Our Story
Making and maintaining meaningful connections can feel like a full-time job, and digital nomads already have jobs, if not companies of our own. Let alone the hours of our days spent on searching for flights and places to call home, if not also workable WiFi. But, as a team of digital nomads ourselves, we know that most places we’ve been have gone from good to great because of the company we keep. Meeting like-minded people has always enriched the nomadic existence. We crave connections with others on our wavelength, personally and professionally. The kinds of people who are taking calls straight out of the surf, answering emails between queuing the road trip playlist or scheduling stand-ups from basecamp. The kind of people who take work on the road because they can—and an insatiable thirst to see the world propels them onward. And, despite the fact that there are 35 million digital nomads and counting, that’s thus far felt like a far-from-feasible feat with traditional social app offerings. Enter: Punta. Punta is disrupting the meetup app world as we know it. It’s for anyone looking to make more friends for the journey—to cowork, explore or both. It’s also a one-stop shop for digital nomads to save them from all the heavy lifting. Because we don’t have time to hunt for cafes with outlets or search for the safest neighborhoods when we’re busy searching for hammerheads in the Galapagos or the snowcapped heights of the Himalayas. While working, of course. Punta was built by digital nomads, for digital nomads. Our team met gallivanting around the globe, and some of us even connected in coworking spaces in various corners of the world. Collectively, we’ve traversed over 100 countries and counting with over a decade of traveling, laptops in tote. Now, we wanted to create a meeting point for people like us—nomads who are already crossing our paths and sharing our interests.
