Our week-long retreat in Goa embraced the art of contentment and living at a slower pace, just like the locals do. We divided our time between the serene South Goa and the lively North, blending the best of both worlds. Staying in a beautifully restored Portuguese mansion, we began our days with movement therapy on the beach, awakening our bodies and minds to the rhythm of the waves.

From baking breads and pretzels in a charming German bakery to learning the secrets of slow cooking, we immersed ourselves in the simple joys of Goan life. Yin yoga sessions helped us master the art of rest, while a color theory workshop took us through Goa’s vibrant streets, uncovering its colorful culture. We even learned the craft of cocktail making and visited India’s first alcohol museum to dive deeper into the region’s spirit of merriment.

While mornings were spent reconnecting with nature, our nights were alive with the energy of Goa’s clubs, cafes, and parties. We lived, laughed, and fully embraced the relaxed and joyful spirit of the Sussegad life.
