Global Nomad Retreat - Tuscany!

JANERA.com cordially invites you to the first Global Nomad Retreat, September 7-13, 2008, at the gorgeous Il Pero Villa in the heart of Tuscany.

Participants in the Global Nomad Retreat will have plenty of time to engage in relaxing and restorative activities-lounging by the pool, roaming the surrounding countryside, visiting area wineries, shopping and strolling through neighboring towns-punctuated with sessions of yoga, meditation and structured conversation, during which guests will have the chance offer their personal perspectives and define what it means to be a Global Nomad.

The Last Flight of the Scarlet Macaw by Bruce Barcott
Matt Ransford
“The Last Flight of the Scarlet Macaw” by Bruce Barcott, a contributing editor at Outside magazine, is a portrait of an American expatriate, Sharon Matola, who lives in Belize and leads a fight against a corrupt government.

Saude & Alegria: Brazil’s Floating Hospital
