Being Václavnomad

Japan

Nagasaki

Open in Google Maps

Japan's historic gateway to the world, and about a month of it in the autumn of 2025 as one of the people Digital Nomad Nagasaki selected. Coworking by day, a city where Japan first met the world by evening, and locals who want you to belong rather than visit. A steep street, a palm, the town below: that is the picture, and it is the feeling.

Where I plugged in here

Next place Prague

One of 23 chosen from 632 applications. Five intense weeks in southern Japan on a government-backed programme, exploring cities and rural villages and spending time with local communities. I ran leadership and personal-growth sessions for local students and business owners. An incredible opportunity that changed how I think about work, hospitality and time.
