I’m Ari, a Brazilian with a background in Interior Design. At a pivotal moment in my life, I decided to step away from everything familiar. I embraced the unknown, setting off on a solo journey through Europe, seeking not just adventure, but deeper connections and self-discovery. It was a transformative experience that opened my eyes to a life beyond conventional boundaries, rooted in personal growth and new perspectives.

Over time, my path evolved, leading me to discover new passions and deepen my understanding of what truly matters. I had always dreamed of participating in retreats, but organizing them was a dream I had never considered until Manu shared her idea with me. It was a vision that far surpassed anything I could have imagined. It quickly became clear that there was no other option but to bring this dream to life together. And so, we created a space where people can reconnect with themselves, develop, and grow through movement, art, and nature.

Today, I continue to be inspired by the journeys of those who seek transformation. Alongside organizing retreats, I also work as an international recruiter, connecting Latin American talent to global opportunities. Each part of my story has been a stepping stone to living a life full of possibility, where creativity and connection know no limits.
