Hello, September, we’ve been expecting you to paint our autumn with your incredible colour palette! Quick, grab your backpack, there is no time to explain! We are heading towards Zabola Estate, Mikes Castle, in the heart of breathtaking and already notorious Transylvania and we are looking not for Dracula, but for relaxation, somewhere close to the middle of...
An innocent delight for happy mornings
Sometimes or often, we adults are as curious as children; we are curious to find out new ways to vary, to make small changes, to diversify our lives, activities, habits, routine. We like being curious, as this is how we learn new things every day of our lives. We are dynamic, innately gifted with the desire to be...
Lost in daydreaming
Each weekend is looked forward to with anticipation worldwide. Whether we want to rest or conduct fun activities, the weekend days give us the opportunity to disconnect and recreate. The human mind is dynamic, and a little rest to relax it is welcomed. Our diversity makes us to be inclined towards various fields, some artistic, some technological, and...
A land of tradition and customs
Autumn – when God decided to paint the leaves of trees in gold and copper colours to delight both soul and eyes, and the sunsets in violent violet combined with intense orange and burned pink timidly coming upon the earthlings every evening. The autumn’s delight is not only visual, but also sensorial, especially felt by our taste buds....
We and Nature
Your first encounter with Nature. The first encounter of your children with Nature. Do you remember them? How would you describe them? What were your feelings in those moments? Which of Nature’s forms impressed you the most? Nature surrounds us, embraces us with her warm arms, and pleasantly envelops us wherever we are. It gives us the chance...

The sea is calling us to her, even in autumn

One of the many advantages of iELM location is that we are close to both the much-adored mountain and the much-beloved sea. Whenever we feel the need for relaxation...
Family ties
We come into this world all alone, but we are surrounded by people who give us unconditional love from the very first suave musical tunes of life. We feel this immense love because, through it, we grow, we nurture spiritually, our emotions intensify, our mind expands, and we become unique beings through love. Often when we come into...
Good morning, ma’am chia pudding!
Dawn is waking us up slowly and gradually, mildly bringing us back fom the land of reverie to a very real and beautiful morning. With heavy eyelids and still dreaming, we are moving slowly towards the kitchen. Coffee lovers can feel already the inviting aroma of freshly ground coffee, tea lovers enjoy every moment of expectation of a...
Fairy tales and faeries in childhood
Today we were thinking of childhood. So simple. In actual fact we think it every day. It is our job! At iELM we return recurrently to the early years seeking the candor, the imagination and the joy we used to live constantly and we try to see/understand what generated all those wonderful feelings, what brought us cheerfulness and...
