Favourite Quote:
A comfort zone is a beautiful place but nothing ever grows there.
What brought you to this retreat?
In search for a trip to take alone, this itinerary called to me as the perfect balance between cultural immersion and relaxation. And after the first emails with Kathy and Coco, I was convinced that this was where I needed to go!
What is your favourite memory?
The first night, where 10 people who had never met before were chatting like old friends. The farewell dinner with amazing music and dancing!
What did you bring home with you?
The importance of disconnecting and living in the moment, and a renewed faith in my own ability to thrive in an unknown situation on my own.
If you were given 1-2 lines to describe your life philosophy, what would that be?
Make the most out of every day.
Favourite Yoga Pose:
Legs up the wall/viparita karani....after practicing this with Eduardo, I've made a point to practice this routinely at home and I swear it cures all of my ailments!
