This trip was so amazing!!! Our retreat leader Ayla from Bend Studio, thought of every detail! We had beautifully prepared meals with fresh, local ingredients, thoughtful and safe drivers for the duration of our trip and incredible experiences. This was one of the best trips of my life!!! I have a hard time describing it in words, but I know that everyone that was on our retreat feels the same. Ayla rocked it all, what a SuperStar!!
