Serenbe, Georgia is a biophilic wellness community 30 minutes outside of Atlanta set on 1,000 acres – 70% of which is preserved for green space with nature at top of mind. Residents are looking for purpose in how a town is built while adapting and prioritizing its surroundings.

Vanessa Guthrie, after six years as head of originals for Snap and building Snapchat’s original programming from the ground up, relocated to Serenbe. “As the saying goes, I love NY. The wonder of the city never leaves you, but we discovered a sixth borough in Serenbe – 750 miles south. Here, skyscrapers are pine trees, subway maps are trails and museums are art exhibits in the woods. The only thing left to nail is the bacon, egg and cheese,” she shares.
