Inspirational, practical and fun! What I love about this book is not just that it provides inspiration and ideas for planning a getaway from everyday routines and stresses — but that it provides guidance for how to use that time “away” as a journey *towards* a stronger sense of yourself, as you are and as you aspire to be. The book is engaging, accessible, and easy to digest — a nice mix of gentle motivation and guidance, personal stories, practical how-tos, and beautiful photos.
