Just finished my retreat to Japan, and I already miss all the travelers so much 😭

If you missed coming on this retreat, come to Korea with me in MAY! You’ll get to meet some of the travelers who came to Japan, make so much art, eat tons of food, shop, and be inspired by Seoul and Jeju Island during cherry blossom season!

Bookings open on December 30th, so sign up for preregistrations to be the first in line when bookings go live! These retreats are absolutely magical, and I have made lifelong friends through these experiences. If you love art, travel, or just have the same nerdy interests that I do, you’re going to have a BLAST on this retreat!

Guests are welcome to attend solo or with a friend or partner. It’s a friendly, inclusive group and always the best time 🥹
