"This was a much needed escape from the last 18 months of dealing with the pandemic! We were truly relaxed and at several moments, forgot about our worries, anxieties and anything that might have been distracting to our every day lives. We absolutely loved the ambiance and easy nature of the trip. We had a wonderful time with Amber and Lance and the yoga techniques were beyond helpful."
