A voyage
to feel liberate and love your voice your body and your spirit together with Igor and Arianna |
Travel to Cappadocia with Igor and Arianna, a Feeling Sound experience from May 25th to June 2nd, 9 days 8 nights. Walk and sing, rediscover balance and movement inside and out, experience your Voice.
An unforgettable journey, together in the mystical landscapes in nature, discovering the churches carved into the rock, ancient valleys home of the Sufis. Like them we will whirl and chant the zikr. The main purpose: to SING and discover ourselves and the enchanted places of Cappadocia, to explore our depth through the sound of our voice, following the call of freedom |
General program
|
We'll meet the Dervishes and, if possible, try to meditate, sing and play with them.
We will walk in the valleys at night because we have chosen this week
just in time for the Full Moon, which will add magic to the charm of the
place.
The great kindness of the people we meet and our guide will make us appreciate our journey led through the historical eras and the arts known since thousands of years as the production of ceramics and pottery, weaving kilims and carpets, and ebru, a magical technique of painting on fabric through the water. We will be traveling among the most beautiful places of Cappadocia, always away from mass tourism, except when we visit the most famous sites protected by UNESCO. We'll change accommodations in four places: Mustafapaşa, Soganli Rose Valley and Uchisar. |
We will sleep in small family run guesthouses, in double or triple rooms with private bathroom. We will stay two nights in a Byzantine monastery without electricity where we will sleep outdoors on a terrace or in the frescoed churches thousand years ago, where we have a bath and shower in common, but the uniqueness of the place will pay that little bit of adaptability that we need (who wants may sleep inside).
We will have fabulous breakfasts with fresh fruit, cheese and honey made by the families of the villages we visit. Each evening we will taste something new, always freshly cooked, our dishes are rich in vegetables, legumes and grains, those who wish can have a vegetarian or vegan menu. We will be accompanied by an official guide licensed by the Ministry of Tourism and technical management will be entrusted to a local agency. |
