TOSCA EDITION with SEAN TUCKER
29 June - 6 July 2024
We have partnered up with Sean Tucker and we host this edition of our retreats at the 800 years old villa situated in a picturesque landscape of uniquely wild beauty. House and nature melt into an aesthetic unit radiating the typical flair of Tuscany.
The historic estate lies nested amidst vineyards and is surrounded by olive groves and idyllic hills.
We were lucky enough to discover this hidden gem in Tuscan forest where you can relax for a week, meet some fellow journeying creatives and spend some time refilling your creative tank.

RETREAT highlights
Nurture Your Creativity,
Nourish Your Body
Our retreats are a unique opportunity for you to disconnect and return to yourself. Everything will be taken care for you, down to every single wholesome meal prepared specially for our group by our retreat chefs.
There will be a plethora of activities to get involved with. A few highlights would be:
Workshops and sessions - more details to follow
Daily morning yoga practice with journalling and time to reflect
Excursions to beautiful local Tuscan town(s), including opportunities for a street photography workshop
Optional morning runs through the stunning countryside, HIIT guided condition training outdoors and in the gym, and hiking through the surrounding hills and forests.
Organic, locally grown food with options for omnivores, vegetarians and vegans. All meals included and prepared by a local chef
Documentary screenings on photography, food and local culture
Swimming pool next to a lavender field and plenty of sun to bathe in and work on the tan
Open plan spaces and cosy outdoor nooks to spend time reading, relaxing, or making new connections
On site gyms
Massages and therapies
Wine tasting options
Or none of these things. Everything on our programmes is 100% optional. If you want to just take the time to reboot, catch up on reading, engaging in conversation or taking long walks on your own, the time should be used as you choose, because we believe that you need to listen to that inner voice telling you how to retreat.

the mountain air the sunset light
birds flying home together
in this there is a truth
to know but not to say.”

We have a few new destinations in the pipeline. Watch this space.
Kiron
Just like famous heroes in ancient Greece used to retreat to the mountains to learn and train with the centaurs, we discovered a special place in Crete sea to escape any traffic, tourist crowds and enjoy the same sea and air like Achilles.
ALBA
A paradise in Mallorca’s mountains but close to the sea.
