Your Tuscany, Italy and Bali Experts

We are Rob Friedman and Stacey Mattraw, owners of Sojourn Ventures. We offer Italy and Bali vacation packages to non-profit organizations to aid their fundraising efforts. For the past 25 years, we have traveled extensively throughout Europe and Asia with an emphasis on Italy and Bali. We own several of the properties listed on this site, and serve as booking agents for the others you’ll find here. We have deep and lasting relationships with people in both Italy and Bali that allow us to offer our guests sojourns beyond the normal tourist experience. We take our guests’ needs and desires very much to heart, and receive great satisfaction from providing them with meaningful stays, full of discovery and adventure. We look forward to providing you with your own Bali or Italy adventure! Rob and Stacey

✨ Your donors really get to stay here. ✨

When we show you a Sojourn accommodation, it’s not simply representative of the destination. These are the actual properties available to your donors.

From charming homes in historic towns to private villas, boutique retreats, and beautiful apartments around the world, every accommodation is personally vetted and thoughtfully selected with the guest experience in mind.

Because when a donor bids on an unforgettable trip, they should feel excited and confident about what they’re getting.

Real properties. Personally vetted. Unforgettable stays.
That’s the Sojourn difference.

What a weekend in Sonoma! 🍷✨

We were proud to be Silver Sponsors of BAS ’26, where we had the chance to host a happy hour, connect with longtime partners, and make plenty of new friends across the fundraising and auction industry.

We were also thrilled to donate our Under the Tuscan Sun for 8 experience to the auction benefiting the Kathy Kingston Benefit Auction Education Fund, won by Chad Chance, and give away an Italy or Bali Escape for 2, with Lynne Zink taking home the trip!

We’re grateful to NAA - National Auction Association and for the conversations, connections, and community that made BAS ’26 so special. Already looking forward to the next one! 🥂
