Who's the retreat for?

Do you need to recharge? Do you feel stuck or uncertain in your life? Our African retreats will support you on your journey. You might be -

 

  • a young professional who has always over-prioritized career

  • in the beginning of a self-development journey, lacking guidance

  • needing time away to reflect or consider decisions in life

  • a socially aware person, who values social and individual change for the good

 

Our past guests shared with us the impact of our retreat on their daily lives, and a desire for growth has always been the heart of our groups' dynamics.

Who we are?

Adama is part of Bbanga Project, an accredited NGO improving lives of Lake Victoria communities since 2013.

Our strength lies in our diversity, local knowledge, and each one's unique background and qualities. Together we bring the best African experiences to support self--realization, and meaningful exploration. ​​​​​
