Hi (R) emotes,

☕️ (R) emote Expresso is a short creator insights over the remote collaboration to start your day with - Once a week in your inbox 💌

This week, I want to share a reminiscence of a summer tale until we’re sliding to the autumn season 🍁

Let me share the fairytale of the Mountain Villages Cowork 🧚

WAS IT A KIND OF DREAM ✨

Last month, Véronique Canas Da Silva, my life partner, and I arrived at one of Portugal’s most beautiful yet remote villages 🇵🇹. Piódão, a stunning schist mountain village, far from the noise of civilization... and a decent WiFi/5G signal 😱

At this particular time of my story, everything seems set for an online training session tragedy... But I trusted a solution would emerge from our slow-paced lifestyle, so read more to see how magic can happen ✨

💩 WHEN IT STARTS TO SMELL SCHIST

The day before, with no plan and using a grocery store’s WiFi, I discovered that Miro silently upgraded my Miro Assist component to Miro AI 😱 + 🥳

No time to reschedule or prepare, this Miro Assist dedicated course with 16 paid participants would now be a very live experiment 🔥

Feel the thrill with me ? 😱😱😱

✨ TRUSTING IN YOUR DESTINY

On the day of the remote training, we drove an hour to Seia, a medieval village, finding 2 bars of 5G—barely 20 Mbps for remote survival under a scorching 38°C sun ☀️

A sudden intuition led me to search for "coworking" on Google Maps. A few phone calls later, we were 15 minutes away from an incredible find: the cooperative Cowork from Aldeias de Montanha in Lapa dos Dinheiros 🤩

A fully renovated village school, transformed into a world-class coworking space with 100 Mbps connection, handcrafted furniture, and full equipment!

When Andreia Silva welcomed us and presented the free Mountain Village cowork project, it felt like a dream ✨

Two hours to set up my remote office and adapt the training to Miro AI, I felt the universe was supporting me in launching this early-stage remote classroom on Miro AI 🙌

🏖️ MAGIC MADE IN PORTUGAL

So, Digital nomad tales can be right across the corner, and you don’t have necessarily to cross the globe : you haven’t felt true magic until you’ve worked from a schist village in Portugal ✨
