Summerhouse

What it's about

Inspiring one another, growing together, and supporting each other to reach new heights. Built on connection, coworking, and adventure, summerhouse is where entrepreneurs, creatives, and changemakers share experiences, improve skills, and push boundaries. From surf sessions and skateboarding to meditating and diving, every day is designed to create moments to remember. Are you ready to join the journey?

Hey guys!

I´m so hyped for the summerhouse and getting to know y’all!
I love traveling and organizing creative projects, so I’m super happy to be on board! 🏄‍♀️

I´m interested in so many things, so I’m always looking forward to learn from others and hearing other peoples stories. 🫂
Besides that I love doing yoga and any other sports but also cozy activities like reading and cooking. And of course going on spontaneous adventures- like this one!

Hopefully see you soon! 🤘🏼
