What do you get when you assemble a group of blockchain enthusiasts in a remote Balinese villa for ten days? Great conversations, immersive adventures, and deep connections!

In late February 2019, Peepeth hosted a 10-day blockchain-themed working retreat in the Balinese countryside. This is what we did.

Our group. A few of us wanted to remain anonymous, hence the masks, which are coconut art we saw at a cafe.

We talked

Conversation flowed from the moment we met at the airport.

We talked about culture, books, and relationships. We debated politics, philosophy, and health. And of course, we exchanged ideas about crypto, social media, and Web 3.

Our conversations were only interrupted by the crashing waves of Balian beach as we swam, by torrential downpours that drowned out our voices, and by the sounds of the night forest. Plus a workout, nap, or private moment here and there.

The backdrop to many of our conversations at the villa.

We swam

We all went in. Our villa was close to Balian Beach and we frolicked in the waves most evenings. We surfed, boogie-boarded, and waded; a great pre-dinner ritual.
