My Mom and I had a wonderful time for our abbreviated trip. In just 2 days we got to enjoy Zumba and Yoga with Andreina (so much fun!!) and visit a local bar where we danced in the streets and tasted the local liquor. We relaxed at the beautiful and serene infinity pool and swam in the ocean. The food was amazing and the wait staff serving food were professional and so very kind. Our room was gorgeous!!! I really enjoyed the hike, even though my Mom got hurt at the end. It was a wonderful adventure!! The guide shared some information about the local ecosystem. My intention was to connect with community and my Mom and share new experiences in Mexico and in the short time that I was there I felt like I was aligned with this intention. Andreina is amazing and I absolutely love her retreats. She was so supportive when my Mom was injured..

I can't wait to travel with you again in the future. I hope you two can have enjoy a longer & healthy adventure next time! I'm in touch with your mom and hope to see her again soon.

This trip to Spain with Andreina was fabulous. When Andreina plans retreats (this is my 3rd time traveling with her), she builds-in a variety of excursions and activities, as well as optional down-time for those who want it. The places we visited and the lodgings allowed for easy exploration as a group and on our own. It all was beautiful, fun, included a group of wonderful people; it was very special. ♥️

Oh my!! Andreina creates a magnificent experience. The places we visited were magical. There was a nice balance of activity and down time. She makes a space of acceptance. I was free to participate in what felt right for me. The people on our trip were lovely, I’ve made some wonderful new friends. I will travel with Andreina again definitely. I highly recommend her travel adventures !
