My remote office for the weekend: a Jeep, a laptop, and a mountain view

I built an outdoor workspace in my Jeep Renegade and tested it in the mountains of Brazil.

I’ve worked remotely for years, but most of the time my office looks the same: the same desk, the same chair, the same room.

Recently, I wanted to experiment with something different.

My wife, our little Shih Tzu Cookie 🐶, and I spent a few days in Gonçalves, a small mountain town in Brazil. Instead of completely disconnecting from work, I brought a simple mobile setup and created an outdoor workspace beside the Jeep.

The setup was intentionally simple:

• Laptop
• Portable power solution
• Outdoor table
• Comfortable chair
• Nature as the background

I worked for a few hours surrounded by trees, fresh air, and complete silence.

The biggest surprise wasn’t productivity. It was how much the environment changed my mindset.

Remote work is often discussed as “working from home”, but one of the things I enjoy most is the freedom to occasionally change where work happens.

This wasn’t a permanent van life setup or a full mobile office build. It was just a simple experiment: can a normal remote worker create a comfortable workspace anywhere for a day?

The answer was yes.

I filmed the entire experience because I wanted to capture both the workspace and the lifestyle around it.

Would love to hear from people here:
Have you ever taken your workspace somewhere unusual?
What is the most interesting place you’ve worked from?
