In the evening we arrive at the medieval village of Alma Vii, right in the heart of Transylvania. Here, Mike and Marion, a young family of Germans, fell in love with one old Saxon house. Therefore, they have decided to invest most of their time, money, and love in transforming the property into a comfortable guesthouse. They run their small business with great passion, personally looking after their guests.

For the following 4 days, you will meet some amazing young people, with a lot of experience and passion for what they do. Like Mike and Marion, most of them gave their noisy life in the big cities for the beauty and tranquility of Transylvania.

Anca - (200h Registered Hatha Yoga Teacher, 60h Ayurveda Yoga Teacher) -  started her journey in yoga philosophy driven by the emotion of compassion, after a long time in which her attention was directed outwards only. Yoga helped her to realize that it is essential to return to herself, to her heart. Moreover, she discovered that she is good enough with her qualities and flaws, and how to treat herself with compassion every day, in all of her thoughts, actions, and feelings.

She will be your Yoga teacher, every morning, but she will also host some very interesting workshops, such as Intuitive Drawing, Energetic Dance, Breathing, and Meditation.

Stelian - (passionate about cooking, nutrition & Ayurveda) - loves gastronomy and slow food. A couple of years ago, he started looking into the healthy food area. In his searches, he learned about Ayurveda, thousands of years old consecrated science. This supported him in overcoming some imbalances, with the help of nutrition, purification practices, and herbal-based treatments.

Besides cooking us some delicious vegetarian meals, based on local ingredients, he will conduct a special Ayurveda Workshop. Thereby he will share with us important information on how can we get to know better our body and soul, and how to balance ourselves with the help of aliments and condiments.

Ioana - certified local guide - born in Bucharest, in love with Transylvania, moved here in 2020, and never left. She is passionate about local history and Saxon heritage.
