GUATEMALA

Beauty Field Trip “Guatemala”

Antigua & Lake Atitlán

8 Days/ 7 Nights

OCTOBER 8-15 2023

Join us on an incredible journey of self-discovery and cultural immersion as we explore the vibrant colors and rich beauty of Guatemala. Our expertly curated Beauty Field Trip will take us on a journey symbolizing the vibrant hues of Guatemalan culture - from earthy cacao and coffee browns to lush jungle greens and enchanting jacaranda purples.

Through our four key themes of Craft & Textile, Ingredients & Flavors, Spiritual Wellness, and Indigenous Healing, we'll learn about the importance of Guatemalan beauty, dress, food, and culture. Our mantra for this journey is "Vitality", and we'll explore the essence of this concept not only in Guatemalan beauty but in our own lives as well.

Mark your calendars for October 8-15, 2023, and join us on this incredible journey of self-discovery and cultural immersion.

Our Beauty Journey Mantra is: “Vitality.”

In our modern lives, we often lose touch with the vital elements that define us as human beings - disconnecting from nature, losing practical skills, and falling out of sync with natural patterns. Our beauty field trip to Guatemala seeks to inspire you to reconnect with these vital elements and regain the beauty of your existence.

Join us on this unforgettable journey of self-discovery, and let the vibrant vitality of Guatemala guide us towards what is truly essential in our lives. Together, we'll learn, grow, and embrace the beauty of life on this once-in-a-lifetime beauty field trip to Guatemala.
