An intimate gathering at Tampah Hills, Lombok
A small, intimate, hand-selected gathering coming together at two stunning villas in Tampah Hills, Lombok. This is our landing pad after Bali Spirit Festival and the Yawanawa ceremonies. A moment to breathe, integrate, celebrate, and go deeper together.
This is not an event. It is a gathering.
You are not a guest. You are part of the field.
"The kind of sacred experience that actually leaves you inspired and filled up."
Breathwork, cacao ceremony, ice baths, kundalini activation, and somatic experiences woven through each day.
From beach breakfasts at Biras to home cooked dinners and sunset BBQs with flowers and candlelight.
Live acoustic sessions under the stars, beach fires with ocean sounds, and the kind of silence that heals.
Real conversation. Sharing the gifts that we are, make, and bring for each other. Connection that goes beyond surface.
Professional photographer and videographer on site. Everyone gets amazing photos and raw video footage from the gathering.
Facilitated by all of us. Everyone shares their gifts, skills, and talents in a collaborative, co-created experience.

While Anita & I will be celebrating our birthdays on the 20th and 23rd in Bali, this extended birthday gathering is mostly for me, James, to continue to play and celebrate life, especially since around my birthday I will be deeply focused on hosting the Yawanawa. To help cover the hard costs of pulling this off, I am asking for a small contribution.
To secure your room, please RSVP below and make your $150 per person payment.
Maybe... Some friends are only joining for Villa Kami (Apr 29 - May 1), and some for Villa Kastil Utara only (May 1 - May 3), and some for the full journey. I have messaged you directly about what we have available for you. Select and confirm your dates on the RSVP form.
We will ride scooters together as a group, from the suggested flights. If you arrive on a different flight, a private car can be arranged for approximately 300,000 - 400,000 IDR (~$20-25 USD).
This is not a formal retreat. It is a gathering of friends. Think Burning Man meets luxury villa meets birthday party. The elemental framework gives the days a natural rhythm, but everything flows organically. Come as you are. Participate in what calls you. Rest when you need to.
Breakfast is included daily with the villa. We have a home cooked dinner on Day 2, Beach Dinner on Day 3, and a BBQ celebration on Day 4 all planned but not included. All other meals will need to be paid by each person. Expect to spend $15-25 per meal for lunches and other dinners. And I expect outside of breakfast, just one other meal per day.
A professional photographer and videographer will be documenting the gathering throughout. This is part of the $150 contribution. Everyone will receive photos and access to raw video footage. This content also serves as proof-of-concept material for future retreats at Tampah Hills, so come camera ready when you feel like it!
Both villas have WiFi. That said, this is an invitation to be present. We encourage putting your phone on airplane mode during ceremonies and shared experiences. The best content comes from being fully in the moment.
This is a hand-selected gathering and space is limited. If you would like to bring someone, please reach out to James directly on WhatsApp to discuss. We want to keep the energy intentional and the group intimate.
To secure your room, please make $150 per person payment.
Your RSVP has been received. James will be in touch on WhatsApp to confirm your spot.
