Bye, bye Nariva dream...

Nov 16, 2025 7:01 am

My darling ,


This is a message I’ve been sitting with for a while, and today I want to share it honestly and openly: I’ve decided to bring Nariva Travel to a halt.


Nariva was created from so much heart — the desire to offer soulful, ease-filled getaways for women who needed rest, connection, and a moment to breathe. And that part of the dream still feels beautiful and true to me.

But here’s the honest side you deserve to hear.


As a working mum who can realistically organize only a couple of group trips a year, the European Package Travel Directive made the business impossible to sustain. To legally offer just two or three carefully curated trips per year, I had to comply with a mountain of requirements: financial guarantees, insurances, protected funds, credit lines, and a long list of obligations that cost far more than I could ever recoup.


I was offering trips at prices that didn’t even cover those costs — yet I still heard that the trips were “too expensive.” At some point I had to face the truth: I can’t build a business on love alone, especially not one that starts out in the red.


And so, with a mix of sadness and relief, I’ve chosen to close this chapter.


But one thing stays.


The part of Nariva I genuinely enjoyed — and many of you told me you loved as well — is the monthly newsletter. The seasonal inspirations, the gentle reminders to slow down, the moments of calm and beauty… that still feels very alive for me.


I’ll continue sending one monthly email, just like before: soft, seasonal, meaningful.


🫶 No trips, no sales — just inspiration and connection.


If you’d like to keep receiving the newsletter, you don’t need to do anything.


If this is where our paths part, you can unsubscribe anytime — truly no hard feelings.


Thank you for supporting Nariva, for cheering on the dream, and for being here.


I’m grateful for every message, every shared excitement, and every woman who said “this is what I’ve been looking for.”


That meant everything.


Love,

Caro ❤️
