New year, new travels! At Blue Sky Escapes, we are dreaming of Spain this year, in particular its sultry South, Andalucia. Take a jaunt there and these are the experiences you could have:

1-3: There’s nothing quite like staring out at La Alhambra in Granada on a moonlit night. While the city has many vistas for it, one of the best lies in a private carmen in the historic neighborhood of Albaicin, Granada. The carmen’s master suite opens up to unrivalled views of the famous fortress, which shines timelessly nearly a millennia after it was built. Want a more convivial gathering? This carmen has an extensive garden and terrace where a privately catered dinner party can be arranged for you – complete with the marvellous melodies of Andalucia – with an unforgettable backdrop!

4-5: Feisty flamenco! What is a visit to Spain without a late night out – have your fill of delicious Spanish fare and tapas, and enjoy the heat and passion of the flamenco dancers. You can watch flamenco in restaurants and bars, on street corners and even in caves in Andalucia; your Spanish sojourn will be incomplete without it.

6-7: Stay in a historic Paradores. Andalucia has a few of these historic castles and fortresses-turn-lodges, and there is one right outside its capital Sevilla. Paradores de Carmona provides sumptuous accommodation in the tranquil and historic town of Carmona. Spend a day exploring the cobblestone lanes without the tourist hoards before checking into your beautiful room overlooking the Andalucian planes.

8-9: Indulge in farm-to-table caviar. In a tiny little village called Riofrio between Sevilla and Granada, a Spanish fish farmer discovered the perfect place to raise sturgeons for caviar. Riofrío is the favourite caviar of gourmet shops all over the world and numerous Michelin-starred chefs. Due to its freshness and nuanced flavours, Riofrío Caviar is recognised as one of the world's best. Drop in to taste and buy caviar, and if booked ahead of time, you can even learn to make caviar and have lunch in the peaceful farm!

If a trip to Spain is something you think you would enjoy, DM us – we have many ideas to suit every traveller.

For thousands of years, since the Age of Antiquity, Egypt has bewitched and beguiled, its wealth of astonishing wonders reflecting a heritage stretching to the dawn of recorded time. While of staggering proportions, the Great Pyramids of Giza – sole survivors of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World – are only the beginning. There’s far more to Egypt’s timeless allure, from the charms of Cairo to the twisting ribbon of the Nile, and not least Egypt’s trove of untold tombs and temples scattered wide from the Delta to the deserts.

Chances are when you make your own or come across a travel bucket list, Iceland always makes the cut. That’s because the Land of Fire and Ice constantly and consistently woos travellers with its cinematic landscapes, Nordic culture and disarming hospitality. In this dreamy destination of light and darkness, bouncing across black sand deserts, diving between tectonic plates in glacial waters, watching a pink midnight sun, and camping beneath the aurora borealis’ streaks are just some of the endless escapades to have and hold onto… forever.

Switzerland needs no introduction, but it sure continues to pull the stops to woo international tourism with its superb landscapes in every season, its sparkling cities and beautiful hamlets, and its well-known efficiency and ease for touring. The country may be small but it packs a punch. From this village of Samnaun, a gondola takes you through the alps and onwards to Austria in a few steps! Few countries in the world share their borders with so many other diverse destinations and elevates the region together with them - this makes Switzerland all the more appealing.

Let’s just lay it out – there is truly no place in the world like the land of the rising sun. A place steeped in timeless tradition perfectly co-existing with mind-boggling modernity and futurism; a capital home to 38 million people and the largest in the world, yet still so unapologetically Japanese; crafts and skills so complex that a lifetime of dedication does not promise mastery. Japan is as enigmatic and out-of-grasp as it is so desperately sought after. Japanese culture is not only one of the richest and most unique in the world, Japanese people’s never-ending quest for perfection also fascinates and often delights visitors. A retreat there is stepping into another realm of experience: one so intentionally and sublimely designed for an awakening.

