      I am sitting with a massive smile a gratitude as I write this review. I have never been on a trip that made me feel so filled up and proud of myself. Everyone was so encouraging, supportive and the atmosphere that was created by NUSHU was absolutely magical and unique. The accommodations were great and the food was so fresh, healthy and every meal ended in a conversation begging for for the recipes. The surf instructors pushed me out of the comfort zone while making me feel so secure...my wins were their wins and the wisdoms they whispered will be with me for a lifetime. NUSHU made all the travel seamless and there were fun surprises everyday. As always, the most important aspect is how you feel.... and looking back now, I can tell you I feel amazing; I made lifetime friends and I will not hesitate to travel with NUSHU again.

      This trip exceeded all expectations! NUSHU magic at its finest through soulful connection with strangers who are now sisters, adventurously pushing one's limits to deepen the connection to self and others and pure JOY through laughter and self-nourishment. I would do it again in an instant and can't wait to see what NUSHU offers next.

      Absolutely perfect balance of surfing, yoga, and good conversations. The food was so nourishing and the women so inspiring. I’d go back tomorrow if I could!

      I had a great time at the NUSHU retreat. It really helped me relax and reset. Vanessa and her team along with all of the women that attended were so welcoming and we all connected so deeply.
