Travel safe, smart, and light.
Keeping Documents Safe
Keep your passport, cash and debit / credit cards in your possession at all times. Usually a small wallet will suffice but in some countries keeping them safe means wearing a money belt under your clothing and we’ll let you know when we recommend that. Photocopy both sides of your credit cards and the face page of your passport and bring them with you, or download them to your cell phone to be paper free. If they are lost or stolen you have both the phone number to call and the number of your card to cancel.
Passport Photos
We recommend carrying 2 passport photos with you when traveling abroad to save time and energy should your passport need to be replaced.
Cash
A debit card is a better solution than carrying large amounts of cash. ATM machines are almost everywhere and you can get usable amounts out at a time and often at better rates than exchanging dollars. Many credit cards no longer have international exchange fees. Check with your financial institution before you travel.
Travel Light
If you can’t lift your duffle bag up a flight of steps then you’ve over-packed and it’s time to sit down and start culling! Too much stuff can spoil a vacation – accounting for it, organizing it, trying to find something important when you need it. It’s great to be able to spend more time relaxing on your vacation versus re-packing. We encourage you to bring only what’s on the “What to Bring” list and any other must have items for comfort and/or for medical requirements.
Essentials
Facial mask(s), hand sanitizer and wipes are essential these days. Pack your carry-on day pack for flights assuming that your bag may go missing – then if it does, you’ll have the essentials. The obvious things are cash and credit card, medications, a change of clothing, phone, toiletries, and a hoodie. A less obvious item is a swimsuit which is hard to shop for on the road. If you’ll be hiking in the first few days, consider wearing your hiking boots on the plane or tie them to your carry on. If you bring one, we suggest you carry your camera in your day pack and leave the camera bag at home as this reduces risk of it being lost or stolen.

Testimonials
… from our Adventure Travelers!
“As I fall back in my day-to-day, it will give me satisfaction just knowing that somewhere on this spinning planet there is a marvelous guide leading a group of women to a beautiful place – and it will make their hearts soar! The sights that I have seen on these trips are surpassed only by the wonderful spirits surrounding them.”
“Your trips give me the opportunity to laugh like a little girl! Swimming in Emerald Lake, lying on a glacier, laughing till my sides hurt – these are the things I will remember always.”
“My word for this trip was trust. We trusted one another with our challenges and our hearts. From the full moon in Canyon de Chelly to sloshing up the Narrows – I feel so lucky to be part of this great cosmic experience!”
“Your trips are top notch adventures that are all about getting in touch with the many facets of Nature’s splendor while doing something special for one’s self. We’ve camped really comfortably in Southwest canyons and hiked, biked and ridden horses and jeeps. Every day is a new activity which makes for a great vacation.”
“Words cannot begin to describe what the last ten days have been for me. The energy and expertise you put into every aspect of the trip allowed me to let go and just be. The camaraderie of the women, the chance NOT to be in charge while at the same time completely trusting the hands of whom I write, all while laughing till my sides burst – well my soul is FULL!”
