Listen, amigo, we get it… Life can be tough, and it’s all too easy to feel burnt out… That’s why next February we’re running a trip that’s all about slowing down and reconnecting. Last year, we discovered a very special place (which we’re keeping under wraps for now). For lack of a better explanation, it's one of the most healing places we’ve ever been. The energy is different here. The problem is that there’s almost nowhere to stay - except for one truly spectacular place, which we have booked out. So from February 13th, we’ll be running a week-long retreat with Elsewheria that’s all about slowing down. Breathing deeper. Living softer. Laughing fuller. This is the perfect antidote to what ails you, amigo, and I should know because I’m a bundle of nervous energy always jumping from task to task. And yet, here, in this very special place, I found a unique and special kind of peace.
I journalled deep and long under starry skies. I pondered where I am going and what I want to do with my life. I reconnected with some parts of myself that had been out of reach and, crucially… I reconnected with the wild and wonderful nature that was surrounding me. I get it, this all sounds like hippy dippy nonsense… but it’s true. So if you’re looking to spend a week somewhere very special with some like-minded folks, and you wish to experience some reconnecting exercises whilst also having plenty of wildlife interactions, this is the trip for you. Aaaaand, it’s only $1650, which, let’s be honest, is freaking cheap for what we're offering. This adventure follows directly on from our more action-packed Baja whale expedition and is a logical extension for those who want to linger in the rhythm of the Sea of Cortez - a place Jacques Cousteau once called “the aquarium of the world”. You can, of course, opt to do just this itinerary without doing the whale expedition the week before.
In case you wish to do both trips back to back, I'll personally offer you a $500 discount :) just reach out by responding to this email. In the meantime, you can also follow Elsewheria on IG for more updates: @elsewheriaadventures Hope to have you with us soon. |

Friends, adventurers, this week I want to rave about a lesser-known side of Thailand: the Mae Hong Son region. More specifically, the Mae Hong Son Motorbike Loop! You know me. You know how crazy I go for epic motorbike rides and scoot-scooting through beautiful mountain roads. This is a GOOD ONE: The Mae Hong Son Loop(Our ULTIMATE Guide) The Mae Hong Son Motorbike Loop It's common for people visiting Thailand to be familiar with Chiang Mai and Pai. If you've travelled around there, and...
