"I will be talking about this retreat forever! I have a hard time fully explaining to people the impact this retreat had on me, but the best way to put it is: see for yourself and you won't regret it. This retreat brought love, community, strength, connection, knowledge, and growth.
For that, I am forever grateful! I can't wait to do it again. :)"

A NOTE FROM CAROLE
Founder of Free Spirited Wanderer, E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher, and Lifestyle Coach
Welcome - I’m so happy you’re here! This will be my 2nd retreat at Casa Fuzetta and the 28th I’ve hosted overall. I love traveling off the beaten path, immersing myself in local culture, and embracing the importance of slowing down to be truly present. These values are the heart of a wholesome retreat, helping us feel alive and aligned with an authentic travel and yogic experience.
​
This year, I felt called to make the Portugal retreat women-only. I believe in the power of more women courageously taking up space in this world, and owning that space in their truest form. This retreat will be a container for women to feel seen, heard, and empowered through connection, discussion, yoga, meditation, workshops, intuitive dance, and journaling.
​
My hope for you is that these retreats prepare you for your life’s journey—creating space to step into the fullest expression of yourself, walk with purpose, and live with love.
"Being a student of Carole is one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve been lucky enough to have in my life. Her vulnerability and open heart comes through if you’ve ever been fortunate enough to have a conversation with her or take her class. To sum it all up if you are lucky enough to share time with Carole you will take something away from it and I guarantee she’ll help you find something in yourself that you didn’t realize was there all the time."
