Testimonials
The retreat was inspiring and empowering. The focus on self-discovery meant I left with a deeper understanding of my personal motivations and how to be my authentic self. I would totally recommend it to any members of the LGBT+ community who want space to reflect about their future.

From the initial introductory emails to the post-retreat check-in, intentional care was taken to both inform and hold us as participants, way beyond my expectations. The structure of the retreat seemed very well thought through, yet always gave the impression that it was an open and spacious process. I would thoroughly recommend this retreat.

A taste of queer utopia! The Queer Leadership Retreat was so well organized and supported, and all of the programming (and space between programming) was thoughtfully planned. I left feeling more connected, rested and somehow also energized, and ready to take what I learned into my work and life. If you're considering joining a session or retreat with We Create Space– do it!

Do I need any prior experience to come to a retreat?
No, there is no prior experience needed to participate in our retreats.
How do I get to the retreat venue?
We'll pick you up in Barcelona city, or if you drive we’ll let you know how to get there.
Will I be sharing my room with someone?
Unless you book a private single occupancy room, yes. You’ll be sharing with other participants. But bedrooms are big, comfortable, and each has a private bathroom!
Can I choose who I share my room with?
If you choose a private 'twin' or 'double' room you can book for yourself and either your partner or friend. If you choose a shared 'dorm' or 'twin' you'll be allocated a room with another guest. If you'd prefer to share with someone of a specific gender we will do our best to accommodate to make things as comfortable as possible.
Will there be alcohol?
We might share a glass of natural wine during dinner, but rather than this do not expect alcohol to be around.
Do you offer any subsidies?
We want to make our retreats accessible to people who feel a strong call to do the process, and whose financial situation currently prevents them from paying full price. Each request for financial assistance is assessed in terms of the specific need and availability. If this applies to you, please reach out to us at hello@createspaceretreats, and we will gladly explore the options available.
How is the payment processed?
To secure your spot, a 50% deposit of the total amount is required at the time of booking, with the remaining balance due at least one month before the retreat begins.
