Join MYA for a wondrous adventure to Croatia! We’ll breathe in stunning landscapes, play in the water, hike, soak in island vibes, yogify in the perfect outdoor climate, and eat delicious fresh farm to table vegetarian food.

We’ll begin in the historic city of Dubrovnik with medieval architecture and massive stone walls, the perfect coastal setting. Adventurers will stroll tiny streets, enjoy cafes & bars, and hike to outstanding views. Optional is a ferry to a nearby island to take the trail that winds around and swim in the salt bay.

Adventurers will have two apartments moments away from the beach, a 15 minute walk from the old city, and close to an amazing hike with stunning perspectives on the city. Both apartments have balconies and views of the Adriatic Sea. We’ll have four bedrooms and four bathrooms with queen and twin beds. We’re only spending one night so we’ll be taking in as much goodness as we can.

Our next stop is the gorgeous island of Korcula. The old town is divine for strolling & sightseeing and grabbing up a gelato! It is island time; we’ll take things slow and easy. Adventurers will have a delicious homemade meal in town at a local restaurant that specializes in what is fresh for the day. This is a meal that will be covered by adventurers as some may want to partake in the meats :)

Our stay for three nights is across from the harbor with beautiful views, balconies, and lots of areas to relax in. We'll have quaint rooms with two queen beds each and two sofa beds (they’re really cozy). The breakfast is delicious!

There is a dedicated space for our outdoor yoga practice with mats readily available. Adventurers will have an opportunity to take a kayak tour, highly recommended but optional.

Our second island to explore is resplendent Hvar for a two night stay, the Mediterranean dream with rustic cobblestone streets and pristine turquoise waters. Adventurers will stay in the city center on the harbor with views of the water and St. Stephen's Square with the City Fortress visible on the hillside.

We’ll have two nice apartments close by each other, one with a balcony area. Lovely beaches are just a five minute walk away as well as many historic gems. Please know that there are three stories of stairs to climb, pack light!

There are serious slices of heaven not far from the harbor, quiet coves and hiking trails. Lavender fields, vineyards, olive groves, and small villages will greet us if we travel out from the city.

On Tuesday, we’ll ferry back to Dubrovnik for our last evening together. For this stay, adventurers will have three apartments to spread out in, all with two beds, a living room, kitchen, and bathroom. There’s a seasonal swimming pool as well. We’ll be a short distance from the old town, close to Minceta Tower (King’s Landing for all of the Game of Thrones fans), Onofrio’s Fountain, and the Franciscan Monastery.

Don’t miss out on a fabulous adventure to Croatia! MYA will offer up four vegetarian dinners and all breakfasts, a daily yoga practice (perhaps a second round in the evening), ferry transports from Dubrovnik to Korcula to Hvar and back again, and lots of good vibes & positive energy.

Cost $2400 twin/sofa bed; $2800 solo queen (sold out); $4200 shared queen (sold out)

MYA will be exploring Norway at the perfect time to get in some city vibes, spa bliss Scandinavian style, catching the lights dancing across the skies, and cross-country skiing on beautifully groomed trails (or snowshoeing). We’ll have accommodations in Oslo and further afield to take in the countryside, enjoy having a vegetarian cook, MJ, whipping up delicious meals, and of course daily yoga with Holly. Crossing our fingers for late March snow!

Our first three eves will be spent in a luxury apartment in the embassy district in the heart of Frogner; beautiful placement to explore the city of Oslo. Large windows bring in lots of light into the apartment and the floor heating in all rooms will keep us warm during the chillier days.

Adventurers will have plenty of relaxation space with two lovely living rooms, two fireplaces, two balconies, 2.5 bathrooms, three bedrooms and one office (or small bedroom). The apartment is in a well-kept traditional building from 1910 yet fully modernized; the height and ornamentations of the ceilings pay tribute to the original style of the apartment.

MJ will make full use of the modern, fully equipped kitchen (including a built-in coffee machine). In a short walk we can find restaurants, local food shops (cheese!), the famous Vigeland Park with over 200 sculptures, and public transportation. Within 15-20 minutes walk you reach the castle and the main street Karl Johan. The bus will bring us to the center of Oslo in few minutes.

So much to do in our three eves in the city! We will hit the Oslo Fjord Sauna for sure and decide if we’d like to partake in the Thief Spa or Salt Spa right in the city. Or, we may decide to hop a train for an hour to The Well spa experience (not included in price: $50-$60 plus price of hr long trainride) with 11 different pools, 15 different saunas and steam baths, waterfalls, Japanese bathhouse with onsen, oriental hamam, and rhassoul.

