A transformative experience
We caught up with Jaz, our Community Manager at Greek Escape in January-February 2022. She is now back in Barcelona, her "home base" and reflects on her experience. As 2022 started she knew she wanted a change of scenery and that Greece would be her next destination.

We were looking

The reality was just as romantic as I imagined
We caught up with former resident Megan, originally from the pacific northwest in the US, currently living the remote lifestyle to the fullest. Megan stayed with us at Swiss Escape in November-December 2021. It was not such a scary jump to book her stay at Swiss Escape as Megan always had roommates and had even experienced coliving coworking for 4 months already in Washington.

We don't just cowork, we colive!

At Greek Escape we try to always organize at least 2 events a week. One is more business oriented while the other one focuses on getting together and connecting around an activity. We have our own suggestions of cou

How to make the best out of your Coliving experience
The term Coliving has been buzzing around for a while now. And you will probably get as many definitions as there are types of coliving: the big operators, the long stay, the boutique and the rural spaces, the ones that cater to digital nomads and everything else in between. We have started our own spaces and lived in several ones so we like to think we have a pretty good understanding of what works and what doesn't, what matters and what is just for show.

The perfect combination!
Last week we zoomed in with Jessica who stayed at Greek Escape for a week on our opening month. Jessica has lived with other people before in a more classical "shared flat" setting but the experience was quite challenging as she was working from home and not really feeling it was the perfect set up for best productivity and wellbeing living with people with completely different lifestyles. As she now lives alone, she does recognise that she misses the social interactions. Sh

Serendipity encounter on a plane to Italy!
A few weeks ago, a couple who was supposed to stay with us was unfortunately unable to make it. They told us they had a friend who could take over their room and so Eric joined our community. Here is his story: Tell us a bit about yourself? Who are you, where are you from/based, what do you do? My name is Eric Nguyen from California and I am on the greatest adventure of my life right now. I got a new job in May working in Sales and I couldn’t be happier because of the people
