“I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the incredibly talented Ivanna for organizing an unforgettable retreat in Puglia/Italy. Her warm and attentive approach, combined with a seamless all-inclusive experience, made our stay in this breathtaking location truly exceptional. From a welcome dinner at a charming restaurant in the heart of the city to a five-course seafood feast at a beachfront café, every detail added a special touch of elegance to an already remarkable journey. Not to mention, our meals at the stunning Mediterranean holiday home were perfectly arranged, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in creative writing without any distractions. Thank you, Ivanna, for this incredible experience—I can’t wait for the next one!”

Attending a writing retreat in Italy organized by Ivanna was an unforgettable experience. From the beginning, everything was perfectly planned and well-organized. Ivanna made sure the transfer from the airport to the meeting point was seamless, making the arrival stress-free. The welcome dinner, held in a stunning location, set the perfect tone for the retreat. The villa we stayed in was not only beautiful but also incredibly inspiring—an ideal environment for creativity to flourish.
A huge thank you to Ivanna for crafting such a magical Italian experience for us!

I had an incredible experience in Italy, thanks to Ivanna. It was my first trip, a long-awaited dream. The Puglia region, a writers’ retreat, a villa with an olive grove and trulli — everything felt magical. We spent our days with talented women, enjoying writing practice with Irena Karpa, trips to wineries, cheese factories, and cozy restaurants.
Ivanna thought of every detail: thoughtful gifts, a relaxed schedule, and shared meals prepared by chef Maria Ledina that filled the air with love. It was a perfect blend of rest, support, and the power of women.
Thank you, Ivanna, for giving me such a beautiful introduction to Italy and for the lasting friendships. I’ll always treasure the memories and would love to do it again!

All we had to do as participants was enjoy the experience and embrace the new moments, as all the everyday needs—accommodation, transport, food, entertainment—had already been taken care of. It was effortless, convenient, delicious, and beautiful.”
