In this heartwarming and insightful episode of Colivers Club, host César Alberca sits down with Maria Hansen, a business English coach, digital nomad, and founder of Seeds of Gratitude. Maria opens up about her transformative journey through coliving spaces across South America and Europe—and how those experiences shaped her personal and professional growth.
Maria shares how she stumbled into coliving in Bogotá, how it evolved into a deep passion, and why her time at Anceu Coliving in Spain was life-changing—not just for her, but for the birth of her gratitude workshop and community. From safety and social connection as a solo female traveler, to navigating cultural dynamics and emotional authenticity, Maria brings a deeply reflective lens to what coliving really means.
You’ll hear her top three tips for first-time colivers, the power of setting intentions, and how building community is about balancing contribution with presence. Plus, she and César dive into topics like vulnerability, freelance life, the emotional signals of our bodies, and even their mutual love for bachata dancing 💃.
✨ Whether you’re a seasoned nomad or curious about joining a coliving community, this episode is full of practical wisdom and soulful reflections on creating a meaningful life through connection.
