It’s easy to see how Karen, known as The Paparazzi Yogi, brings a unique blend of creativity and calm to the retreat experience. Through her yoga classes, she invites guests to soften, release, and move with the natural flow of the moment. At the same time, her photography captures the retreat’s most meaningful impressions, preserving those fleeting memories in a way that feels both personal and lasting.
Beyond the mat and behind the lens, Karen is deeply drawn to gardening and plant care, and she supports the retreat’s gardening and permaculture plans with genuine enthusiasm. Her connection to nature also shines through in her free time, when she enjoys birdwatching, hiking, and cycling. Warm, observant, and grounded, Karen adds a thoughtful presence that enriches both the atmosphere and the experience.