Adventurers will go strolling, visiting the Munch museum, sculpture viewing, sauna drop ins, perhaps skiing, sledding, and park snowga if the weather is right. Let’s hope for SNOW! We’ll soak up all the goodness & fabulousness from Oslo.

Following the city excitement, adventurers will take the train to Lillehammer (incl in cost) to enjoy strolling and lunch. We’ll then switch over to two cars to make the drive, about a 1/2 hr, to the countryside. We’ll have our private dreamy cabin at Natrudstilen, Sjusjøen with fabulous views towards both Jotunheimen and Norefjell, and most importantly, a hot tub!

We can truly enjoy the paradise outdoors knowing that we have plenty of indoor relaxation spaces, another well-equipped kitchen, living room, dining room, and sleeping areas. The cabin is perfectly located for skiing in/out to the alpine slope and to the famous nordic trail network in Sjusjøen; just a short walk away is the ski center where we can get our rentals (skis or snowshoes).

We can explore the little town and the trails alongside the lake; also not far from the cabin is dogsledding! This is another experience along with skiing that will be up to adventurers, MYA can book the dogsledding (about $165 per person) once we have our numbers.

Let’s hope we get three wonderful eves of clear skies with the northern lights dancing just above us! More snowga with lots of soaking in between. All will definitely delight in more yummy hot meals from MJ after we come in from all the fun we can have in the great outdoors.

On Sunday, we’ll leave our cabin behind and head to one more locale that is sure to be unique and cozy. We’ll let our cars go, have another ride on the train to head a little north of Oslo to spend the night in two micro-houses on a historic property with the magistrate’s residence from 1921. The micro-houses of which there are four were designed by architect Benedicte Sund-Matisen, SUMA arkitektur, in Nordic contemporary architectural style. It is green throughout with local labor and the materials used such as green sedum mats on the roof. There is also a sauna on the property that MYA will get access to, yay!

Don’t miss out on a crazy good time in and around Oslo as we drink in all of the Norwegian fabulousness that we can! Please note that if you're coming from the US, we'll be flying out on Sunday to arrive on Monday to Oslo :)

Escape to the Virgin Islands with MYA on an extraordinary adventure to gorgeous St. John, a small island in the Caribbean Sea. This will be our third visit and we know for certain that there will be unparalleled awesome island explorations!

Adventurers will stay at a lush mountain top villa enjoying the vistas of foliage, sea and sky. Daily visitations of iguanas, lizards, and birds are sure to delight. The possibilities are endless with playtime at the beaches, hiking, delicious vegetarian meals, veranda lounging, pool dipping, hot tub soaking, giving back as island volunteers, plenty of yoga practices, and more…

A ferry will take adventurers over to St. John (flights are into St Thomas) and MYA will arrange a 4-wheel drive pick up to whisk you off to our super fab accommodations.

A national park occupies more than half the island with its forests full of resident and migratory birds, including cuckoos, warblers and hummingbirds. The beaches are pristine and spectacular! Ancient jungles ruins are throughout the landscape. Dolphins inhabit the island’s waters, which also host hawksbill and green turtles. The mangroves at Hurricane Hole in the east support corals, anemones, and a large variety of colorful fish. Donkeys, goats, and chickens are sprinkled throughout the island.

Our stunning adventure villa is a fresh one for MYA on Bordeaux Mountain, the highest summit on the island, in the national park. Adventurers will be sweetly ensconced in a quiet, private lush space with a main house and a carriage house, between Cruz Bay & Coral Bay. Tucked away and charming, with sweeping mountain top views across the Caribbean to the British Virgin Islands with plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy the stunning scenery and cooling breeze.

Inside the magnificent mason home is the exquisite stone Great Room with soaring ceilings adorned with arched windows and mahogany french doors which open up to the wrap around covered veranda which extends out to a breezy tranquil porch.

The gourmet kitchen with blue Viking range was designed for serious cooking and entertaining in mind; Anna, our vegetarian cook for the week, is going to be killing it! The MYA offerings will be vegetarian and any and all food allergies/preferences will be honored. All of the breakfasts are covered as well as five vegetarian dinners at the house, two will be out on the town to take in the local experience.

