Journal Retreat
Siracusa, Sicilia IT
April 12-17 2026
This retreat is created to invite you to slow down, reflect, and (re)connect through the practice of journaling.
Writing becomes a way to honour inner landscapes, capture fleeting thoughts, and give space to creativity and clarity.
This five-day all-inclusive retreat
in Sicily offers a unique blend of journaling, creative mini workshops/activities, and two inspiring excursions. Throughout the experience, we will write, craft, and explore, weaving our adventures into DIY created journals that capture lasting memories.
At its heart is the joy of connecting with others who share a love for journals, creating a circle of trust, creativity, and shared inspiration.
During the retreat, I will also share my own journaling method, inspired by the wisdom of bees. Just as bees move between flowers and bring back pollen to weave into something golden, journaling becomes a practice of gathering impressions, insights, and emotions, transforming them into something meaningful on the page.
Held in beautiful surroundings that nurture calm and presence, the retreat is thoughtfully curated to engage both heart and mind, offering a sincere and memorable experience of reflection, connection, and renewal.
By the end of the retreat, you will have a handmade journal of your own, practical new writing and creative techniques, and a deeper connection with yourself and a community of fellow journal enthusiasts. — Alessandra
