I invited 7 internet strangers to spend a month living and working in my childhood home in Bolivia.
It was never meant to be a โbusinessโ. Just a group of friends traveling the world together.
Itโs been 8 wild yearsโฆ
Since that first trip, weโve brought 2,500 nomads together in 80 cities to colive and cowork around the world, one month at a time.
Our work has sparked thousands of lifelong friendships, countless perspective-shifting conversations, hundreds of startup projects and career shifts, so many new romances, lots of weddings, a few babies, and an unimaginable amount of core memories.
What we do changes lives.
Not a little, but a lot and in every way you can think of.
If this excites you, keep reading to see if this might be the most perfect job ever created for you.
What is WiFi Tribe?
We believe that life wasnโt meant to be lived in just one place. That your best work can be done from anywhere. And, that everything is better when you have great people by your side.
We bring together great people from around the world to help them overcome the loneliness of solo travel, find true community wherever they go, and make their biggest travel dreams a reality, together.
We connect our members through:
40 coliving/coworking retreats in exciting destinations,
a Slack community where members share advice and support each other, and
an exclusive app that helps members meet in-person anywhere in the world, and plan their next big adventure together.
WiFi Tribe is THE vetted community for driven professionals and entrepreneurs who seek long-lasting travel connections.
YOUR Mission:
The Tribe needs a home. Well, not just one. We need many. And all around the world.
At WiFi Tribe, we think a lot about our homes. They need to be comfortable for remote work, in good condition and have all the required amenities. But most importantly, our homes need to bring the Tribe together.
We need homes that are good spaces for a community to form.
Your missionโshould you choose to accept itโis to find the Tribe a home wherever we plan to go. You will set up a global network of villas, houses, and apartments that keep the Tribe connected and productive. You'll ensure these homes reflect our attention to quality and care for community. Youโll be working closely with the founding team to achieve this vision.
You will be at the core of our global expansion strategies. Youโll source, negotiate, and manage property contracts and landlord relationships. The person weโre looking for will have excellent project management skills, experience negotiating complex deals in multiple languages, and will genuinely enjoy working in fast-paced teams.
Ideally, youโre located in the European/African time zone or be willing to work a schedule that overlaps with Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Heyโฆ we did say it was global, right?
We donโt just want you to join the team, we want you to become a member of our community and travel side-by-side with our legendary members. If youโll be finding the Tribeโs homes, well, you better start living in them and travel the world with us!

When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams.

Become a WiFi Tribe Chapter Host
WiFi Tribe is a global community of remote professionals from 62 nationalities. For the last 6 years, we have been traveling the world together with our members, living in a different city every month. On weekdays, we work remotely side-by-side, and on the weekends, we go on trips and adventures together.
Due to the COVID pandemic, the interest in what we do has exploded. We're now expanding our team and looking for talented and passionate community builders to take on the world with us as Chapter Hosts.
A WiFi Tribe Chapter Host is our version of a community leader. As a Host, you will be traveling the world with 20 other WiFi Tribe members and be in charge of the vibe (the culture) and group dynamics. This is a paid job and all travel costs are covered.ย At the end of the page you can apply to become a chapter host.
Why Does WiFi Tribe Exist?
We all need to feel that we belong somewhere. Humans evolved and survived as tribes and communities. But now, with billions of people living in mega cities and lonely one-person apartments, we're more disconnected than we ever were. We've traded comfort, success, and belongings for what really matters; human connection. Oh, and, where has our sense of adventure and discovery gone?!
You're reading this because you're a person who derives meaning and energy from being around other great people and bringing them together. You're a people person! You know this, because you've been told so often by others that you're just...ย naturally good with people. And, I'm going to bet that you love a good adventure.
Maybe, you're in a moment of transition in your life, where you're asking yourself:ย "What matters to me? What do I want more of in my life? What do I want my life to look like? And what do I need to change to get it there?"
At WiFi Tribe, we believe that a rich, fulfilling life boils down to three things:
a collection of shared experiences
deep, meaningful relationships, and
the sense of purpose we find when we are making a real difference in other people's lives.
What Does a Chapter Host Do?
Our Chapter Hosts are the most important members of our team. Everyone else on the team is here to supportย youย in making the magic happen! As a Host, your mission is to strengthen the culture and foster a tight-knit community. The result of that will be a mind-expanding experience that bonds people together for life.
Challenge accepted?
Ok, here's how it will happen... You'll be traveling the world with 20 other freelancers, entrepreneurs, and remote professionals, living and working together from a new city every month. Yes, you'll be responsible for the logistics of setting up a new destination,ย but that's the easy part... You'll find the ultimate match to your people skills and your natural leadership in the moments where you need to bring this group of 20 together and foster a real sense of community, wherever in the world we go.
As a Host, you are both the community architect and the community builder. You are a leader who empowers others to become active contributors and leaders too โ an engineer of human dynamics. Most importantly,ย you are a champion for the cultureย WiFi Tribe has carefully fostered over the last five years.
And when necessary, you step up to ensure that the experience is safe for everyone. You're the person in charge if anything needs to get resolved, and the on-the-ground liaison with the landlord/property owner. And don't worry, the rest of the WiFi Tribe team has got your back โ we're here to help you make the magic happen every step of the way!
How, Exactly, Will I Be Working?
Hosts usually run two or three Chapters in a row. They are then off for one or two months before hosting their next set of Chapters. Each Chapter is four or six weeks long, so a Host is typically running Chapters for two or three months at a time.
