Good people.
Strange experiments.
Unexpectedly tasty results.
Legend has it that somewhere between the Mediterranean and Mount Fuji, eight dachshunds opened a laboratory. They wanted to build a machine that would find everyone work they loved. They uploaded their CVs, poured in two kilos of coffee and pressed “start”.
The machine produced an unexpected result: a big table. Around it, agents, projects, dinners and new reasons to meet began to appear. The dachshunds called it a happy bug, put on their lab coats and kept experimenting.
This tale has a real beginning: a job-search chat, a home coworking space and a small community in Valencia. Six chapters in, the experiments have already taken us from Valencia to Barcelona.
And the sausages? That’s a long story. ↓
It started with a simple idea: help each other figure out AI agents and the job search. A living room, laptops, fruit and enough coffee to last a while. As it turned out, the conversation lasted longer.
Lab note No. 001: good company is already a working prototype.
Everyone has a recipe.
Everyone has a seat.

In our story, everyone has paws.
That has never stopped us
building things.
Sometimes the result is a working prototype.
Sometimes a fresh
look at an old problem.
Sometimes six kilos of mussels.

Explore Firewatch ↗6th out of 29 at Barcelona AI Hackathon. A little practice for life abroad, one courier conversation at a time.
Try Expatia World ↗Knowledge bases, automation, games and little tools. We try them on our own problems, share what works and figure out what broke.
Work alongside someone, ask for advice, take a coffee break. A living room, laptops and conversations that rarely end on schedule.
From coffee conversations to a prototype that helps make sense of a fire incident. Data, cameras, radio and human judgement.
New city. A courier on the phone. One minute to guide him home in Spanish. An AI-powered neighbourhood for practising everyday conversations.
Okroshka, mussels, attempts at a film club and trips to watch the stars. The human in the loop needs recharging too.
We don’t have a universal recipe.
But we have made a few
observations.
We are a small community of people who like making things together. Bring an idea. Bring a question. Or bring a little bread.
CURIOSITY WELCOME.