If having a truly spectacular experience floats your boat, we can make it happen for you. DM or email us at [email protected]

A world in a country, South Africa is a jaw-dropping patchwork of peoples and landscapes, from the grassy highveld to the game-packed bushveld to the impossibly verdant southern Cape Coast. Though marked with a harrowing recent past, South Africa’s sights are set firmly on its brightening future, as easily seen in its vibrant cultural capitals of Cape Town and Johannesburg – ‘the City of Gold’. Embark on a fascinating township tour and stop at Joburg’s slew of moving museums. In Cape Town, visit the historic Bo-Kaap district, explore the lively markets and board a boat to visit Mandela’s home of almost three decades on Robben Island.

For many, Bhutan is a fable and a dream: a mysterious and remote Himalayan Kingdom, “gross national happiness” and a big claim to be carbon negative – is this country for real? It is a land of marvellous monasteries shrouded in clouds, idyllic farming villages and vast expanses yet to be reached by any foreigner; all of these have stood the test of time and globalisation, and Bhutan is determined to protect them at all costs. It makes no pretence that it will only open its doors to a well-heeled few. Visiting paradise comes at a price, but brings priceless rewards.

A corporate or group retreat to Bhutan is the perfect way to reignite and rejuvenate all the senses, and to enter a portal to a magical, spiritual world. Whether you’re huffing up to glory at the dream-like Tiger’s Nest, meditating by a brook fed by glacial waters or at the edge of your seat on the world’s most difficult airport approach, we invite you to take the plunge on a one-of-a-kind visit to Bhutan.

Tracing the Legacies of Echizen: One of the journeys launched as part of our ‘Japan: Journeys Less Trodden’ series, taking you from the stunning landscapes, culture and riches of Fukui Prefecture to the ancient imperial capital of Kyoto via the “Saba Kaido”, or otherwise known as the “Mackerel Route”, an ancient network of roads that connects the former capitals of Nara and Kyoto to the once bustling seaport of Obama in Fukui Prefecture.

The roads from coast-to-capital served as a conduit for ideas, beliefs, innovations, and aesthetics that would help shape Japan’s complex culture over the centuries. The “Saba Kaido” is primarily used for transporting seafood – and in particular, salted mackerel, from the bountiful Wakasa Bay, but would also be used by Buddhist emissaries, samurai lords, fishmongers and peddlers of sea salt. Today, these roads have been granted National Heritage status, and some segments of the old route can still be hiked in their original, unpaved conditions.

Do you ever wish that you could just reach for a button and hit 'pause', so as to slow down, disconnect and heal? This is a common line of thought for participants when asked about their intentions for signing up for our retreats. An essential component to our An Emergence of Self series is the 'Day of Silence', an optional day where all are invited to practice the art of maintaining silence (Mouna) — this gives participants a break from expanding energy outwards and creating more space to journey inwards. For most, this helps in the unfolding process, and unlocks a deeper connection between the mind and body. When reflecting on the practice, participants share their experience of heightened awareness, liberation and renewal, with many incorporating a silent ritual into their daily lives. Curious about the experience of Mouna? We'd love for you to join us in embracing silence at our upcoming retreats, 'Awakening New Patterns'. Dates: 24 – 26 Oct & 31 Oct – 2 Nov 2021 (only a few spots left!) To learn more about Mouna, click here https://blueskyescapes.co/mouna-the-art-of-maintaining-silence-2/ to read our journal. ✍

As creatures of habit, we find comfort in familiarity, establishing routines and rehearsing the same thought patterns we’ve grown accustomed to on autopilot. Our retreat practitioner, Amber Sawyer PhD, poses a thought-provoking question — “What would happen if we could simply change the aperture from which we view our current circumstances, thoughts and moments?” Subtle shifts in awareness, like the simple act of mindful tea drinking — an otherwise ordinary day to day indulgence— can transform how we experience life completely. This October and November, join us in our next 3D2N An Emergence of Self retreat series — Awakening New Patterns. Find the freedom to recreate who you want to be and how you show up in the world. Awaken new ways of being, adopt healthier, mindful habits, and connect more fully with the Self, others around you, and your environment. #AwakeningNewPatterns #BSERetreats

