The Curious Pin-up Retreat
A 6-Day Sanctuary for Women Who Dare To Desire
A collaboration with Shy & Curious, exploring intimacy and love without fear and shame
A Sanctuary for Women Who Dare To Desire
You’ve been taught to shrink. To soften your edges, silence your cravings, and lock your desires into a box and set them aside while you step into the roles that the world sees you in. And let’s face it: self-love is often code for "I should” followed by a "but…” as we leave it last on the to-do list.
It's time to rebel.
Together with Shy & Curious, we invite you to a getaway to Hoi An, Vietnam, a magical destination for a rendevouz with YOU. Give yourself permission to move slowly, to be seen deeply, and to leave a little lighter and inspired. Let go of your fears and reveal that glamorous favourite version of YOU!
This all-inclusive 6-day luxury retreat will blend:
-
Private boudoir session for each guest that will feel like a soulful conversation to celebrate your beauty and story
-
Intentional workshops that feel like tea with a confidante as we awaken your sensuality and self-trust
-
Curated local sensual experiences to rediscover yourself through playful exploration and renewed focus
-
Time for yourself as you soak up the sun by the private villa’s pool, beaches or wander through Hoi An Ancient Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site
-
A safe space to be seen and heard as you meet other women in their journey of unlearning what society wants and claiming who you truly are
From morning mediations to evening reflections, each moment is crafted to nourish your mind, body and spirit. Let's rewrite the rules of pleasure and joy together.
We keep this retreat intentionally small and personal. This short application helps us understand your story and how to support you well. Take 20 quiet minutes and share what feels true.
