| A '''nomad base''' is a shared living space where all inhabitants can feel like hosts or in other words: 'at home'. It is a place where the inhabitants - how temporary they may stay - feel at home, do their 'thing' and can learn and share at the same time with the other people who live there. A shared culture of '''participation''' in common activities (household and events for example) as well as mutual care among inhabitants and visitors are highly necessary for these spaces to remain [[sustainable]].

| A nomad base can be a [[shared living]] space (like a house or a eco-village) rented, owned or [[squatted]] by one or more individuals who decide to share this space with [[nomads]]. It can also be a temporary space on a temporary location like some piece of land. Each location might have their own specific culture, aspiration, focus, terms of living, minimum or maximum length of stay, intentions, and so on.
