NixOS Ocean Sprint 2023

📍 Location

The sprint will take place outside under pavilion tents (for sunshine protection) in a villa with a pool.

Withing a 5 minute walk you can reach:

one of the best beaches in Lanzarote, where you can swim, jog, snorkel, SUP, surf and windsurf,
a local supermarket that is open every day from 8AM to 10PM,
a pharmacy and a bakery,
5km long beachside promenade with free outside gyms,
a steakhouse, a burger joint and an authentic Spanish tapas tavern,
an assortment of other various cafes, pubs and bars, restaurants, etc.

Once you are approved participant for the sprint, we'll get everyone to a shared communication room to help organize accomodation.

Note that the accomodation is not covered by the sprint budget.

If you are planning to come with your family and/or stay longer, Nejc Zupan has written a remote worker's guide to Lanzarote.

See Accomodations for a list of suggestions.

We'll organize catering (breakfast and lunch) during the sprint, which is paid by the sponsors.

There are a ton of options for dinners in nearby restaurants.

Closed.

To be determined once registration closes based on attendees interest.

It's also possible to fly to other island airports and then take a short flight. Fuertaventura is closest being 30min away with a ferry.

From the Lanzarote airport you can take a taxi to the venue, they have a flat rate and it should be around 20-25 EUR.

Renting a car is usually quite cheap, around 100-150 eur for the week.

See Activities for the full list.

We're looking for sponsors to cover expenses such as venue, catering, T-shirt printing and some of the activities.

Please help us make this a productive event by chipping in, so we can focus on coding instead of grocery shopping and cooking.

Our target budget is 15000 EUR. Reach out to [email protected].
