a long time but haven't pinned down any details
as of yet.  What do people think about that idea?  I also love to travel so
give me an excuse and I'm there!

Thanks a lot for your feedback!

Actually we are a stablished home exchange community called happyhamlet.com.
We are still finishing the development in order to create a subgroup for
coworkers, you can take a peek here:
http://www.happyhamlet.com/hamlet/coworking

I would like to start a pilot with some coworking spaces, I already have a
few interested in Europe: the one I'm based in Barcelona and others in
Vienna and Berlin, but we need a few more to reach enough critical mass.
And everywhere, not only in Europe.

Please, if anyone is interested drop me a line.
