Into the Wild is a chance to take a moment for you. To dive deep into your wild woman self. To rediscover the wonder and beauty of both earth’s nature and YOUR nature. To gain the experience of seeing other cultures and other humans living life differently than you do.
Welcome to Thailand! This country is on so many people’s bucket lists- and for good reason. It’s beautiful, lively, and flavorful. Come unite in stunning Thailand, enjoy the wild earth, and join me as we take in the beauty and embark on adventures throughout the cities and beaches of Thailand!
