THE FULL SEASON

Nomad Week is Just the Start

If you’re planning to arrive early, or stick around after the event, join our thriving nomad community in Cape Town for the full 2026 Season (January – Late-March).  A small community fee keeps the energy real — covering the tools and time to run it, and acting as your commitment to show up, stay engaged, and keep the vibe alive.  Free groups often fade. This one’s built to last.  If you’re looking for deeper connection and a community that’s truly present — come be part of it.

Andrae Smith

Hi, I’m Andrae – Founder of Work Wanderers and Nomad Week. I’m a proud South African entrepreneur and Cape Town local, passionate about building meaningful connections between nomads and the places they visit.

In 2018, I traded in my 9–5 for the freedom of digital nomad life, and over the past 7 years I’ve travelled to 45 countries, hosted 12+ nomad retreats around the world, and coached hundreds of aspiring nomads to launch their own businesses or go remote.

I’m beyond excited to team up with Matt to host the 2nd edition of Nomad Week in Cape Town – a week dedicated to community, connection, growth, learning, and making a positive local impact. I can’t wait to share my hometown with you, help you connect with the local community, and give back while experiencing everything Cape Town has to offer – which, trust me, is a lot!

Matt Gray

Hi, I’m Matt – Founder of Pangea, the leading app for digital nomads & frequent travelers to share their travel plans with friends!  I’ve been traveling for 14 years & have been lucky enough to live explore & work from more than 100 countries.  

I’m originally from New York, but Cape Town has quickly become my favorite city in the world, and is now where I spend most of my time when I’m not exploring new places. 

This will be my 4th season in Cape Town, and I’m thrilled to be co-hosting NomadWeek with Andrae!  We’re excited to make it the best year yet by bringing together this awesome community and I can’t wait to explore South Africa, along with some new countries like Leshoto, Eswatini, Mozambique & Malawi with all of you!

CAPE TOWN NOMAD SUSTAINABILITY GUIDE

Cape Town has officially been voted the #1 city in the world by Time Out for 2025 – and it’s easy to see why. With its breathtaking landscapes, rich culture, and vibrant community, it’s no surprise it’s also become a top destination for digital nomads.

But as one of the most visited and tourist-driven cities, Cape Town faces real challenges from over-tourism and environmental impact. That’s why we created the Nomad Sustainability Guide to Cape Town – a 31-page e-book packed with practical tips, mindful travel practices, and local insights to help you leave a lighter footprint.

Learn how to support local businesses, reduce waste, respect cultural heritage, and make a positive impact while enjoying everything this incredible city has to offer.
