This first collection uses credited reference photographs from Pexels. Community photographs will join it after review.

Their open travel book

Thailand is where they met. Portugal is becoming another place to call home. Open the pages and follow the places that shaped DigiTao.

Where it all began.01
A place in our storyThe beginning

Thailand.

The island where our paths crossed.

We met in a coworking space on Koh Tao in early 2026. Two separate journeys became a shared one. An island, a conversation, and the beginning of DigiTao.

Thailand is where our story together begins. We start with the place we know personally: Koh Tao, its everyday rhythms, and the questions that come with staying a little longer.

Digital + Tao. A name that carries a little of where we began.

Portugal.

Making room for another kind of home.

Linda is setting up life in Lisbon, with room in the year for the rest of the world. Portugal is becoming another anchor in a life that keeps moving.

A new base brings a different set of questions. Where to settle, how to build a routine, and what makes a place feel like yours. We're figuring out our version, starting in Lisbon.

A place to come back to. And plenty of reasons to keep exploring.

A new home base / City life / Everyday discoveries
