This journey takes you from the vibrant capital of Bishkek into the remote highlands of central Kyrgyzstan.

I was a straight-A student — until I lost my dad and realized life’s too short not to live it fully. After school, I took a gap year to travel and ended up visiting over 15 countries while sharing my journey online.
I loved it so much, I found a way to turn it into a lifestyle — working with brands and creating travel content to inspire others to do the same.
This will be my second time in Sri Lanka, and I can honestly say it’s one of the most beautiful, underrated places I’ve been. I’m so excited to have you join me on this once-in-a-lifetime surf and adventure trip. Can’t wait to meet you all!
Got any questions about the retreat, we'd love to chat with you!
