Lemons & Laughter | April 30 - May 5, 2025
Move to the rhythm of spring to reboot the body after winter.
Revitalize the senses with five days on a Greek Island.
Join us for a joyous, sun-kissed retreat exploring this gorgeous island. We’ll take you on beautiful hikes through lush valleys, with sea swims and cold plunges in waterfalls, strolls through villages, mystical monasteries and cultural mornings at the museums.
Meditation, Greek dancing, private dinners in typical Andriot homes will give you an intimate glimpse into island life. Our culinary focus promises a savory journey into local gastronomy with private chefs and outdoor cooking classes that will woo you with the Greek farm to table approach to nutrition. Foraging along ancient trails, followed by a natural dying workshop will deepen your connection to nature.
And then, of course, there are the lemons!
An intrinsic part of the island’s identity and wealth, the Andros lemons are famous for their aroma. A morning in the citrus grove picking this precious fruit is another highlight of the experience. We’ll learn how to make traditional lemon spoon sweets, lemon syrup concentrate as well as delicious, Greek specialties.
This six day and five night adventure getting to know the island, seeing, tasting, being, moving, connecting and awakening, while staying in impeccable homes will remain with you long after your departure.
