If you're on the fence about joining one of Pixie's retreats, just do it!! A week away in the hidden paradise of El Tunco was the absolute best gift I could ever give myself, and I'm so, so happy I did. Our week together was exhilarating and introspective by equal measure. Pixie and Natalie are a stellar duo that pulled off a seamless itinerary that both challenged us and softened us. I felt safe and cared for at every step of the way--by our facilitators, by the lovely and attentive staff at Balance, by our guides, and by each and every person who also decided to join SSS. I especially appreciated Pixie's genuine connection to the community of El Tunco; she shares family-level relationships with our local guides, surf instructors, drivers, and friends, all of whom quickly became our buddies, too. A feeling of friendship and warmth was palpable all week long, amongst our group and amongst the community who welcomed us to their land.
I'll miss the ripe and juicy mangoes falling straight from the trees and onto my lap, but I'll miss our roaring laughs even more. Thank you, Pixie and Natalie, for sharing the magic of El Salvador and for an experience I won't soon forget.
