MEET ZOF RETREATS

Our creative retreats are NOT just for creatives, but for people like you. Yes, you the one who works in IT, Finance & Banking, Audit, Business Management, Accounting, etc. Seriously, it's time to explore a world of possibilities outside your daily job.

Creative retreats are the perfect getaway to channel your energies into inspiration in times when our life is full of physical and psychological restrictions. We all end up a little creatively blocked from time to time whether it’s with a hobby or a full-time career. Spending some time away in a supportive community can be just the ticket to unlocking endless imagination.

Retreats are a great opportunity to relax and ease your mind. Let's be honest, we're in love with our careers but taking some time away from the daily pressures of meeting client needs and running our business never feels right. Overworking and burnout are real issues that we need to address. It's your turn to prioritize yourself and celebrate life like you mean it.

BE A PART OF A CREATIVE COMMUNITY

Retreats are a great way of networking and connecting with like-minded people (and perhaps we need that now more than ever). Our creative retreats are truly unique because of the possibility to make lifelong friendships built on the same values and interests.

DISCONNECT TO RECONNECT

Time out allows for breathing space, creative exploration, daydreaming, experimentation, and the opportunity to tune into and listen to yourself away from the noise of everyday life.

We are Cristina Ciobanu and Luciana Baicea. Cristina is a dancer since 2017 & one of the first people who started building the SWING community in Bucharest. It is already known that dancing and music have multiple benefits for our mental & physical health. The goal of this workshop is to provide a new perspective on self-expression and self- discovery through the art of dancing. The workshop is structured: 90 min of focus on movement and 30 min allocated for discussion, debriefing, and questions. Can't wait to see you on the dance floor

Liana Popa is an Art History graduate, a copywriter who is extremely happy to work at her own agency, a content creator for others' or her own platforms. She loves nature, dogs, minimalism, museums, coffee with a drop of milk, and Sundays spent on Mondays.

Since 11 years ago, when she started writing at avetisiperoz.ro, she has been arranging her discoveries as flat lay style compositions. Later on, she named them #AranjateDeLiana. It's her way to talk about what she loves.

During the workshop, we will make a flat lay together - Liana wants to make us stop a little from the daily rush, and look around, in order to really see the things we look at. "Let us see with our eyes, hands, nose, ears, mind and heart."

Expand your creativity and go on to create lovely designs of your own.

I’m IOANA and I Eat to connect. I believe that we can connect better to ourselves and to the ones around us when food is on the table.
Take your time to pause, to see every detail of a raspberry, every angle of an almond and then experience the magic of really seeing the people in front of you – their beautiful eyes, their smile, their soul. Let’s explore together a world of senses and flavours and let's connect better to life.