Chef Ming presenting at our wellness retreat, An Emergence of Self

Late last year, we approached acclaimed chef, Ming Tan, to curate an epicurean vegan dining experience for our guests at the first edition of An Emergence of Self. The intention was to manifest living well in every aspect, down to how we procure sustenance.⁠🌱 ⁠ To wit, the organic vegetables that went into our retreat-exclusive menu, 'An Ode to Urban Farming' were planted and sustainably grown exclusively for the retreat and harvested from Natsuki’s Garden one day prior to the meal.⁠ ⁠ Noting the stakes, our decision to commission the trailblazing planting initiatives by founder and horticulturalist, Benjamin Ang, was motivated in part by the successful cultivation of over 650 varieties of plant life in his urban farming setup.⁠ ⁠ When you dine at our table, you can be assured that you're committing to sustainability in a series of sensorial stimulants.✨ Read our latest journal and uncover the seemingly endless potential for mindful eating. https://bit.ly/diningthesustainableway #organicfood #vegetarian #sustainable #urbanfarm #singapore

While #WFH may occasionally mean longer working hours and limited social interactions, it doesn’t have to be so — prioritising our mental and emotional well-being can help us make the most out of this arrangement.

At long last, the wait is over. We're returning with a second edition of Blue Sky Escapes' Retreats: An Emergence of Self — Finding Stillness (16-18 May 2021 (fully committed); 23-25 May 2021 (limited spaces)). ⁠ ⁠-⁠ ⁠Come mid-year, you’re invited to hit the pause button to journey into your inner world. As part of our An Emergence of Self series, and set in an intimate, soothing enclave with calming nature-filled surrounds, our three-day retreat takes you right to the core of your being in search of stillness.⁠ ⁠ With kindred spirits and an endless sea of flora and green for company, re-align, re-group and re-invigorate yourself with intentional, heart-centered embodiment practices, nourishing meals, and the magic that inner silence brings.⁠ ⁠ Learn the art of letting go, non-attachment and awareness, then embrace your own process of emergence as you integrate inner discoveries into your outer world.⁠ ⁠ Get in touch or discover more here: https://blueskyescapes.co/eos-retreats-finding-stillness/ Early Access ends 12 April 2021, 19:00 SGT. #BlueSkyEscapes #wellness #retreats #Singapore #yoga #meditation

This International Day of Happiness – the happiest place on Earth, Bhutan – beckons. At this idyllic kingdom, national wellbeing is a priority, and happiness is a way of life. Have you heard of the Gross National Happiness Index? It's a uniquely Bhutanese measure of the wellbeing of its people that interestingly, guides the nation's policy-making.⁠ When the lockdown came into full effect, our partner, Tshering Tashi, and family retreated to their own private monastery in the Paro mountains, where they'd nested for a bit and got busy planting an organic vegetable garden. On this grassy knoll stands his 10-year-old son, Singye Samdu Tashi, reciting his life ruminations.⁠ Young as he may be, Singye has some lofty virtues about the ways of the world. As we've heard from Singye, prioritising our loved ones might just be the secret to contentment. Leave us a comment below to share what brings you happiness in life. #BlueSkyEscapes #InternationalDayOfHappiness #Bhutan #GNHI

It's been a month since our wellness retreat, An Emergence of Self. We fondly recall waking to fresh morning light, crisp air brushing across our skin and the resonating baritone of a gong outside our doors at Villa Samadhi in Singapore. Our neighbour, Labrador Nature Reserve, was also home to the great outdoors, offering us generous views of an endless sea of green. We embarked on a mindful stroll along the reserve's winding paths, allowing the scents, sights and sounds to permeate our senses. To cultivate self-awareness of our body and emotions, we also engaged in embodied movement sessions. Having embraced the wonders of nature, some participants have since incorporated new habits and practices in their daily life - such as a weekend ritual of forest bathing and silent hikes to usher in tranquil mornings. If you're looking to explore transformative wellness practices, stay tuned for our upcoming wellness retreats.
