Slow Experience Retreat in Crete — Villages, Nature & Presence
With Sotiris Zafeiris and Marieke Rodehors
Package Dates
This is a longer-stay experience in Crete for those who wish to step out of a fast-paced rhythm and spend time in a more grounded and natural environment.
Located in the Apokoronas area of Chania, the experience unfolds through simple, everyday moments rather than a fixed retreat structure.
Participants stay for 14 days, allowing enough time for the nervous system to settle and for a different quality of experience to emerge.
During the stay, there are opportunities for:
• village walks and local exploration
• time in nature and quiet surroundings
• simple shared moments and conversations
• optional participation in experiences such as treasure hunts or relational clarity sessions
There is no rigid schedule or intensive program.
The intention is to create a space where presence, rest, and awareness can develop naturally over time, without pressure or expectation.
This is suitable for individuals who feel the need to slow down, reconnect, and experience Crete beyond a typical visit.
You come here by public or your transport. In special case we can arrange a lift.
