My Own Dolce Vita
A retreat for gay men in Tuscany June 1-8, 2013
A different way of experiencing Italy: slowing down, enjoying life and exploring with a group of like-minded gay men. The pace is designed to help men recharge their batteries – but just as important, to inspire them to bring the good life home with them after their time away.
Produced in cooperation with Il Chiostro (www.ilchiostro.com), this week will balance seeing Tuscany, light self-exploration and time to relax around the 18th century villa’s pool overlooking a picturesque valley. We’ll have a private chef; sharing an evening of good food, good wine and good conversation is a key part of our time together.
During part of the day we will take time for some light meditation, getting to know one another and sharing what makes for a great life. We’ll visit Montalcino, Assisi and other beautiful places, returning home for a glass of wine overlooking the valley and sharing dinner together.
Men who have traveled to Italy before will find this an opportunity to see a side of Italy most tourists rush right past. Those who haven’t traveled abroad before will find that the format provides plenty of support to make Italy comfortable – and to make friends along the way.
