a story of connection

trust the universe, that you will meet the right people at the right time! Also, trust in connection, it's so important to support each other, especially in the same "niche".

Back in January, when I was spending time alone on the island, Instagram brought Alena into my world. From the very beginning, I felt there was something we shared — a sense of similarity, a pull to get to know her better. At that moment she was traveling, so we had to wait until March to finally meet in person, but we stayed in touch until then.

Our very first meeting was at a Pilates class, followed by a spontaneous road trip through the Tramuntana mountains. I picked her up at home, Alena took me to her favorite places, we stopped for a picnic with the most breathtaking views over the open sea, shared self-made banana bread, and suddenly hours had flown by and two strangers shared secrets and future plans.

Since that day, our friendship has been so much more than just companionship — it has become a shared vision. We dream, plan, and support each other in the wild, exciting process of building our own paths. Both of us are currently navigating the same questions: starting our businesses, stepping into independence, learning to balance the creative heart with the business mind.

Having someone who walks this road alongside me, who truly understands both sides, is something I will be forever grateful for. Being able to ask questions or just share ideas...

This September, Alena will bring her magic to our first cielo retreat retreat with her much-loved Natural Dyeing workshop and a Sound Bath that will be pure soul medicine. And on September 11th, we will host a Supper Club in Palma together — to gather our communities around one table, share stories, and celebrate the connections that light us up.

Some friendships simply feel meant to be. Alena, you are one of them. <3
