Home Retreats

In this quiet village home,

surrounded by mountains that
shift gently with the seasons,


You are invited
to meet yourself as life,

with care.

Our days are simple —

eating, breathing, walking,
and making by hand,

with tea, fire, plants.

Unhurried.

Arrive as you are,
without needing to sort anything out.

This is a gentle space

to return to,

and just be.


Welcome home.

Duration

6 Day 5 Nights

Who we host

Women, and couples.

Age

21 to 56


Capacity

Each slot is held for two adults,
arriving together.

Who is this for

Anyone who wishes for a quiet pause
without filling up the days.


And for those who wonder

what becomes possible
when daily life is lived differently.


You don’t need a reason to come.

Sometimes, the wish to arrive
is already enough.

.

About the experience

Hosting only one booking each time,

your days here unfold in a personal way.


During your stay,

there is no rigid plan,
no fixed itinerary to follow.

Time is held for togetherness,
as well as solitude.


You will spend your days
at home and around home —

and you are invited to live with
the everyday rhythm
of the season you arrive.


Daily moments are
quiet paths,

for a tired body to rest,

a noisy mind to anchor,

and for a heart to have space.


You don’t need to prepare.
Leave expectations behind.


Let life do the rest.

And may peace be enough.

What's included:

  • 1. One on one hosting by Ting

    This retreat is hosted personally by Ting,

    with care and presence, during our days together.

  • 2. Accomodation -
    the entire second floor of the home, including:

    - a tea room

    - a private bedroom
    - an outdoor deck


    *Some shared moments, such as tea sessions,

    may take place in the tea room.

  • 3. Home-cooked meals

    prepared with local and seasonal ingredients.


    Please note:

    We usually have two meals a day —

    a brunch around 10:30–11:00 am,

    and an early dinner between 5:30–6:30 pm.


    This is the daily rhythm of the home,

    one that allows for clarity of mind

    and a lighter body.


    If needed,

    a simple additional meal or light snacks

    can be added.

    *Meals outside the home are not included, unless specified.

  • 4. Everyday moments for

    resting and noticing.

    Such as:


    - Tea with incense

    - Books by the river

    - Joining in meal preparation

    - Slow walks along the fields

    - Silent sitting at sunrise

    - Conversations by the campfire

    - Mindless drawing

    - Open time for solitude



    *Everyday moments vary with each retreat,
    and cannot be planned in advance.
    They shift with the weather and the seasons.

    You’re gently invited to move with the flow,
    and with your body’s pace.

  • 5. A slow day in Shaxi Ancient Town.

    This is a day entirely for yourself,

    with flexible timing.

    It includes:

    - round-trip transportation

    - lunch

    And Ting may share a few unique places by dear friends —

    hand made tea,
    homemade cakes,
    silversmithing,
    and live acoustic music;

    each shaped by their own characters.

    You are welcome to wander the old town
    at your own pace,
    and form your own connection with it.

  • 6. A day creating with plants

    You will spend a day dyeing with plants,

    together with Ting.


    You will dye a cotton shawl —

    a piece shaped by your own hands,

    and yours to take home.
