You are not the same person in one place as you are in another.
Soak in the long view, and let the alchemy begin.
The shifting of light from dawn to dusk; the play of the clouds across the valley below; the symphony of tropical bird calls and sudden thunderstorms; the rotating cast of animal characters that will pop up to greet you during coffee and cocktail hour.
These elements and more combine to yield an atmosphere of alchemical change; even as things stay “the same,” the undercurrent is one of subtle transformation.
This is the perfect metaphor for what we hope you will gain from your time here — in whatever area of your life (or relationships) needs it most.
You know this intuitively:
The you who unloads the dishwasher and does the grocery shop and the Amazon returns and shuttles the kids back and forth is not the same you as the one who counted a dozen tropical birds on your morning ritual walk through the countryside.
The you who runs the board meetings and answers the emails and stays late at investor dinners and practically lives in the backseat of an Uber is not the same you as the one who sat shoulder to shoulder with your partner, watching a poppy-colored sun sink into the Pacific for the 9th evening in a row.
In other words: You contain multitudes.
Just as your hair responds instantly to a change in humidity; your deeper self – your spirit – begins to thrum in response the moment you arrive.
This is not your garden-variety luxury villa, and those seeking a vacation are advised to look elsewhere.
Rather, Vista Larga (translating to “Long View”) promises the incomparable, life-affirming gifts of perspective.
If you are craving a new perspective on your life, your relationships, your choices, your purpose, your vision for the future; Vista Larga will reveal to you — slowly, with attention — just how dynamic, ephemeral, and full of possibility things truly are.
And the best part is that you don’t have to do anything to set this process in motion — except get here.
But your environment influences which you prevails.
When we grow accustomed to a limited rotation of modern environments – with our ever-present devices as a constant, placeless through-line – we can’t help but calcify into the versions of self that correspond with those environments.
Over time, you might become the you who lives mostly in your head — evaluating, anticipating, multitasking — forgetting that you have an actual human body until it complains or goes on strike.
Or the you who constantly efforts, executes, produces, and performs value-adding activity in 15-minute increments; then arrives home with not one iota of energy left to connect meaningfully with your partner.
Or the you who looks around at all the material signs of success, and in those quiet, unguarded moments, wishes they were somewhere else.
But it’s not really somewhere else, is it?
It’s someone else.
Vista Larga seeks to summon this you from the hidden shelf on which you’ve placed it.
There is a wiser, richer, more nuanced version of you that’s calling.
The you who is awake, embodied, playful, connected, and brave enough to say the true thing.
The you who does not measure time in minutes, but allows each experience to unfurl, expand, and take up the space it requires.
The you who engages in vulnerable, unhurried conversation while the glowing orb of the sun hovers above the far horizon.
The you who glances up at your partner of many years, and feels suddenly overcome by the vast terrain of everything there still is to learn and discover about each other.
