Sari Blum, a seasoned travel and portrait photographer.
I believe in the power of photography to tell stories and capture the humanity in every moment. For me, photography is more than a skill—it’s a way to connect with people, understand their world, and document the fleeting moments of life. My approach is all about finding beauty in the details, the real, the authentic. I love creating portraits or capturing intimate, candid moments that become artifacts of your life. On this trip I hope to guide you to see beyond the surface and capture images that feel meaningful and connected to what you have witnessed and that tell’s your story, the way you see the world.

Michele Ricucci , a travel and street photographer with a unique approach that combines art and healing.For me, photography is not just about capturing an image—it’s a tool for embracing creativity and connecting deeply with the world around me. With a focus on street photography, I will show you how to embrace the spontaneity of everyday life, encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone and photograph the world with a sense of wonder and curiosity. Through my lens, photography is an act of self-expression, healing, and growth.
Roberto, our Private Chef!
He is a born and raised Sicilian and restaurant owner in the outskirts of Trapani. Fun fact, Roberto and Michele used to be in a punk band together and have formed a lifelong friendship. Roberto will be with us making delicious breakfasts most mornings and will be leading us in our Italian cooking class, from market to plate.
We couldn’t be luckier to have Roberto by our side.
