With a background in wine and natural viticulture, she brings a unique sensitivity to the seasons, the senses, and the quiet intelligence of the body.

Her retreats are designed as sensory journeys - immersive, poetic and deeply transformative - inviting each guest to reconnect with herself in an elegant, nurturing setting
