Get ready to restore and explore with a week of quietude, reflection and beautiful surroundings. Daily yoga, meditation, and much more are in store for you on this 7 night 6 day retreat.

Join Rachel & Pierce in beautiful Cambodia, for their 3rd retreat in the town of Kampot at Les Manguiers riverside resort.

Kampot is a small fishing and tourist town in the south of Cambodia. You'll enjoy comfortable bungalows, fresh food, and many mango smoothies throughout the week. 

Pierce's knowledge from 6 previous trips here will give you valuable insight into the places, experiences, and spirit of the people.

There are many options for those looking to stay active, and many options for those that want to keep things low key. We like doing both and will point you in the right direction and find your retreat balance.

Because you deserve to spend a tropical week far away from home to focus on regenerating and cultivating more of YOU. This isn't just another vacation, this is an experience that will imprint lasting effects. The trip is about the journey, and how you see yourself and the world after.

Travel enlightens humanity 

Yoga makes you whole again 

These two things (plus an endless supply of exotic fresh fruit,, sunny days and good people) help change us. And when you see the world, experience other cultures, and truly experience yourself, you can bring that back home with you.

Here is some information to prepare for the trip: 

• We encourage you to do some traveling either before or after this trip to explore and experience other parts of SE Asia. Past attendees have used this trip to get their bearings in a new environment and go on to travel more after. Others scheduled some travel before/after. If we can help support you in deciding and planning an extension to this retreat, please reach out.

• Cambodia uses both US dollars and Riel as local currency, so feel free to bring cash with you to use for expenses while there. Make sure they are crisp bills and not torn or wrinkled. ATM’s dispense US dollars but charge a processing fee. Your bank may also charge a fee on top of this, but not all do, so check with your bank. Many places do not take credit cards, so cash will be your friend. The exchange rate for Riel to USD is around 4,000 Riel to $1.00. Make sure to notify your bank(s) and credit card(s) of the countries you plan to travel to in advance of your trip. 

• When entering Cambodia (or any of the surrounding countries) mark “tourism” as your purpose of entry.

• If you are coming straight from the airport in Phnom Penh (on the edge of town) to Kampot on Sunday March 3rd, we can arrange a taxi pickup for you. It costs between $40-$50 one way for a car and takes approximately 3 hours. If you will be in Phnom Penh city we can arrange a bus ticket for you (or taxi from your hotel/guesthouse) or you can buy yourself. It is very easy to plan transport once you are there as well. We recommend Giant Ibis, as they are a medium sized bus, stop at a halfway point in the trip for bathroom and snacks and has wifi on board. The trip is around 4 hours and costs $10  - http://giantibis.com/

• The weather is warm, between 70’s and 90’s and it will be the dry season; most likely it will not rain during that time. All accommodations are fan only rooms, and the temperature gets cool in the evening to make sleeping comfortable.

• Cambodians and the language are called Khmer (pronounced - “Ka-My”) - Read more about Cambodia’s history here: http://bit.ly/2qVk0J6

• Cambodia is mainly a Buddhist country but you will see some Muslim villages and sparing Christianity. Read more about Cambodia's religious history here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Cambodia
