The Self Project Retreat

The Self Project Retreat

Founder and Tour Leader of Verde Italia, Melanie, has always loved people, food, and the art of slow living. With a background in fashion and event management, her heart was naturally drawn to Italy’s timeless elegance. After years working with local mentor Mario Santoro of True Umbria, she now partners with Lisa of The Self Project to bring guests an immersive Umbrian experience—where rolling hills, artisanal culture, and mindful connection come together in a retreat designed to rejuvenate body, mind, and spirit.
