Cabo Serai, Goa, India

A weekend of storytelling in nature through, film, photography and art

February 26th to March 1st 2026

A Weekend of Storytelling, Nature, and the Sea.

This 3-night retreat invites you into a quieter side of Goa, where forested cliffs meet the ocean, and nature speaks in subtle rhythms. Mornings begin with yoga and breath, followed by immersive sessions on storytelling, filmmaking, and conservation led by National Geographic Explorer Eshika Fyzee. You’ll walk coastal trails with a naturalist, paint at sunset with a nature artist, and create your own visual story from the wild.

 

There’s space to rest, to reflect, to connect, not just with others, but with the land and the creative voice within. Designed for those seeking inspiration, slowness, and meaning, this is a retreat into nature and narrative, where the sea becomes both setting and teacher

Testimonies not just of place, but of what moved within

"Hey love - i just wanted to genuinely thank you from the bottom of my heart for such an amazing trip to Kasar Devi. Coming back here really put into perspective even more how magical the trip was - at least for me. The energy was so powerful. Honestly words will never do justice for how I feel about everything and how much it meant to me and still means to me. I feel very fortunate and blessed and hope to go on more adventures with you "
