Hello, Bases & Flyers!
Password to access the online calendar: acro123
Exciting behind-the-scenes update, my friend, Rene, has been tirelessly putting in work helping improve the website and 3x’ing my workflow. Which means… the calendar is about to get way more up to date, in the most beautiful way this week.
Also, the nomads of Da Nang are starting to pack up and move on. Already starting to feel the sadness of leaving, but fun summer plans ahead.
This edition is the May retreats edition, plus everything coming up in the next couple of weeks.

🎉 BEYOND ACRO: Cultural Festivals You Can’t Miss in June
📍 Festa Junina | Brazil | June 24, 2026
A Brazilian festival celebrating rural life with folk dancing, bonfires, and traditional games inspired by European midsummer traditions. People dress in country-style outfits and eat foods made from corn while honoring saints like Saint John.
📍 Da Nang International Fireworks Festival | Da Nang, Vietnam | May 30 – July 11, 2026
An annual competition where international teams design choreographed fireworks shows set to music along the Han River. Each night represents a different theme, turning the city into a full-scale light and sound performance.
📍 Midsummer Festival | Sweden & Northern Europe | June 20, 2026
A solstice celebration marking the longest day of the year with rituals centered on nature, light, and seasonal renewal. The day revolves around traditional songs, seasonal food like herring and potatoes, and staying outside late under nearly endless daylight.
🧳 TRAVEL ESSENTIALS — What I Actually Use
I get asked a lot what I pack, book, and use on the road. Here’s the shortlist all tested over years going around the globe.
Booking.com – My default for hotels and guesthouses worldwide.
Agoda – Especially good for Asia deals.
Discovercars.com – Best rental car aggregator.
Skyscanner – Still the fastest way I find cheap multi-leg flights.
Travel Insurance via SafetyWing – Month-to-month coverage for when plans change last-minute.
✈️ Want help planning a bigger trip?
I also offer custom itinerary planning for people trying to stitch together their next travel adventure, and just want someone else to think through the logistics.
If you’re planning something epic (or slightly overwhelming), you can check that out below.