There is always a week in-between each Chapter. We call it the โgap weekโ. Hosts arrive at their destinations at the start of the gap week so that they have enough time to prepare for their next Chapter.
The Chapter Host role is a 12-month contract that is paid per completed Chapter. Whenever Hosts are not running a Chapter, there are no work-related expectations from our side. Therefore, we recommend applicants to have other part-time work alongside the Host role. Ideally, you would either already be working as a freelancer, have a part-time remote job, or be running your own company to have a stable income, especially during the months when youโre not running a Chapter.
When on-Chapter, you can expect a part-time commitment (about 20h per week, with most of those hours at the beginning of the Chapter and less at the end) and when off-Chapter, you wouldnโt have any WiFi Tribe-related work.
There may be an opportunity to take on additional projects within the WiFi Tribe company at a later time. This would depend on your skills, work experience, and interests in other areas of our company, as well as what kind of projects are available. Please do not rely on this, as we cannot guarantee that there will be sufficient projects to support your full-time income needs.
Am I the Right Person for this Role?
Our application process takes a lot of time and effort and we've had 200 applicants per available spot. So, out of respect to your time, we want to help you self-assess whether you are exactly the kind of person we're looking for:
You're a natural leader.ย Somehow people always gravitate around you and look to you for decisions.
You're confident.ย You're very comfortable being authentic self and your are stable within yourself.
You're brave.ย You don't shy away from doing the right thing, even when it's hard to do.
You're Reliable:ย People quickly trust you because you move through life with integrity.
You can 'feel' the room.ย You're aware of how everyone is feeling and you always make sure that everyone is involved and having a good time.
You're a people person.ย Your friends and colleagues always tell you that you're really good with people!
You're a community builder.ย You naturally bring groups of people together around events, experiences, shared interests or ideas. You build a community around you by empowering people to contribute.
In short, your superpowers are all about people and leadership.
If every single one of these felt like it was describingย who you are, we really hope you apply!
How Will I Grow Professionally?
Think of it as a practical, hands-on masters degree in community architecting, social dynamics engineering, and leadership... that you're getting paid for. We'll provide all the training for you to:
become skilled at navigating group dynamics
develop public speaking skills
sharpen your natural leadership skills
hone your organisational skills
hone your team/people management skills
become a skilled communicator
become skilled at managing uncertain or challenging situations
put your emotional intelligence to the test and make it your greatest asset going forward (in work and life)
Of course, it's on you to make the most of this opportunity, but just by being a leader within this community, you will be exposed to a constant stream of opportunities. You'll be surrounded by successful remote professionals, freelancers and entrepreneurs who will happily take the time to sit down with you and share their hard-earned wisdom and their unique perspectives. Take this chance to:
sharpen your business acumen
take a peek into any career you're curious about
find out more about an industry
build a personal network of friends all over the world, who all work remotely and happen to be experts in their fields
How Will I Grow as a Person?
Gain perspective as you meet new people and immerse yourself into the world's many cultures.
Escape the 9-to-5 cubicle and refocus on what truly matters: human connection, adventure, nature, self-discovery, growth, purpose, and just gratitude for life and all it has to offer.
Do work that matters. You WILL change people's lives (you'll be responsible for engagements, marriages, kids, best friends for life, a new-found feeling of belonging, self-discovery, big career changes, and a life filled with memories).
Become a better version of yourself. Let go of your ego and find yourself putting other people's needs first.
Challenge yourself to do something uncomfortable. This experience will shape you and prepare you for all sort of situations in life.
Learn any work or life skill from a fellow member of the community.
Learn from and grow with a great team that cares about you (as corny as it sounds, the team is family!)
"My growth and internal capacity as a human being has skyrocketed. I am surrounded everyday by people who are inspiring and passionate whilst retaining their humility. This community has shown me where I need to grow but also it has shown me the ways I already shine." -ย Amanda (Senior Chapter Host & Community Architect)
Is this a Typical Travel Job?
Yes and no. It's reallyย allย about community. But yes, as a Host, you will be traveling a lot and you'll be surrounded by people who are just as curious and excited about the world as you are. So, of course, this role is also about:
bringing more adventure into your life (escape the cubicle!)
experiencing more of those small moments that life is all about (the sunsets, cozy dinners, more time in nature, exploring the streets of an unknown place with a new-found friend...)
maybe learning a new language
being on a never-ending journey of growth with a bunch of curious, passionate and quietly successful humans by your side
maybe meeting a future business parter or the person who will open the door to your next big opportunity
making friends for life all around the world
filling your life with memories and experiences, instead of material things
and, of course, seeing the world while you're still young and full of energy!
Your Mission as a Host
Be an exemplary member of the community (live and breathe our values)
Protect and foster the culture (the vibe) of WiFi Tribe on each Chapter
Introduce new members to our culture to help them succeed
Be a leader that empowers others. Use your natural influence to achieve that people live by our values, to foster our intentional culture, and to lift people up so that other leaders naturally emerge from within the community
Encourage members to shape or co-create their own experience
Prepare the housing and internet set-up for the group to arrive
Collaborate with the landlord and sourcing team for any issues that need to be resolved (e.g. internet, housing quality, safety, etc.)
Make it feel safe and comfortable for members to arrive on your Chapter
Work with the Product team to improve the Chapter experience
Secondary Responsibilities
Be the on-the-ground eyes and ears for the rest of the team
Work with the marketing team to promote the location (create social media posts, record videos, etc.)
Work with Tribe Support to help onboard members to your Chapter
