Your base is Tekanda Lodge, a serene hilltop retreat nestled on a working tea plantation and recently celebrated by Condé Nast. It’s a place where the pace softens, the air is fragrant, and your shoulders finally drop. Yoga, surf lessons, and wild swims become tools for renewal — anchoring you in nature and gently shaking off the static of daily life.
But what makes this experience truly meaningful is the opportunity to contribute. You'll spend time with Gamata Athak, a grassroots women’s empowerment charity, supporting local women as they build confidence, learn conversational English, and develop practical skills to thrive in a changing world. Whether you’re teaching, mentoring, or simply connecting, your presence creates a ripple effect—with impact on both sides.
The journey ends in the highlands, where a sunrise hike up Ella’s Peak delivers sweeping views and a quiet sense of accomplishment. It’s the kind of moment that stays with you—a reminder of your strength, your purpose, and the power of doing something just for you. This isn’t about escape. It’s about expansion.
And it just might change your life.
High five your inner self, fuel your mojo and return home enriched with a guaranteed sense of achievement. And that’s a promise.
