Work with Virginia Scheele

As the founder of GINI, I build bridges between past and present, strategy and soul. My work lives at the intersection of decolonising travel, cultural remembrance and systems transformation.

Whether you’re looking for a grounded host, a speaker who tells the truth with care, or a consultant who brings clarity to complexity I hold space with depth, warmth and integrity.

I’ve spoken and facilitated across community events, impact spaces and international programmes always centring story, power and connection.

Creating space for story, silence and soul

Hosting

Virginia hosted the intimate pre-screening of Fatherless by Bibi de Vetter in Amsterdam a documentary centred around the influence of young creatives growing up without a father.  The evening blended softness and truth-telling, guiding participants into deeper reflection and shared conversation.

Decolonising travel as collective remembrance

Speaking

At the GINI Impact Gala, I spoke about what it means to decolonise travel not just as a practice but as a way of being. I shared how memory, joy, grief and justice all move with us when we move through the world, and how travel can become a sacred act of repair.

Holding clarity in complexity

Consulting

As a consultant & projectmanager, I support purpose-driven organisations with visioning, stakeholder process design and cultural storytelling. I bring 10+ years of experience in strategy, facilitation and innovation across public and social sectors, with a deep commitment to equity and systemic repair. Clients come to me when they’re seeking grounded clarity, intersectional insight and embodied action.

Cultural remembrance

GINI's impact

Support local economies

By joining a GINI journey or experience, you support local hosts, guides and creatives. +20% of our profits are reinvested into grassroots initiatives. Your presence helps circulate wealth fairly and contributes to lasting, community-led impact, where it’s needed most and where it grows with dignity.

Slow and soulful experiences

Whether it’s a one-day experience or a longer journey, GINI moves at the pace of presence. You’re invited to connect and engage without rush. We create space for joy, reflection and genuine exchange, offering experiences that nourish you and honour the people and stories you meet along the way.

Leave a lasting impact

Every GINI experience creates ripple effects, social, cultural and economic. From hands-on contribution to conscious spending, your participation supports grounded, long-term change. Together, we shift from extractive tourism to intentional travel that uplifts, respects and stays behind when you move on.

Stories that remember

GINI experiences centre cultural remembrance. You’re welcomed not as a tourist but as a guest, to listen, witness and honour the stories that shaped a place. We travel to remember, to reconnect, and to make space for narratives too often left out, dismissed or forgotten in mainstream tourism.
