My story
When the whole world suddenly shut down in 2020, I decided to search for positive lessons in this unexpected tragedy. As a travel addict, I was desperately trying to figure out one thing. How can I continue to travel?
While sorting my travel memories, photos and videos of 40+ countries visited, numerous questions started coming to mind. Which trips left the deepest impression on me? What kind of journeys will I still remember in 10 years' time, as if it were yesterday? From which travels did I come back feeling totally reborn? What experiences opened a new path in life for me? And the most important question - which ones could I repeat in the current situation?
I soon realized that of all the adventures of recent years, five particular trips were the most special ones: a personal development seminar in Sweden, art workshops in Holland, a fasting and silence therapy in Estonia, a yoga and meditation retreat in India, and a writing retreat in Italy. None of these trips was about a perfect beach chill-out, or visiting world-famous sights, or chasing glamor and luxury. These were, in a sense, inner journeys in search of personal transformation.
Thus, the Growthcation idea was born. Traveling can totally change your life. But it’s not about how far or for how long you go on a trip. The treasures you are looking for when you go on a journey are much closer than you think. With Growthcation, you can travel just a few kilometers away from home for a weekend and completely transform your life. Traditional vacation is often just a temporary escape from your everyday life. Growthcation (i.e., vacation in pursuit of personal growth) can become the starting point of your total life makeover.
I invite you to join us on the journey where dreams come true.
