EAGLE EYE 2 | ICELAND | 23-26 AUG 2024

The stunning landscape of Iceland has captivated many, and we’ve had the pleasure of exploring its wonders with you. After our first Eagle Eye GrowthCamp edition last July, which was a last-minute adventure to the volcanic eruption site, we are thrilled to reflect on the incredible experience we shared.

Our recent 3-night/4-day retreat was a memorable journey through Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes. From majestic waterfalls and glaciers to volcanic terrains and picturesque coastlines, we immersed ourselves in the beauty of this otherworldly land. Under the expert guidance of our luminary, Daskalo, participants not only enjoyed a tour of these iconic sights but also mastered the art of drone piloting.

The adventure included capturing stunning footage of the eruption at Litli-Hrútur and exploring Iceland’s natural wonders from unique aerial perspectives. The footage and memories created were truly unforgettable.

While this retreat has concluded, we invite you to explore our upcoming events, where you can experience similar adventures and growth opportunities. If you’re interested in learning drone piloting or discovering new landscapes, keep an eye on our future retreats and workshops. Our goal remains to help you learn, grow, and soar, no matter where your journey takes you.

Stay tuned for new chances to explore, create, and capture unforgettable moments with us!
