What you'll walk away with

Come for a week. Leave with a new trajectory.

Nomad Basecamp is built around results you can feel during the week and long after you fly home.

Your tribe for life

Find the people who get you: founders, creators and free spirits from 25+ countries who become friends, collaborators and a support system long after the week ends.

Tools you can use on Monday

Laptop-open workshops on AI, growth and marketing. You build while you learn, so you fly home with working assets, not just notes.

Mentors who've done it

Eat, hike and mastermind with speakers who have built the businesses and lives you're working toward. They stay all week, so you can actually ask them.

A calmer, clearer mind

Start each day with Kirat yoga, breathwork and sound healing. Burnout loosens its grip when the Himalaya is the view from your desk.

A healthier relationship with money

Ken Honda, author of Happy Money, shows you how to make peace with money, so it flows with less fear and more gratitude.

The adventure of a lifetime

Temples, treks, festivals and sunsets, all planned for you. You just show up and say yes.

And it doesn't end in Nepal. Your pass includes a year of session replays, slides and recordings in the Member Vault, plus a one-year School of Growth Hacking membership.

2,175 m Nagarkot

A once-in-a-lifetime adventure in magical Nepal.

Most visitors only scratch the surface of Kathmandu. Our week is tailor-made so every participant experiences the very best of the city and the valley, with local hosts, trusted guides and the logistics handled for you. Seven UNESCO World Heritage sites in one valley, Himalayan sunrises on the horizon, and a culture where the guest is treated as a god. In March the rhododendron forests bloom red across the hills, and you'll be here for it.

Ken Honda returns to Nepal.

Japan's #1 bestselling author of Happy Money came to Nepal for the first time in September 2026. He turned his session into a free community night, worked one-on-one with people on stage to heal their money wounds, and raised funds for victims of the Rasuwa floods.

He asked to come back. In March 2027 he headlines Nomad Basecamp in Kathmandu.

“It has always been my dream to come to Nepal. I am so happy and grateful to finally be here, and to give back to the people of this beautiful country.”Ken Honda, Pokhara, September 2026

The 2026 expedition

September 1 to 7, 2026, through a historic monsoon. Over a hundred nomads, founders and remote professionals from 25+ countries. Thirty-plus speakers. Kirat yoga at dawn, keynotes by day, Ken Honda's free community night, and funds raised for the Prime Minister's Disaster Relief Fund to support victims of the Rasuwa floods.

When mountain rain forced a schedule change with 45 minutes' notice, Becky Evans walked into a packed room and led a breathwork session that became a highlight of the week. That's the room you'd be joining.

      Atithi Devo Bhava: the guest is God

      Nepal welcomes us. We give back.

      The presence of a global nomad community should leave real, lasting value in the places that host it. Here is what that looked like in 2026.

      Ken Honda welcomed with flowers on arrival in Nepal

      Rasuwa flood relief

      A portion of every ticket and food and beverage sale, plus all donations from Ken Honda's free community night, went to the Prime Minister's Disaster Relief Fund for families affected by the Rasuwa floods.

      NextGen Tech Scholars

      Our core values

      Why Nepal Nomads exists.

      Five values, one for each colour of the prayer flags that line every pass in the Himalaya.

      Global Community

      We bring together the best and brightest individuals from all over the globe. Founders. Creators. Nomads. Dreamers. People who want more than a destination: they want a tribe.

      Growth. Your Way.

      An empowering and safe space for growth, whether you're here for spiritual depth, personal breakthroughs or professional momentum. You'll find it here, surrounded by people who get it.

      The Real Nepal

      An unforgettable experience that shows you the best of Nepal. Not the tourist version. The one that changes you.

      Supporting Locals

      We support Nepali small businesses and entrepreneurs by bringing high-quality economic opportunities, resources and connections directly into the community.

      Positive Impact

      We aim to improve and benefit the local community through positive, proactive initiatives. Because a rising tide lifts all boats.

      Swipe to see what we stand for.

      “One week is simply not enough.”

      It's the line we hear most from summit guests. Our co-living in Pokhara turns the summit into a home base: a private room with en-suite bathroom, breakfast every morning, fast Wi-Fi, yoga, weekly masterminds, treks and a nomad family from around the world. 30-day stays from $699.

      Is this for you?

      Nomad Basecamp is for you if…

      Every year the room fills with people at very different stages, from first-time remote workers to founders running eight-figure companies. What they share is the decision to invest in themselves.

      It's probably not for you if you're looking for a quiet beach holiday or a traditional corporate conference.

      • You work online and want to grow without burning out
      • You are a founder, freelancer or creator ready for your next level
      • You're tired of networking events that go nowhere
      • You've always wanted to experience Nepal, just not as a tourist
      • You want your travel to give back to the places you visit
      • You're curious about remote work and want to learn from people living it

      Questions

      What exactly will I get out of it?

      Your tribe: founders and creators from 25+ countries. Fresh direction for your business or career, practical tools from laptop-open workshops on AI, growth and marketing, a calmer mind from daily wellness rituals. Your pass also includes a year of replays in the Member Vault and a one-year School of Growth Hacking membership, so the learning continues after you leave.

      Is it worth the investment?

      Compare a week of keynotes, workshops, masterminds, daily wellness and curated adventures with the cost of a single consulting retainer or a conference in Europe or the US. Nepal is also one of the most affordable places in the world to stay, so the whole trip often costs less than a few days at a typical summit elsewhere. And your waitlist pass is the lowest price of the year.

      Can I talk to someone before I decide?

      Yes. Message us on WhatsApp at +977 976-2622282 and a real person on the team will answer, or join the Nepal Nomads community to meet past attendees.

      What is Nomad Basecamp Nepal?

      An immersive week for digital nomads, remote workers and entrepreneurial adventurers in Pokhara: talks, interactive workshops, masterminds, cultural exploration and community-building, set against the Himalayas.

      When and where is the next event?

      Early March 2027 in Kathmandu, with Ken Honda returning. The week brings together five programs: the Nomad Summit, a music festival, a wellness program, Nepal Tech Startup Day and an adventure expedition. Exact dates and venues go to the waitlist first. The annual summit returns to Pokhara in September 2027.

      Who should attend?

      Digital nomads, remote workers, founders, creators and anyone curious about location-independent life. Whether you're a seasoned traveller or exploring remote work for the first time, you'll fit in.

      What's included in a pass?

      All expert talks, interactive sessions, workshops and evening social events. You also get the Member Vault in the Nomad Basecamp app, with slides, replays and recordings of past speakers' sessions, and a one-year School of Growth Hacking membership. Meals, accommodation, transport and some premium activities aren't included.

      How many people attend?

      Over 100 people from 25+ countries joined in 2026. We keep the room intimate so you actually get to know people.

      Are there discounts?

      Yes. Waitlist members get first access to the lowest pass price. In 2026, super early-bird passes started at $199.

      How do I get to Kathmandu?

      Tribhuvan International Airport (KTM) is Nepal's main international airport, with direct flights from major cities across Asia, Europe and the Middle East. From there it's a short taxi or rideshare into the city. Our flights and visa guide has the details.

      How can I sponsor or speak?

      Read our sponsorship deck, fill in the partner form, or message us on WhatsApp at +977 976-2622282.

      Plan your trip

      You made it to the top.

      You just scrolled from Kathmandu to the top of Everest. In March you only need to make it to Kathmandu, where Ken Honda, the speakers and the tribe gather for five programs in one week.
