JazZenJourney A fabulous travel adventure, promoting awareness and appreciation of the art of Jazz seamlessly combined with the philosophy of Zen. Live fully!

The essence of Zen is awareness; awareness of thoughts, words and actions, how we respond to the present moment and all that arises and falls away as we move through our lives. This is the essence of Jazz as well; the ability to listen and respond, moment to moment, in the interplay and exchange of notes and chords. When we engage all of our senses to live fully, embracing our lives as an infinite

connection with everything and everyone, we create the music of life and take part in a flowing, seamless dance with conscious awareness that every step, every movement is intimately related. When we pay attention, when we are awake in the “now”, with an open mind, we find meaning and substance in our lives, and we nourish ourselves and others with no thought of holding back or hoarding. This is the supreme meal, the joy we can only experience in relationship to others. This is the nature of JazZenJourney

Steve and I have once again been so fortunate to experience to beauty and magic of Tuscany on this, our seventh JazZenJourney trip to Borgo San Fedele, Radda in Chianti, with world class jazz under the stars every night, the best wines Italy can offer, delicious, authentic, gourmet Tuscan cuisine, rolling green hills with vineyards as far as ones can see, tours of wineries with private, catered dinners and wine tastings, quaint hilltop villages, ceramic shops, and much more, all infused with the passion and warmth of the Italian people.
Our group this year was an amazing collection of people from all over, with old friends rejoining us, and new friends experiencing this trip for the first time. Many have said they will return next year!
Our deepest gratitude to Nicolò, Renata, and Filippo, the owners and caretakers of San Fedele for creating and sustaining this sacred space for us and so many others.
