What If You Can…

What if you can…

A nature based community for curious people to explore life, purpose, creativity, and the world one “what if” at a time. Every gathering starts with one open question: “What if you can…?”
We meet in parks, trails, and local spaces sometimes with small businesses, sometimes just in nature to talk, reflect, and connect.
I created What If You Can…
A community that meets in nature to ask meaningful questions about life, purpose, creativity, climate, work, dreams anything that helps us grow.

Each event is a new topic, like a book club for curious humans. Sometimes we collaborate with a local café or business (matcha tastings, natural skincare workshops, yoga, creative talks). Sometimes we simply meet on the trail to share ideas under the sky.

If you love exploring possibilities, you belong here. No expertise needed. Just bring your curiosity.

Our mission is to create warm, in-person spaces where people can connect through curiosity, nature, and meaningful conversations.
Through simple prompts like “What if you can…?”, we explore ideas about life, creativity, sustainability, purpose, and community.
We collaborate with local businesses, nature spaces, and creative makers to create inspiring experiences that support personal growth and help our community imagine what’s possible.

We imagine a world where people feel supported to explore new paths whether that means building a business, discovering nature, learning new skills, or finding purpose.
Our long-term vision is to grow into a community that collaborates with cafés, wellness studios, farms, makers, and nature-based organizations to host events that inspire creativity, connection, and change.
About Me — Nuray Krein
I grew up on a farm in Eastern Turkey with 11 siblings a home full of chaos, simplicity, and love. I lost my parents to cancer at a young age, and life taught me early how to be strong, adaptable, and hopeful.

In 2018, I moved to the United States as part of a cultural exchange program to learn English. I worked, studied, struggled, and eventually earned my Bachelor’s degree in California Along the way, I met my husband, fell in love, and built a life in the Bay Area.

I’ve spent months solo hiking and camping across New Zealand, Australia, and the U.S. Being in nature shaped who I am it grounded me, healed me, and reminded me that life always gives space for new beginnings.

Everything in my life brought me back to one question:

What if you can?
What if you can change your life?
What if you can dream bigger?
What if you can reinvent yourself?
What if you can create something meaningful?

This community is my way of giving those questions to others.

Who
we are

🌿Who We Are

What If You Can… is a nature inspired, heart-centered community built for curious, open minded people who want to explore ideas, reconnect with themselves, and grow alongside others.

This community began with one simple question that changed my life:

What if you can?
What if you can heal?
What if you can start over?
What if you can build something new?
What if you can reconnect with nature and with yourself?

I’m Nuray, the founder of What If You Can…. I grew up in a farm village in eastern Turkey with 11 siblings, lost my parents at a young age from cancer, moved to the U.S. in 2018 through a cultural exchange program, learned English, graduated with a Business degree in California, married and spent months solo hiking in New Zealand and Australia.

Every chapter of my life taught me that growth happens when we stay curious, when we ask questions, and when we connect deeply with people and nature.

This community exists to create that space.
