From hangover to healing journey, the new way of travelling
It is no longer news to talk about retreats, solo spiritual journeys, and trips to find oneself. It is well known that the trend in recent years among young people, especially those aged 25 and above, is to opt for a trip that leaves a mark, that enhances oneself, one’s knowledge, and one’s network of contacts.
Google search statistics speak for themselves: in recent years, the most popular vacations are those that combine social life, activities, and inner connection. But why has this been happening in recent years? The answer is post-COVID-19. Yes, that’s right, COVID has also changed the way we travel and reshuffled priorities, especially among young people.
The Rise of Mindful Travel Among Europeans
But what does “mindful travel” mean? Literally, it translates as “traveling consciously,” and that’s exactly what it is. Mindful travel stems from the need to be aware of what you are doing, why you are doing it, and to savor every single moment.
Surf and yoga retreats are increasingly popular, especially among Europeans who are increasingly escaping from a highly structured and business-oriented society. In fact, it is not difficult to go to a surf camp Bali and find that most of the guests are European. All this has prompted international platforms such as Booking and Airbnb to add options for accommodation offering retreats and spiritual journeys.
What Surf & Yoga Retreats in Bali Offer (That Party Hostels Don’t)
Imagine finding yourself in a hostel, surrounded by people your age who are looking to party. You would undoubtedly have a very fun and carefree vacation. But imagine instead finding yourself at a surf & yoga retreat Bali, surrounded by unspoiled and wild nature, with time marked by the sound of gongs and waves. Add to that a group of people who share your passions: nature, sport, movement, and a love for mental well-being. All this brings with it the real possibility of creating genuine, true, and lasting connections, exchanges of cultures, ideas, and life. Waking up in the morning and knowing that there is a whole group of people with you who can’t wait to do yoga at dawn, eat a healthy breakfast, and jump into the water for a group surf session.
Thanks to our personal experience, we can say with certainty that we have created the deepest, most beautiful, and above all, most lasting connections in more conscious and healthy environments. Obviously, without taking away that touch of fun and madness that is always needed and that can also be found during a stay at a surf camp Bali.
Why This Trend Resonates with Europeans
And why should this type of relaxing vacation resonate so much with us Europeans? European society is increasingly focused on sustainability, the search for authenticity and simplicity, and above all, life experiences rather than travel. In recent years, teleworking has become increasingly popular in Europe, and as many studies show, this allows employees to enjoy life much more by being able to travel while they work. Needless to say, after all the hours spent in endless traffic jams, exhausting waits at stations, pointless arguments, and stressed-out people… a surf & yoga retreat Bali is just what every European needs.
