Berlin-Charlottenburg has undergone a fascinating transformation in recent years: once known as a bourgeois district, a creative and cosmopolitan scene has emerged around Kantstraße. Here, art, gastronomy, and urban lifestyle blend in a unique way – and right in the middle of it all is Hotel Wilmina, a hidden gem that serves as both a retreat and a source of inspiration.

Ah yes! This is what it feels like when you find your inner self again. In everyday life, we often get lost in work or other distractions and forget to be mindful of ourselves. But there are places that can help you to embark on this powerful journey again. For example, the four-star Hotel Alpin Juwel – a gem with a holistic detox retreat.

There are some moments in the mountains that are particularly beautiful because you can’t predict or evoke them. They just happen. This includes the appearance of animals in nature. Encounters with capricorns or golden eagles and the wild, unadulterated behaviour of the animals make up the magic of the moment. A good starting point for the search for the so-called Big Five is the Gradonna****s Mountain Resort at Kals am Großglockner.

Proper nutrition is part of holistic well-being. Of course, this is also recognised at Melea – The Health Concept, a retreat in Hungary with an innovative concept for well-being. Medical Manager Eszter Répási tells us about bad eating and drinking habits and how nutrition plans are created. Chef Gábor Gyurik reveals his favourite smoothie recipe and which sacred unit of measurement he uses for wine.
