The Giving Experience — Community Member Event — Dec 2025

🎁 The Giving Experience

End the year with new beginnings, sharing the joy and generosity of Christmas.

We're excited to share a collaboration with one of our members, Sabrina.

Together, we'll host a gathering in December that will help us all to let go of the past and open up to a fresh start. Let's all grow and give with gratitude. We're already grateful to Sabrina for bringing us together in December.

A message from her:

🎄 Hi everyone! With Christmas approaching, I’d love to offer a small gift to our group as a sign of gratitude for the enthusiasm and the meaningful exchanges we keep creating together. That’s why I’ve decided to open the doors of Marina di Castello – co-living and host a playful, light-hearted Porta Party: everyone brings a drink or a snack to share.

🎁 The special moment

The “Speaking Gift” I’ll ask each of you to bring a gift that is not purchased, but taken from your home: an object you’ve kept for a long time, that you don’t really need anymore… yet for some reason, you’ve never quite found the strength to let go of it. It carries an important emotion, but—often without noticing—it may also be holding us back from letting something new in.

Wrap it, bring it along, and during the evening it will be exchanged completely at random.

Once we release our own wrapped gift, we’ll be ready to open the one we receive. Whoever receives it may see a completely different meaning in it compared to the person who gave it. And that’s why it will be helpful to write on a small piece of paper what this gift represents symbolically for the first desire or goal we want to manifest in 2026. 👉 If preferred, this can also be written anonymously.

🌱 The intention

To create space within ourselves. To transform what weighs on us into something that opens new possibilities. To welcome what we truly desire. And to make a small declaration of intent that symbolically increases the chance of seeing that desire take shape in the new year.
