“Every woman deserves to treat herself to a an adventure. I work full-time and raise three children; I wanted something where I could be me, and just me. I signed up for Costa Rica and spent an amazing week seeing a beautiful country, eating delicious food, and spending time with awesome women. The surfing instructors were supportive and positive, and the yoga classes connected me to peace and relaxation. For the first time at 43m, I learned that I love to play in the ocean. It was an experience I can’t explain, but I recommend it to everyone; thank you, Colleen and Pia!”

Because of the unforeseen and unprecedented circumstances of the outbreak, this policy supersedes earlier policies.
