Learn more about Our Journey

Follow us to the Wild Heart of Italy…

to the ‘hidden’ regions of Ciociaria & Molise in central Italy.

“Italy today is far more Etruscan in its pulse than Roman; and will always be so. The Etruscan element is like the grass of the field and the sprouting of corn, in Italy: it will always be so.”

- DH Lawrence, ‘Etruscan Places: travels through forgotten Italy’

Follow us to Antica Arabia…

to the unexplored, artistic & natural region of Ras al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates.

“My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless. Neither body or soul.

I belong to the Beloved. I have put duality away, I have seen that the two worlds are one; One I seek, One I know, One I see, One I call.

First, last, outer, inner, only that breath breathing human being.”

- Rûmi
