Have you ever wanted to discover the secret behind the beauty of a marble masterpiece?
Before exploring historic Florence, you have the opportunity to meet a renowned Florentine sculptor, who transforms raw marble into unimaginable works of art.
Florence offers unique and unforgettable views from various vantage points, but one of the most spectacular is undoubtedly from Piazzale Michelangelo. This famous panoramic spot provides a breathtaking view of the city, encompassing the Duomo, the Ponte Vecchio, and the Arno River in a single glance.
Beyond its undeniable beauty, this place also serves as a powerful symbol of female strength. As you stand and admire the panorama, it’s a reminder of the resilience and determination of women who have shaped history.
Florence, with its rich artistic and cultural legacy, invites reflection on the vital contributions of women—whether in art, science, or social progress—who have played a central role in shaping both the city’s and society’s evolution.
As we descend the steps from the piazza, we pass through enchanting spots that lead us to the historic Viale di San Niccolò, where hidden gems await discovery.
Along the way, we encounter charming gardens, small artisan workshops, and secret corners that whisper stories of Florence’s past.
We also stumble upon the fascinating “buchette fiorentine“, small wine windows once used to sell wine directly from the cellars. One particularly intriguing buchetta is located on Via delle Belle Donne, evoking the elegance and mystery of the women who lived and walked these streets. Florence, with its layers of history, invites us to explore not only its iconic landmarks but also the intimate details that make the city truly magical.
Sipping a “Prosecco” made in Italy, we navigate the waters of the Arno River at sunset with our own boat and a dedicated rower.
This experience offers a breath taking view of the setting sun, allowing us to appreciate the landscape from a unique perspective, directly from the embrace of the river. During this moment of conviviality, we have the opportunity to reflect on the importance of changing our point of view: looking at the same scene from different angles can reveal encouraging and rejuvenating discoveries that stimulate our self-esteem and potential.
In this context, we discover together that every shift in perspective is a step toward greater awareness of ourselves and our capabilities.

But most important, this gathering strengthen our bonds, empower us through shared experiences, and give us space to reflect and connect on a deeper level.
The afternoon is dedicated to relaxation in our location surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, with a refreshing dip in the pool.

Surely this long weekend seemed to fly by, but it certainly will leave you with unforgettable memories.
‘Memories are the most precious gift, they enrich the soul and accompany us over time as a formative experience‘.
Quote by Nadia Procopio – Founder of Sheshinex.
In these days, not only you have experienced special moments, but you also have formed new friendships, bonds that, like all valuable things, need to be nurtured to bear their best fruit.
You have discovered how important it is to share your emotions, because in doing so, we realize we are not alone, and that opening up is an act of rebirth.
You have understood that we often expect too much from ourselves, turning this pressure into personal dissatisfaction, which ties us to our comfort zone, trapping us in a harmful loop.
But today is a special day: you have become aware that you are enough, and when you shine, life smiles at you
