Shara | Solo Traveler
“I attended Spanish Immersion combined with Yoga with Adriene. Coming off of a pretty intense work situation, I was looking forward to the trip, but a bit nervous about the potential for being “over-stimulated” or taxed from the Spanish lessons. Although we had a very packed schedule, every aspect of it was enriching, fun, and unexpectedly restorative.”
