Creating meaningful connections in a disconnected world
Back to Human was founded by Britt and Zia, two friends, with a shared love for travel and meaningful connection.
After experiencing both hyper connected travel and slow, intentional journeys, we felt the difference and knew we wanted to create that experience for others.
We're not gurus or guides. We're hosts. We design the framework, hold the space, and let the journey speak for itself.
Back to Human is just getting started.
Our vision is to create intentional journeys around the world, bringing together small groups of like-minded people who want to experience life more fully. Without the constant pull of their screens.
We're building this slowly and thoughtfully, staying true to what matters most: quality, presence, and genuine connection.
Back to Human started with a simple realization: somewhere along the way, being constantly connected started to feel disconnecting.
We noticed how often moments were interrupted by screens, how conversations became shorter. And how travel, something meant to expand us, started to feel rushed and performative.
Back to Human was created as a response to that. Not as an escape from modern life, but as a way to return to it more grounded, present, and human.
We believe presence is powerful.
We believe real connection doesn't need constant documentation.
We believe travel should leave you feeling clearer, not more exhausted.
And we believe that some of the most meaningful moments happen when the phone stays in your pocket.
Back to Human is built around slowing down, sharing real experiences, and creating space for connection. With others, with the place you're in, and with yourself.
Back to Human is not a retreat, workshop, or digital detox bootcamp.
It's a shared journey.
There's no forced self-work, no rigid schedules, and no pressure to perform or "transform."
Instead, we create intentional structure and leave room for things to unfold naturally.
Technology is used mindfully, not banned. Presence is encouraged, not enforced.
Join us on a journey that brings you back to what matters most.
