Mahj & Mosey is a new mahjong retreat series built for anyone who loves a great game and an even better trip. We're a mother-daughter duo that loves to travel and explore new places, with mahjong sprinkled throughout. No intense tournaments; just good company, great places, and carefree games along the way.
What Sets Our Retreats Apart
01 / Sprinkle of MAhjong within a great trip
We aim to create trips that feel unhurried & thoughtful with beautiful stays, delicious food, and time to explore the destination. Mahjong is planned into the day, but it’s not the whole day.
02 / Friendly competition & carefree games
We love that Mahjong creates a space to connect and be social. You won’t see intense tournaments or super competitive games. You’re on vacation and here to escape the other pressures of life, not add more pressure.
03 / Everyone is welcome
Mahjong is a game that can be a great equalizer across ages, genders, and personalities. We love that it brings people together! Come to our retreats with your Mahjong group, parent, partner, or solo; we have a spot for everyone.

Anna lives in Naples, FL, where she and her husband relocated after raising three children. Her interest in mahjong was piqued when she discovered her great aunt's set, but she didn't learn to play until moving to Florida about five years ago. Fast forward to today and she's playing up to three times a week and teaching friends along the way! When she's not at the mahjong table, you'll find her on the golf course, traveling, or spending time with family and friends.
Emily lives in Chicago with her dog, Josie, and near her brother and sister (and SIL!). She has always been a lover of games, and once Anna taught her mahjong a few years ago, she was hooked! This past summer she started teaching and leading leagues at Lily Pad Mahjong Parlor, which has only deepened her love of the game and the community around it. You can find her in the Cubs bleachers, binging Bravo shows, or planning her next trip!
We wanted to create curated trips for others who love Mahjong but also want to explore the beautiful destinations we travel to, and so Mahj & Mosey was born.
