Participants on a Rooral retreat are normally well travelled professionals with diverse personalities and interests. The common denominator is the desire to slow down and living a more connected and regenerative life.

 

Our average age of Rooralists is mid 30's to mid 40's, but we've welcomed people of all ages. When it comes to roles, we have hosted people from the whole spectrum: from CEOs and entrepreneurs, to artists and nature experts. The more diverse, the more learning & fun!

 

An important point is it's not necessary to be working on something in order to participate. Many joining us are taking time off, are retired, or just deciding what comes next in life and are looking for some inspiration.

 

Since regeneration is one of the organizing principles of Rooral, many participants are passionate about environment, deepening into local cultures and looking forward to connecting with rural wisdom.

If you join your Rooral experience from a EU country, you will need to have an EU Digital COVID Certificate issued by a member state of the European Union, or a COVID-19 certificate issued by a country with which the EU has established equivalence with the EU COVID Digital Certificate.

 

The certificate may contain at least one of the following documents attesting to the fact that a person:

• has been vaccinated against COVID-19, with full vaccination schedule, at least 14 days prior to arrival in Spain.

• a diagnostic test (sample collection) has been performed within 72 hours prior to arrival in Spain for NAAT (nucleic acid amplification tests, e.g. RT-PCR, RT-LAMP, TMA) / 48 hours for RAT (rapid antigen test), the result of which has been negative.

• has recovered from COVID-19, after the disease has passed, provided that more than 11 days have elapsed since the first positive NAAT test was performed, and shall be valid for up to 180 days thereafter.

 

If you join your Rooral experience from a country that does not issue EU Digital COVID Certificate: it is any of the supporting documents listed above, but issued by non-EU countries, in a format readable by airport health control staff and us.
