## About

LikeBirds isn't your average desk rental — it's a freelancer-only coworking community housed in the historic Eskimofabriek, a converted industrial building on Ghent's Wiedauwkaai with soaring ceilings and natural light pouring through every corner. Self-employed status is required to join, which means the people around you are genuinely in the same boat: founders, creatives, and independent professionals who get it. The space is designed around how real work actually happens — a quiet, focused open floor, phone booths for calls, three hireable meeting rooms, and a social kitchen where "slow networking" lunches bring the community together without the awkward name-badge energy. There's a rooftop terrace with city views for when you need a breath of air, adjustable height desks, 24/7 access, and free parking right at the door. A regular calendar of workshops, trainings, and community events keeps things alive. Come try it all with a free day — workspace, welcome tour, and a community lunch included.

Yes — LikeBirds offers a free trial day that includes a welcome tour, a full day of focused work in the coworking space, and a community lunch with existing members. You can book your free day via the contact form or Calendly on the LikeBirds website.

### Is there parking at LikeBirds Ghent?

Free parking is available directly in front of the Eskimofabriek building on Wiedauwkaai — no parking app, no ticket machine. It's one of the most-cited practical perks by members.

### What kinds of events and community activities does LikeBirds organise?

LikeBirds runs a regular calendar of workshops, trainings, and community events, alongside curated 'slow networking' lunches designed to make connection feel easy rather than forced. The building's creative industrial setting in Ghent makes it a popular spot for external event hire too.
