ADVENTURE TO TRANSFORMATION
A lucky day hunting with the Hadza Tribe, one of the last hunter-gather tribes in Africa with approximately 1300 members. Join me as we follow the Hadza on an early morning food drive, a daily Hadzabe routine given they have no domesticated livestock nor do they grow their own food.
WHY JOURNEY WITH ME?
All my group travel experiences are more than just a change of scenery, that's why they are called "journeys"—they are opportunities for transformation. When you journey with me, you open the door for yourself to mentally, emotionally and physically revolutionize your connection to self, other, and the planet.
Free from the constraints of everyday life, we have the unique chance while we journey to really think about and feel who we are and what our potential is–all while discovering an incredible landscape. As we step out of our comfort zones (no-growth zones), we create a space to rewrite the stories we have created about ourselves, discover our power, and design the lives of our dreams.
Push past the limits of what you think is your capacity and discover hidden power within yourself as you shift from storyteller to protagonist in an inspiring adventure. Unearth newfound strength and courage as you create the life of your wildest dreams. When we dare take that leap, anything becomes possible!
ARE YOU . . .
-
Tired of living on "someday island," telling yourself you'd love more adventure in your life someday?
-
Aspiring to get in touch with your inner self and expand?
-
Yearning to go to that next level of experiencing your power?
-
Tired of telling yourself you can't before you discover you can?
-
In love with the outdoors, or want to love the outdoors, but aren't sure where to start ?
-
Making excuses for yourself because you think you're "old?" (I'll be 57 on the 2023 Tanzania journey!)
-
Waiting for a breakthrough? Don't wait any longer!
Though not all, most of my journeys include a physically challenging experience. Expanding what we think to be the capacity of our physical bodies can trigger cognitive and emotional expansion beyond our dreams.
Whether you seek the thrill of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and the awe of a Tanzania safari, the solace of the majestic beauty of the Sacred Valley in Peru, want to explore the Mayan Ruins in Tikal, Guatemala, or even the extreme trek around Mount Rainier in Washington, there's a journey for you. Not interested yet? What about hiking in Europe amid wine-tasting adventures, or chilling in Thailand while you explore sacred temples and visit remarkable spas? Regardless of your choice, you are sure to expand.
Come decompress, connect, and ascend with me through national or international travel excursions! I have led over 100 groups through intense journeys in Guatemala, Tanzania, Europe, India, Thailand, Peru, and more. These journeys are not just physical journeys, but also spiritual and mental journeys. You will learn about YOURSELF, OTHERS, AND THE PLANET in unexpected and beautiful ways.

Step into your power and come journey with me
WEEK 1
Summit the famous Mount Kilimanjaro -
the highest free-standing mountain in the world!
Is it a technical climb and do I need gear?
-
NO, it's not technical! Summiting Mount Kilimanjaro is more like a long, multi-day hike.
-
You can rent all gear if you'd like, however, most people bring the basics. When you set up your discovery call I'll walk you through that.
What kind of shape do I need to be in to summit?
-
Average to above average to get to base camp.
-
To summit you need to be in above-average shape. People of all shapes and sizes summit, though. I can guide you on what you need to do to prepare, it's a lot simpler than you might think but it does take dedication.
-
Do I have to summit? NO! You can hike with the group the first 5 days through amazing terrain and climate zones and then wait for us at base camp. Summiting occurs from about 10 pm - 8am.
Are there health restrictions to summit?
-
Yes. People with diabetes or heart disease should not climb.
-
Always check with your doctor to determine if you have any health restrictions before climbing.
-
As your journey guide, I do not have medical training nor do the guides beyond basic first aid.

Why are most of the pictures of me, Luciana? Because I was lame and pre-CoVid failed to digitize the permission forms to use people's pictures who have journeyed with me.
