Celebrate the harvest of Mesoamerica in the Nicoya Peninsula blue zone famous for its positive effects on longevity and quality of life. Live longer, be happy. Relax, philosophize, hands-on cooking, eat, explore, swim, laugh with us, and learn from Professional Culinary Educators who trained and taught at the Culinary Institute of America.
Discover the relationship between your body, mind, and spirit with what and how you cook and eat.
Create and experience art of all kinds. We will explore the jungle and beaches to gain inspiration and materials to create art, we will create sculptures that will decompose and leave them for nature to enjoy, we will make leaf prints, paint rocks, use our bodies to dance with the wind and water without judgement, and so much more, we look forward to creating with you.
