A founding residency
IRL Portugal
A 4-week residency for entrepreneurs, creators, artists, and builders seeking community, focus, and adventure.
August 13 — September 10, 2026Algarve, Portugal
Live alongside a small group of ambitious men in a distraction-free environment designed for deep work, health, meaningful friendships, and shared experiences.
01 — The premise
Modern life wasn't designed for community.
Most people live alone, work alone, eat alone, and spend more time interacting with screens than other human beings.
Yet some of our most meaningful memories come from places like camp, college, road trips, hostels, sports teams, and shared living environments. Places where life is experienced together.
I'm building these IRL Residencies to recreate that feeling.
02 — The format
What is an IRL Residency?
An IRL Residency is a temporary community. For four weeks, a small group of men will live together in Portugal while focusing on what actually matters.
