A new way of living, learning, and connecting — seasonally, in nature and in community.
The world is changing fast. AI, automation, and the stress of modern life are pushing people toward something more grounded, healthy, and human.
More families, creators, remote workers, snowbirds, and purpose-driven individuals are looking for places where they can return seasonally, build friendships, learn together, and feel part of a real community.
Portal.Place Membership is your doorway into that new model of living.
As a member, you join the founding community shaping our first Smart Village in Interior BC — a nature-immersive, culture-forward prototype centered around wellness, creativity, shared rhythms, and meaningful community projects. Members receive priority access to immersions, programs, gatherings, and discounted stays, plus early invitations to future village locations.
This is not full-time housing — it’s a seasonal, community-driven lifestyle built for the post-AI world. A place where culture, nature, and creativity come together to form traditions that deepen each year.
If you want a healthier seasonal rhythm, an inspiring creative basecamp, a meaningful summer destination, or a community to return to — this membership is your invitation.
