Living in Senegal: A Deep Immersion… To Soften at Times
A warm and French-speaking destination, Senegal attracts a loyal French community, drawn by the hospitality of its people, the richness of its cultures, and a more relaxed pace of life. But living abroad, even in a welcoming and familiar country, can also come with a fast pace, personal or professional challenges, and sometimes a sense of distance.
To support this reality, Wellness Voyages offers French expatriates in Senegal well-being retreats designed to be experienced locally, in their native language, and in harmony with their lifestyle. These experiences are held in carefully selected venues and come in three complementary formats.
First, two-day well-being programs that offer a precious break to unwind, reconnect with oneself, and build connections with other French people living locally. Then, well-being days organized within French companies and institutions based in Senegal, to strengthen team cohesion while promoting wellness at work. Finally, more immersive multi-day retreats designed for those who wish to take a deeper breath, without necessarily leaving the country.
Whatever the format, each retreat is an invitation to slow down, refocus, and take care of yourself… while reconnecting with others, right here in Senegal.
Moments for Yourself
The climate, human interactions, and pace of life invite you to live differently. Living in Senegal often means learning to slow down, let go, and open up to another sense of time. This richness can also bring about a need for pause, refocus, or readjustment within yourself.
Even when everything seems fine on the surface, it’s valuable to give yourself moments to breathe, release pressure, and nurture your inner balance.
Breathe, Without Disrupting Your Daily Life
Living in Senegal means experiencing a life rich in encounters and contrasts, but also sometimes dealing with a sense of isolation or mental overload. These well-being experiences, designed for French people living locally, offer a chance to connect, feel understood, and reconnect with a uniquely French sense of well-being. Because taking care of yourself here and now, in a familiar and supportive environment, also means grounding yourself more deeply in your life abroad.
