RAVES FROM OUR TRAVELERS

I had such a memorable experience, one I’ll never forget. No drama. No negativity. All love and respect.

It was such a great experience and the group was very special. I had a wonderful time.

The workshops were great — so was the food.  I especially enjoyed the Kyoto hotel where we stayed.  It was well-located; we could walk many places from there.
