We built GenOffsite on a simple belief: breakthroughs happen when bold travel meets deep human insight.
Our driving mission: to humanize the business world, and to create spaces where colleagues connect as humans first.
Our story began in the world of high-touch travel - over 14 years designing and delivering mind-expanding experiences across 50+ countries.

Gen Offsite exists at the intersection of these worlds: logistical precision, strategic depth, and human connection. Every retreat is custom-designed. Every outcome is authentically human.
Operational Depth
From creative expeditions in the Himalayas to events in remote deserts and helicopter-access escapes, we’ve transformed extraordinary ideas into seamless realities for clients who demand the exceptional. With Gen, you don’t coordinate multiple vendors – you work with one partner who manages the entire process from idea to execution.
Facilitation & Strategic Insight
But adventure alone wasn’t enough. We’ve integrated our operational expertise with high-level strategic facilitation and executive coaching - led by senior practitioners, including the former brand strategist for Ferrari. Our retreats go beyond typical formats: structured, impactful sessions designed to align teams, clarify strategy, and build resilient cultures.
Designed for Real Teams
We specialize in working with startups, founders, investors, and fast-growing companies facing challenges like scaling pressures, remote culture, and leadership burnout. Our approach blends strategic alignment work with embodied practices – such as breathwork, somatics, and nervous system resets – to restore clarity, creativity, and human connection.
Curiosity took me around the world — and turned into a career designing unique, high-impact travel experiences for over 14 years. Starting as a global guide, I built several travel companies (including https://gentravel.pro/en/), produced wild expeditions, and delivered offsites for brands and teams who think big. My network spans local partners, filmmakers, and fixers in almost every corner of the planet. Wherever a team needs clarity or a founder needs a reset, I’ve made it happen.
Now based in Portugal, I help leaders and investors unlock insight through meaningful journeys — drawing from my experience bridging cultures, building trust, and making the impossible work. Business meets adventure. Results meet real life. Let’s create your next game-changing journey.

Vlad Bakaliar
Vlad brings over two decades of experience at the intersection of business, leadership, and inner transformation. With a 10-year background in corporate world working in a global group of companies Sirap Gema (Italy), followed by 8 years in a fast-growing tech startup Uphance, he’s no stranger to high-stakes decision-making, team dynamics, and the pressures of scale.
His transition into purpose-driven leadership led him to spend the past 2 years guiding nonprofit initiatives most notably as Head of the Mental Health Project at OneUkraine, where he developed programs for psychological resilience in times of crisis.
Throughout this arc, Vlad has collaborated with some of the most respected minds in the mental health and leadership space, including Esther Perel, Rick Doblin, and Dr. James Gordon. He has also trained with leading psychedelic researchers featured in How to Change Your Mind, deepening his capacity to hold complex, transformational spaces for leaders and teams.
He co-founded Compassion Retreat in Tulum, where he curates immersive experiences that blend somatic work, strategic alignment, and altered states for expanded insight. His approach is deeply holistic working across body, mind, and consciousness to support authentic, integrated leadership.
Tasha Yadrentseva
Tasha moves at the intersection of clarity and aliveness — where business direction meets inner truth. With 10+ years in strategy consulting for brands like Ferrari, Fendi, Volvo, and Leroy Merlin, she knows how to ask sharp questions and hold complex systems. Her true strength lies in bridging worlds: strategic clarity with embodied awareness, cognitive precision with emotional depth. She’s guided over 1,500 people through breathwork and led dozens of strategic sessions for teams and founders navigating growth, tension, and reinvention. Her method blends systems thinking, vertical leadership, and applied neurophysiology — so insights aren’t just understood, but felt. As co-author of Breathe with Stanford, she worked alongside a Stanford PhD professor to turn academic research on breath, focus, and regulation into grounded, transformative practice. A lifelong nomad, she lives between cities and mountains, clarity and chaos. She’s also the founder of La Conexión — an ethical jewelry brand built on the same principle she brings to teams: integration of opposites, freedom with form, beauty with truth. At Gen Offsite, Tasha designs and facilitates strategic retreats that leave no part of you behind — creating the kind of clarity that’s felt in the body, and from there, build things that actually last.
