I was impressed with how many wonderful resources were shared and appreciated the community that was created in such a short time. Erica has a unique knack for making people feel comfortable and is a natural born leader.

Logistics are one thing, and your guidance in that manner was great, too - but the short exercises you asked us to participate in to determine the whys of embarking on a travel-based adventure really tweaked my approach to planning and pondering on the whats/hows/whens. I think it'll make all the difference.

-April

I really enjoyed your class and think everyone learned a lot ! I liked it the most when you shared personal stories and plan to use your workbook and planning strategy for the future travel.

-Sasha

I loved that we talked a lot about reasons for taking a trip and what we hope to gain from it - that helped me gain focus about trips I'm planning and make the whole process feel clearer and less intimidating. I loved it - thank you so much!
