Project Testimonials

How did I feel about the project before it started?

i was very optimistic as i had the idea for a while.

What was a challenge?

Transportation lacked air conditioning.

What was your favourite part of the project?

Everyone was just themselves .. Me too!! and everyone had a story. Plus the weekend was different from my usual weekend 😄 so thank you!

The retreat was a truly transformational experience. To be outside, connecting with nature and surrounded by like minded souls was a priceless experience. Marlon and the team curated the retreat beautifully, from yoga underneath the trees, to sound bathing, gorgeous accommodation and water fall hiking. We will definitely be attending the next one and have told all our friends! Amazing photos of the waterfalls ... Beautiful smiles ... So much laughter and love! Thank you to Marlon... And the team around him, for your support and amazing events ... I can't wait for the next trip🙏🙏🙏🙏
