Health & Adventure Retreats

My retreat programs are simple and authentic. They aim to bring you back to the roots, to kick-start your journey to a vibrant health, amazing-feeling physical activity and joy in who you are and what you do. Hidden in the quiet of the Swiss Mountains or the wild of the South-West Coast of Portugal, I combine the programs with vegan nutrition, adventurous surf and paddle board sessions, meditative walks and much more - depending on who is facilitating the specific retreat with me.
