Staring in Monterey California, get ready to embark on an adventure! Where a wellness trip meets the wild heart of nature, what can we find? Let's rejuvenate ourselves at a spa, then be mesmerized by the fish, meditate in nature, and hit the trails! Seeking those ready to embark on life's quest with an open-mind and nature loving heart. Let's embrace the journey with self-care, heart-center, curiosity, a passion for nature, and more as we begin.

Hi, Kelsey here! (she/they) We're a deep thinker, artist, aspiring musician, and beginning blogger. We're just beginning our journey as a nomad and are happy to have become a trip leader as well. We consider ourself unique, and love spreading smiles. As a nature enthusiast, deep thinker, and active individual, expect to get outside rain or shine, and do a lot of walking. We look forward to taking in the scenery whenever possible, so feel free to bring a camera to take some photos. We're a major foodie, so we plan to find some nice cafes along the way too. Expect things like crepes, cakes, tea, bagels, and sushi. We love singing and write our own songs too. Anyone like disney music? Yes? Let's sing together! I also enjoy artist like Omnia. Tina Malia, Versengold, Faun, Kokia, Nana Mizuki, Flow, Ikimono Gakari, Joshua Messick, Adrian Von Ziegler, Altima, Xandria, and Omkara to name a few. (In case you haven't guessed, we're not the best at summarizing certain things...) Also look forward to meeting Ruby (a sweet, friendly, and gentle dog), and Star (a shy, curious, and sometimes spunky adventure cat) Looking for adventurous individuals, deep thinkers, nature lovers, and fellow creatives. If you enjoy bubble tea/boba that's a plus as we may find a place with it somewhere. Also, a plus if you love crystals and yoga. Must be physically fit, good with cats and dogs, non-smokers, and okay with limited technology use. No drugs (of any kind) or alcohol on this trip please. Thank you for understanding.

Details about the accommodation: Plan to stay in multiple types of accommodation as we plan to have a bit of variety on our adventure. Expect to share a room in most cases. Each individual will have their own bed. We hope to spend at least a few nights at a spa resort type location, and at least a week at a more rustic style place. Glamping is very possible.

Trip Itinerary
1

Monterey

Day 1-6
Enjoy staying at either a resort or bed and breakfast hotel. Each day we'll enjoy food at a different local cafe, bakery, or restaurant. From creperies, to boba tea, sushi, and more! Visiting the Monterey bay aquarium is on the top of our list here. We also hope to walk around Fisherman's Wharf and look for sea lions. Expect at least 1 spa day here.

Carmel-by-the-Sea

Day 6-15
After checking in to our lodging get ready to relax and immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature. More rustic lodging is possible at this stop. While we'll spend one day exploring the town, the main focus at this stop is meditation and nature. Prepare to explore the coast and embark on the nearby trails here. Plan to take meditation breaks in some parts too. Though not a given, there also potential for yoga and an optional spa day here. One area we hope to see is pebble beach. There's also potential to explore Point Lobos State Natural Reserve.

Big Sur

Day 15-22
Enjoy even further immersion with the serenity of nature. The sound of the waves, sea breeze and nearby forests are the highlight here! As our final stop we'll relax, hike, and share some stories amidst the setting sun. Expect rustic lodging in a campground setting. Options for camping are available for those with a tent. I also have a spare tent and hammocking set up for those who are interested.
