We came to the Plum Village summer retreat for the first time with our twelve-year-old son and seven-year-old daughter. As a family with mixed experiences of camping, we had a wonderful time sleeping under the star-filled sky and eating wholesome food. Our children really enjoyed being outdoors for 8–10 hours a day, giving them the freedom to be themselves in a safe retreat environment. As parents, we learned to let go, which also provided us with time and space to breathe, listen, and enjoy each other’s company. Plum Village was truly a place of love and refuge.
