Dominica is known as the nature isle of the Caribbean, known for its unspoiled beauty; mountainous terrain with lush rainforests, waterfalls, 365 rivers and geothermal hot springs. It is my second home, the place my grandparents were born and I’m so excited to take you there!
INCLUDING
Unwind on a 7 night retreat in the East of the Caribbean. Immerse yourself in nature through daily healing practices and excursions.

Reintroducing another way of living through deep presence and devotion.
