Welcome to P.S. Italy Retreats
P.S. Italy Retreats is founded by Gina Marcello, Ph.D. a university professor, author, and documentary filmmaker in partnership with Valerie Raffetto Manfredini, owner of Villa Tre’ Angeli Bed & Breakfast located in Bedonia (Parma province), Italy.
Workshops and retreats cater to those who are genuinely interested in experiencing Italian culture and hospitality without the overwhelming crowds. We offer truly custom vacation experiences the larger travel companies don’t or can’t provide.
Each year, P.S. Italy Retreats offers various week-long programs focused on a particular topic or learning experience. Think of it like a travel abroad experience for adults. Each year we offer different experiences.
Out Summer 2020, retreats were canceled due to Covid-19 but we’re planning exciting tours summer 2021.
Week 1: Travel Writing Workshop. The Travel Writing Workshop includes multiple tours and writing workshops. This week is all about connecting to a community of like-minded travel writers while exploring authentic Italy. You will return home refreshed and inspired
Week #2: Italian Spa Week is 100% about health and wellness. Many of us need to time detox from technology, relax, and enjoy some pampering. Italian Spa Week will take you to four different spas. Each spas has its own unique history and beauty. You will experience each one, and learn about different techniques for finding emotional and physical balance. You will return home refreshed and relaxed.
