Wander Well
Meet our team
Two friends, a growing belief that a week of practice in a beautiful place can gently rearrange the way you move through your life, and a first retreat: 5–10 September 2027 in Ericeira, Portugal. More destinations to follow.
I first came to yoga 28 years ago as a way to manage anxiety after graduating university. Since then, my practice evolved to include meditation and breathwork, and it remains a source of inspiration and stability. As a teacher, my goal is to help you deepen your connection between mind and body through a breath-centered practice. My approach is not about striking an Instagram-worthy pose; it's about honoring our bodies and learning how to listen to the wisdom within.
Yoga and meditation retreats are part of my personal practice, and I am thrilled to share this opportunity with you. A retreat isn't about escaping problems, and it's not a cure-all. Instead, it is a sacred pause that allows us to step outside the roles and stories we inhabit, tap into our inner wisdom, and in doing so, discover (or rediscover) those truths we can bring back to our daily lives. It's an affirmation of possibility, and I hope you will join me on this shared journey in a truly magical location.
How WanderWell began
A friendship, a shared idea
The inspiration for WanderWell began when we were attending a yoga retreat together at beautiful Casa Paco d'Ilhas in Ericeira, Portugal. Of course, after a week of practice, sunshine, and healthy cuisine we felt incredible. What we did not anticipate was how much we gained from having the time and space to set down the various roles we occupy and reconnect with ourselves.
Beyond that, it created a space to deepen our friendship over morning cups of coffee, long walks, and evening pots of tea. As adults with lots of competing responsibilities it is increasingly rare to have unstructured downtime with our friends — to talk about nothing and everything; to share the dreams, hopes, and fears that don't have the space to arise when you see each other in two-hour chunks of time.
It was on one of those rambling strolls that we realized our shared passions for travel, yoga, and event planning could combine in a truly powerful way. Our purpose is to create the space for others to find a bit of the clarity, inspiration, and connection that we discovered on that first retreat. WanderWell is a place to explore possibilities, discover potential, and come home to yourself.
