YOUR SUPPORT TEAM
Plaka Strength is run by the team behind parent company, More Life Adventures. Founded by Stella Kamba, a Greek native who grew up on Crete, the MLA team can ensure your retreat will run smoothly, and you and your guests will get the best possible experience in Stella’s hometown.
More Life Adventures is a team of passionate women, headquartered in London but not in any physical way since the team normally works remotely from all corners of the world, embodying the values of: Move, Connect, Explore.
They believe that life is about exploration and growth. To encourage people to step out of their comfort zones and into a world of new experiences, where they can learn about themselves, get unstuck, and embrace change.
We’ve all felt the burden of burn out, living our lives on autopilot, and deprioritising our mental, physical and spiritual wellbeing to disastrous results. We created MLA out of a need to get back to really living our lives, and the experiences we offer are a reflection of that continuous growth and learning.
