018 - Pontus & Ulrika Lindblom: Buying Property in a Free City, Flag Theory & Travel

<p>This is Episode 18 of the Free Cities Podcast, and it is also the penultimate show from the series of conversations I had in Prague. I am in Warsaw for the next seven days, recording interviews that you will be listening to over the next two months on the Free Cities Podcast. I can report that I am only three episodes in, and I have to say that my mind has been blown already on two different occasions, so I am really looking forward to sharing these conversations with you over the coming weeks.</p> <p>Today on the show, I am talking with a Swedish couple by the name of Pontus and Ulrika Lindblom. Pontus and Ulrika are a family with a fascinating story…a journey around the world searching for liberty that has led them to the point of purchasing a property in Próspera on the island of Roatán in Honduras. I won't give too much away here, but needless to say, they have an exceptionally 21st-century story that revolves around, amongst other things, digital nomadism, flag theory, and Bitcoin.</p> <p>If living in a Free City project is something you've thought about yourself, then today's guests should be able to offer you a wealth of first-hand experiences of the trials and tribulations faced by a freedom-loving family looking for the best way to navigate the idiosyncrasies of the times we are living in.</p> <p>It was great to speak with them both. I very much appreciate people who are actually 'walking the walk' in this world. I sincerely hope they can offer some of you the inspiration to get out there and create the change you want to see in the world.</p> <p>Enjoy the conversation.</p> <p>AI Generated Summary:</p> <p>00:30 - Introduction by Timothy Allen</p> <p>03:04 - How did you end up in Prague?</p> <p>10:48 - Homeschooling is illegal in Sweden.</p> <p>18:31 - Prague’s experience of lockdowns.</p> <p>25:11 - The Pirate Party in Sweden.</p> <p>33:15 - The decentralisation of the family.</p> <p>37:21 - Finding a community to grow up in.</p> <p>43:43 - Prague's Liberty in Our Lifetime conference.</p> <p>49:39 - Buying an apartment in Próspera with bitcoin.</p> <p>55:29 - How much do apartments in Próspera cost?</p> <p>1:00:21 - How to make a living as a digital nomad.</p> <p>1:04:03 - The ideal situation for the family.</p> <p>1:10:02 - What are the advantages of having residency?</p> <p>1:14:20 - Why did you decide to go to El Salvador?</p> <p>1:21:41 - Democracy in the future.</p> <p>1:26:41 - How to prepare for the future.</p> <p>1:34:09 - How did your neighbours in Prague react to the lockdowns?</p> <p>1:41:52 - Advice for people who want to live a nomadic lifestyle</p> <p>LINKS:</p> <p>Liberty In Our Lifetime 2023: <a href="https://libertyinourlifetime.org/">⁠https://libertyinourlifetime.org/⁠</a></p> <p>TWITTER:</p> <p>Pontus Lindblom: ⁠<a href="https://twitter.com/ponli137">https://twitter.com/ponli137</a></p> <p>Timothy Allen: <a href="https://twitter.com/MrTimothyAllen">⁠https://twitter.com/MrTimothyAllen⁠</a></p> <p>Próspera: <a href="https://twitter.com/Prosperahn">https://twitter.com/Prosperahn</a></p> <p>WEBSITES:</p> <p>Próspera: <a href="https://prospera.hn/">https://prospera.hn/</a></p> <p>Free Cities Foundation: <a href="https://free-cities.org/">⁠https://free-cities.org/</a></p>