There are two beautifully decorated bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms within the main house, one with a stone and tile outdoor shower. The close by carriage house has three spacious bedrooms with lovely interiors and a fabulous outdoor shower. The two bedrooms on the upper level of the carriage house have private access and share a spacious bathroom with the open air native stone shower. There is also a large bedroom on the ground level of the carriage house with a full ensuite bathroom. The villa truly comes together with all of the outdoors lounging/eating areas and lush tropical plantings, the infinity in-ground pool, and over sized hot tub.

But wait there’s more, the outdoor dining area with Weber grille (veggie kabobs!) with seating for up to 12 adventurers will be super cool. The space also shares a cozy, comfortable seating area all framed with beautiful arch french doors which open to the pool and central courtyard. Utterly captivating with tranquil ambiance beyond compare!

MYA will be offering up some of our time to the locals with a volunteer component added to our adventure. Adventurers can help out in the national park and/or help care for island animals such as horses, donkeys and goats at the animal sanctuary. We’ll get in a couple hours in the morning before the day heats up.

Adventurers will be hiking, snorkeling (equipment is rentable if you don’t have your own), swimming, birding & wildlife viewing, and enjoying yoga at least once a day. Every beach that we visit has the possibility of amazing underwater life, coral, turtles, fish, nurse shark, octopus etc.

We may book guided tours as well such as the leisurely kayak and snorkel adventure in Hurricane Hole w/ Arawak which has been an amazing experience 2 yrs in a row, and the sunset sail & snorkel with Stormy Pirates, also outstanding. Perhaps you have something in mind for adventurers to try, throw it out there and we’ll make it happen.

Limited space - don’t miss out on a crazy good time on the island of St. John, a slice of paradise!

Join MYA on our second epic adventure to Portugal! We’ll take in the local culture as we explore spectacular beaches, mountains, historic towns, castles, cheese shops, wine cellars & beyond…

MYA will be enjoying an elevated eight acre private property in the Parque Natural da Arrábida with magnificent views of the sea and mountains. Our breathtaking home is less than 3 miles from Castelo de Palmela, a castle situated between the estuaries of the River Tagus and Sado River, near the mouth of the latter; also part of the Costa Azul (blue coast). We’ll adventure to stunning beaches in the area that are about a 15 minute drive from the property.

The Setúbal peninsula, authentic (not ravaged by tourists yet), is known for good wine, Azeitao cheese, and cakes! Lisbon, full of charm, history and vibrant cuisine, is only 30 minutes away and Sintra, a wee bit further on, is a sweet town in a green mountainscape of palaces, country estates, parks and a medieval castle.

Adventurers will have plenty of space in a beautiful house with eight bedrooms, two living rooms, two kitchens, and a panoramic outdoor jacuzzi; views for days from every perspective. There’s a lovely pool and plenty of options indoors & out for our daily yoga practice, if the vibe is right we’ll get in an evening practice as well. Beyond the doorstep are great trails to stroll and take in more sights…

Located next to the sea, Arrábida Natural Park has incomparable beauty where the blue of the sea alternates with the white tones of chalk cliffs and the depths of green vegetation covering the mountains. In addition to the Arrábida range is the Serra do Risco with the highest peak along the Portuguese mainland coast, a magnificent cliff measuring 380m high that overlooks the sea.

Adventurers will visit the beaches of Figueirinha, Galapos and the Portinho da Arrábida with fine sand and transparent waters much like the Mediterranean. Ribeira do Cavalo is one of the best secluded beaches in Portugal which we’ll hike into through the surrounding mountains to take in the calmness of the water. Praia dos Galapinhos is a must see dreamy beach with clear waters & white sand surrounded by lush vegetation. Praia das Bicas is accessed by a long wooden stair case, a perfect spot to watch the sunset or simply play in the waves. Adventurers may find Argil, a type of green clay, that's used as a natural skin treatment.

Adventurer birders will be compelled to visit the Sado Estuary Natural Reserve. The wildlife park is home to an astonishing variety of bird species; around 220 have been recorded in open water, shallow lagoons, reed-beds, and across mud flats. The estuary is an important wintering ground for razorbill, marsh harrier, flamingo, purple heron, and black-winged stilt, among many others. Let’s go - don’t forget your binos!

Arrábida has excellent conditions for farming and produces high-quality products including the wines that we’ll discover on the Costa Azul wine route and the delicious cheeses we’ll sample in the town of Azeitão. MYA will keep a supply of Portuguese wines & cheeses at the house as well that we can sample at our leisure.

