Back to Basic - The Art of Enjoying What Is
A 5-day retreat exploring simplicity, presence, and the beauty of being with what is - in nature, away from the noise
Invitations to journey together. Language exchanges, creative gatherings, musical explorations, and literal journeys - spaces where we gather with intention, whether for a single afternoon or many days together.

Weekly gatherings to practice Dutch, stumble together, and discover what emerges when we embrace imperfection
Weekly gatherings for Hang drum and drum enthusiasts - creating rhythms, exploring sounds, and connecting through music in a judgment-free space
Seasonal gatherings for musicians and sound enthusiasts - exploring different instruments, styles, and ways of making music together
For Dutch hearts living in Romania - learning the language, understanding the culture, finding your place in a land that's becoming home.
Journeys are invitations, not programs. When something calls to you, you reach out. We talk about what you're seeking, what the gathering might hold. If it resonates, we arrange a meeting - whether it's a weekly language practice, a weekend of music making, or several days of deep retreat.
Different journeys find their own rhythm. Some happen weekly, some monthly, some just once. Language exchanges might be ongoing conversations. Creative gatherings might be seasonal explorations. Literal journeys might span days or weeks. The container shapes itself to what we're exploring together.
Gatherings happen in the WebRTC studio or in person. The robot watches over us in maintenance mode when we're online. We connect peer-to-peer, face-to-face, in real-time. No recordings, no archives - just presence. For longer journeys, we might meet in places that serve the exploration.
Commitment is fluid. Come for a session, come for a season, come for as long as the journey serves you. There's no obligation beyond showing up when you say you will. Life changes, and journeys adapt.
"The path appears as you walk it. We walk together until we don't. Then new paths emerge."
If one of these journeys resonates, reach out. Tell me what draws you, what you're seeking, what you hope to discover. Or propose something entirely new - this space can hold many kinds of exploration.
