our love for corsica knows no bounds

we want to share it with you!

We're intimately familiar with Corsica from travelling throughout the island on multiple occasions – especially in the region where we're setting up camp (more like taking residency in a secluded house): close to L'Île-Rousse. Tim's childhood was filled with Corsican adventures, thanks to his parents' holiday home there. He practically grew up exploring the island.

Back when we first crossed paths, we loaded our car with camping gear and embarked on a two-week roadtrip. Since then, we've revisited countless times, even hosting our inaugural workshop on this very island in 2018.

After extending our family with a second child in 2019, and now that the pandemic is behind us, we're thrilled to resume hosting retreats and workshops on our cherished island. Corsica's serenity and tranquility make it an ideal retreat location. The options for photoshoots are endless – from beaches to mountains, forests to historic villages, and even hikes up to the lighthouse. You get the picture, right?!