Outside of our area, we’ll adventure to Lisbon & Sintra to take in sights, get in a hike or two, and eat some yummy food, and head to fairytale castles. Adventurers can help build the excursion :)

All of the breakfasts are covered by MYA, we’ll have five vegetarian dinners at the house and two out on the town so that we can take in the local experience. Anna will be our super fab cook throughout our stay! Lunches are up to adventurers, either leftovers or stopping in a town. The MYA offerings will be vegetarian and any and all food allergies or preferences will be honored.

We filled up super quick last time around! Don’t miss out on adventuring to Portugal to take in nature, towns and cities rich in history, yoga practices with beautiful views, delicious vegetarian food, gorgeous beaches, exhilarating hikes, tasty wine (& cheese!!!), hot tubbing, and so much more.

MYA is taking on gorgeous Italy again but in a different locale, we’re headed to Abruzzo, the green lung of Europe!, for the outstanding countryside, medieval towns, stunning mountains, parks & nature reserves, and awesome beaches. Adventurers will stay seven nights in a beautiful villa nicely placed to explore all of the region’s fabulousness along with plenty of yoga, vegetarian food, and excursions. Apologies, there is very limited space on this adventure…

Our villa is in a perfect peaceful location, we can walk to the nearby village and we’re just a fifteen minute drive from Giulianova, a thriving town on the sea near the mouth of the Tordino river with one of the most beautiful sandy beaches of the Adriatic coast. Adventures will relax in the countryside with a private pool, gardens, and open views across the valleys towards hilltop towns and the majestic Gran Sasso, the highest mountain in the Apennine range.

There are six bedrooms in the modern and spacious villa designed over three floors with a sun terrace on each level to enjoy the different aspects from its elevated location. The covered outdoor corridor on the ground and first floors provide a shaded walkway that keeps the living area and bedrooms cool. Across the central lawn with a shady olive tree and leafy Mulberry tree is the old farm house which adds lots of character to the overall villa vibe. Wifi is available.

The nearby village of Mosciano Sant' Angelo provides all amenities, as well as a weekly market with local produce. During July, Mosciano and the surrounding villages host various summer festas, food nights and concerts, all just a five minute drive away. There is a fabulous traditional restaurant just a short stroll down the lane with fantastic food and views across Giulianova to the sea.

Mosciano Sant'Angelo is a fascinating medieval village, it owes its name to the cult of the Archangel Michael and can be admired from afar with its panorama of buildings including the famous Torre degli Acquaviva (water tower). This is a sweet area dominated by the view of olive groves and vineyards from which the excellent Montepulciano wine is born. Walking through its streets you can breathe history and spirituality and from here we could leave for horseback excursions in the surrounding nature. What do you think adventurers, shall we ride?!

An MYA cook, will take care of all of our breakfasts and four to five dinners, all vegetarian, whipping up the freshest most local ingredients with delightful Italian flair. Adventurers will have plenty of opportunities to enjoy meals outside of the villa, from the restaurant across the street and beyond.

Along with the daily yoga practice and an occasional evening flow under the stars, we’ll travel beyond our villa and local village to soak in more of Abruzzo. There will be a day of wine tasting; we can visit three local wineries mixed in with sightseeing and strolling. We can plan a day trip to Rome if adventurers are interested. Adventurers can venture into the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park about an hour away, if we leave early enough we can get in a hike before it gets too hot.

Roccascalegna, a perfectly preserved medieval village, lying on the spur of the mountain with its 16th century castle rising on a rock of limestone, has to be seen to be believed. Also on our list is Scanno within Abruzzo National Park, deemed one of the most beautiful villages in Italy. A visit to Bugnara, another super sweet hillside village and Catignano, will be tossed in with a visit to the seaside for cool dipping. There’s going to be a lot of gorgeous sights to take in!

Don’t miss out on a fantastic adventure in Abruzzo Italy! Adventurers will fly into Rome (leaving the US on the 21st) and meet up with Machelle and her daughter to be driven to the lovely villa where Holly and her two boys & more adventurers will greet you with open arms.

Cost: $2600 twin bed, shared room; $4800 king bed, private room, total cost for two adventurers

The possibilities are endless with playtime at the beaches, hiking, delicious vegetarian meals, deck lounging & pool dipping, giving back as island volunteers, plenty of yoga and more…

A national park occupies more than half the island with its forests full of resident and migratory birds, including cuckoos, warblers and hummingbirds. The beaches are pristine and spectacular! Ancient jungles ruins are throughout the landscape. Dolphins inhabit the island’s waters, which also host hawksbill and green turtles. The mangroves at Hurricane Hole in the east support corals, anemones, and a large variety of colorful fish.

