Relational Self-onboarding for Your Team in Transition"Just in life, not just in case.
Are you receiving expats? Or expanding your company to another city?Discover Relational Cartography: our proprietary B2B methodology that uses Poetic AI (IA BOBA) and our concept Map of Relational Presence (MRP) to turn adaptation into a daily, embodied practice.
The Hidden Cost of Displacement
Traditional expat onboarding focuses on logistics. But a lack of relational presence—the connection to one's body and new environment—leads to burnout, low productivity, and high turnover. This costs your company millions.
Our Methodology
Relational Cartography
We don't offer checklists. We offer a map. Based on Embodied Cognition (Varela) and Relational Art, we guide your collaborators through a process of active mapping of their own well-being. This is 'care of the self' as situated action, not a test.
The Map of Relational Presence (MRP): Your B2B Platform.
Our technology delivers a 'living map' of adaptation, centered on IA BOBA (our Poetic AI) that delivers daily, performative practices.
The Feltrip Ecosystem: From Digital to Human.
Relational Cartography doesn't end in the app. The Map of Relational Presence (MRP) connects your collaborators to a curated network of local partners: pedagogical consultants, realtors, therapists, and experiences that understand the nuances of adaptation. We close the loop from digital to human, ensuring a complete and secure Relational Self-onboarding.
Eating habits, local markets.
Practicing the local language with the city as your classroom.

Feltrip is a technology and well-being company focused on solving the global problem of 'displacement' for people in motion. Through its proprietary methodology, Relational Cartography, Feltrip transforms adaptation (onboarding) into a poetic, embodied, and situated practice. Founded by researcher Fernanda Paixão, our methodology is validated on two fronts: Field R&D and our B2B technology platform, the Map of Relational Presence (MRP). We are building a hybrid ecosystem that bridges the digital (IABOBA) with the physical (our partner network) to ensure a complete relational presence experience.
