Harking back to an earlier time, the property has an exquisite rustic chapel, a large wood-burning oven and bicycles to explore the surrounding countryside.

Travel and Flights to Italy 

You will be responsible for booking your own travel and flights. 

Participants from the United States will need to fly on September 20th in order to get to Italy on September 21th for the start of the retreat. Florence Airport (FLR) is the closest to our villa (1 hour & 15 minutes) and we will arrange a group airport pick-up at 11am on September 21. Once you are confirmed in the workshop, we will discuss the airport transfer with you. This transfer is included in the retreat fee.

On September 28, the last day of the retreat, there will be two transfers back to Florence in the morning. We can arrange it for you and the price is $40 (not included in fee). Again, once you are confirmed, we will discuss options. If you wish to be taken to a local train station (closest is Poggibonsi), we can also help you arrange it.

Feel free to come to Italy a few days before or stay a few days after the retreat. It is a beautiful country and worth exploring. Last year, many women enjoyed a day or two in Florence before the retreat, which is a great way to see the city and get over jet-lag. In addition, Jayme is leading a retreat on the Amalfi Coast the week before from September 12-18th. If you’d like to join us on both, that would be great!
