Connected Living™ —
A World You Can Step Into
Our protected Connected Living™ living model grew from a very personal desire. We founders wanted to create something we ourselves were missing: a way of living internationally that feels grounded, meaningful, and easy to return to.
It was shaped for seasoned women who value depth, meaningful conversations, and quality in how they live — women who appreciate care and ease, and who are curious about community and experiencing life in another country in a way that feels real.
Not Travel, Not a Retreat—A Movement of Connection
The model has grown over the past years through research and hundreds of conversations with women in what we call quarter three — a stage of life marked by transition, independence, and a renewed focus on what truly matters.
What emerged was a desire not only to experience places, but to relate to them differently — to be present, to engage with awareness, and to be part of a community.
So we created homebases across countries — not as isolated properties, but as connected communities to return to. You can join for different lengths of time, moving between locations while remaining part of the same way of living.
Access to life with La Joie unfolds through different depths of living.

Across countries and time-defined periods, each homebase unfolds differently.
Live Like a Local in a Women-Centered Community
From the moment you arrive, everything is thoughtfully arranged for you to settle smoothly into your new home. The rhythm is guided by our brand values — they are the heart of every period:
● Authentic — Real life, real culture, real connection. All about living fully in beautiful homes, sharing everyday rhythms, and engaging with local communities in meaningful ways.
● Inclusive — Women with very different lives, from all continents, sharing the same space — and it comes together easily.
● Joyful — Joy is not decoration, it’s fuel. It shows up in daily Aperos, laughter around the table, and the freedom of shaping your own chapter with like- hearted women.
● Nourishing — good energy, shaped by the women, and reflected in the quality of the homes, the food, and the way everyday life is lived.
And at the heart of it all: giving back. Every resident contributes in some way — whether supporting local producers and artisans, social causes, environmental initiatives, or animal welfare. This is what makes La Joie Homebase® truly unique: living with meaning, not just staying.

A Way to Live That Has Been Missing
Women arrive from very different places in life — after long careers, after divorce or loss, in moments of change, or simply continuing a life that’s already full.
What they find is a way of living that simply works — in how it feels, how it connects, and how it’s been put together.
