I spent about 3 years full time on Airbnb, living in various places (Shanghai, Berlin, NYC, DC, SF, LA...). I wouldn&#x27;t call myself a &quot;digital nomad&quot;, but I think I&#x27;m familiar enough with this concept to formulate an opinion:<p>- Without a network of locations, what you have is effectively a boutique hotel (an expensive one at that).<p>- If you&#x27;re starting with Ubud at 1,600 USD&#x2F;month, how will you make the economics work once you open pricier locations (e.g. Miami).<p>- User experience is really bad. Even after getting some hints from the comments here, I struggled to sign up and still have absolutely 0 idea of what&#x27;s happening or what I should I do after I did.<p>- No info upfront is pretty shady. You&#x27;re literally expecting to sign people up with a logo and a blurry picture.<p>- No Instagram pictures? Why linking it then? Why linking to AngelList too? How&#x27;s that relevant to the average user?<p>- Who is the user here? People with very high disposable income who are into Capoeira and creating startups?<p>The list goes on.<p>Overall, I&#x27;m just confused. It looks like a boutique hotel for yoga&#x2F;health fanatics, at a high price and with little to no information to explain the value.<p>If you&#x27;re serious about it:<p>- Hire somebody to rethink your user experience,<p>- Rethink your pricing,<p>- Maybe wait until you have at least a second location before calling it a network.

$1600 for a month? In Indonesia? In that room? No wonder you decided to hide the price until someone actually wants to sign-up.<p>EDIT: Just took a quick look at Airbnb for Indonesian rentals. I found this: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.airbnb.com&#x2F;rooms&#x2F;5021049" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.airbnb.com&#x2F;rooms&#x2F;5021049</a> It&#x27;s cheaper than a room from Roam.

I know a few people who are (separately from one another) working on the same concept. Good luck. The idea is right, and there can be multiple winners in the space. Paying a monthly subscription to be able to &quot;live&quot; in a few major cities is inevitable. The world is getting smaller every day and this is very feasible now.

For $1600 a month I&#x27;d expect solo-living not co-living.

Co-Founder here, happy to answer any questions.<p>Some of you might know this from last year when we put the idea out there with a wonderfully unpronounceable name <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thecaravanserai.co" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thecaravanserai.co</a> ...

It should be cheaper, but more importantly, we&#x27;ve got to own a share.<p>It should [also] work like that: you deposit say $200k, you get live in any location described, later on you can sell your share at market price that factors in all the property Roam owns multiplied by your share.<p>It&#x27;s like instead of buying a home, you buy a slot in Roam.<p>Of course you can make shares tiered.

Very interesting concept.<p>I was surprised that most of the open jobs are not remote, I expected the company to be very open about this and possibly even promoting&#x2F;preferring this, sort of eating your own dog food.

Even if this is a global network, if this is your game it seems like just sticking around Central America and Southeast Asia and you can live at a fraction of the cost with plenty of amenities.

I&#x27;m sure you could put a nicer picture of the room.
