Inspiration week in the Basque Country

After years in Spain’s sunny south, I felt:

I want to add more green to my life.

Because as lovely as the coastal climate is, I longed for something else.

• For mountains.
• For forests.
• For rain on your skin and mist in the morning.
• For nature that invites you to slow down and to move.
• The Basque Country offers all of that — and more.
• It’s rugged and pure, yet warm and surprisingly refined.
• The food is fantastic, the people are straightforward, and I can simply speak Spanish!

For Benny , this is home.

After years of global nature-conservation projects, he now lives and works here,
to live — and to share.

In a world full of noise, speed and expectations…
it’s sometimes necessary to pause. Not to escape,
but to reconnect with who you truly are.

This five-day experience is not a silent retreat, but a purposeful pause with direction.

💬 What is it?

A carefully curated program inviting you to move, slow down, reflect, and reconnect — with yourself, with others, and with nature.

You’ll be immersed in a world of:

• 🥾 hiking in the unspoiled nature of the Basque Country
• 🔥 conversations around the fire
• 🌿 local food & cooking together
• 🧭 moments of reflection
• 💬 workshops on resilience, vitality, leadership, and manifestation
• 💪 a physical self-defence workshop based on elite-sports principles

All at a relaxed pace, with space for your own needs.

No overcrowded schedule. No performance pressure.
Yes to direction, depth, and movement.

👥 Who is it for?

For anyone who wants to live and work consciously.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, leader, parent, or employee:

if you feel it’s time to reset your course — this experience is for you.

For people whose lives are going well,
yet feel there’s more possible.

For those whose daily life runs smoothly — at work, in the family, or in business —
but who know, deep down, that it’s time for depth, slowing down, or renewal.

Who set the bar high — but want to choose more consciously where and when

Who want to make space to feel what truly matters again

Who want to be inspired by nature, physical movement, and real stories

🧠 What makes this different?