The adventure villa is on the south shore in a quiet nature-filled neighborhood on Boatman Bay, a ten minute drive from the harbor. Owned by famous American Pop culture artist, Peter Max, the space is designed for both privacy and communal gatherings.

The coral stone deck is expansive with a pool, lounge chairs, and dining area, of course, the views are jaw dropping! The sunrise is spectacular, you can watch the magic from the comfort of your bed. All will enjoy dramatic clear turquoise reefs below, pristine National Park coastline, and crisp horizon views of the vast blue sea, sunsets and starry skies. The evening becomes a sweet time for a glass of wine and a soak in the hot tub, one of MYA’s fav amenities. The star gazing is terrific, our villa is very private without close by neighbors flooding the sky with light.

The lovely bedrooms have an en-suite bath and shower, sliding glass doors, and individual A/C units in each. Two of the bedrooms have an extra full-sized twin in the room, great for adventurers that don’t mind sharing space.

All of the breakfasts are covered by MYA, we’ll have five vegetarian dinners at the house and two out on the town so that we can take in the local experience. Anna Olsen will be our amazing talented cook! Lunches are up to adventurers, either leftovers or stopping in town. The MYA offerings will be vegetarian and any and all food allergies/preferences will be honored.

Adventurers will be hiking, snorkeling (equipment is rentable if you don’t have your own), paddleboarding (another rentable item), swimming, and enjoying yoga at least once a day. We may get in some guided tours as well such as a leisurely kayak and snorkel adventure through the mangroves; an amazing tour and MYA highly recommends it! In villa massage and spa treatments will also be an option for adventurers as an add on. Sunset charters, a mermaid experience (put on a fancy tail and pose for pics!), and a private dj are some other offerings :) We may plan a day trip to Puerto Rico and book a salsa lesson!

This time around, MYA will be offering up some of our time to the locals with a volunteer component added to our adventure. Adventurers can walk dogs at the animal shelter, help care for island animals such as horses, donkeys and goats at the animal sanctuary, and/or help with a clean-up or maintenance project at the Virgin Islands National Park.

Don’t miss out on a crazy good time on the island of St. John, a slice of paradise! Adventures will enjoy seven nights in a private lux villa with breakfasts and dinners (5) included, daily yoga, volunteering with locals, private pool & hot tub, hiking, swimming, and snorkeling…

Join MYA on an epic adventure to Portugal! We’ll hike and take in the local culture as we explore spectacular beaches, mountains, historic towns, castles, cheese shops, wine cellars & beyond…

MYA will be enjoying an elevated eight acre private property in the Parque Natural da Arrábida with magnificent views to the sea, mountains and Lisbon. Our home is less than 3 miles from Castelo de Palmela, a castle situated between the estuaries of the River Tagus and Sado River, near the mouth of the latter; also part of the Costa Azul (blue coast).

Lisbon, full of charm, history and vibrant cuisine, is only 30 minutes away and Sintra, a wee bit further on, is a sweet town in a green mountainscape of palaces, country estates, parks and a medieval castle.

Adventurers will have plenty of space in a large beautiful house with eight bedrooms, two living rooms, two kitchens, and a panoramic outdoor jacuzzi with crazy views. There’s a lovely pool and plenty of options indoors & out for our daily yoga practice, if the vibe is right we’ll get in an evening practice as well.

Located next to the sea, Arrábida Natural Park has incomparable beauty where the blue of the sea alternates with the white tones of chalk cliffs and the depths of green vegetation covering the mountains. Speleology (cave explorations), diving, and mountain climbing are a few activities that local guides offer. In addition to the Arrábida mountain range is the Serra do Risco with the highest peak along the Portuguese mainland coast, a magnificent cliff measuring 380m high that overlooks the sea.

Adventurers will visit the beaches of Figueirinha, Galapos and the Portinho da Arrábida with fine sand and transparent waters much like the Mediterranean. Access will be an adventure as we take a steep, uneven path down known locally as the 'goat path'. Ribeira do Cavalo is one of the best secluded beaches in Portugal which we’ll hike into through the surrounding mountains to take in the calmness of the water that is uncommon in this area.

Praia dos Galapinhos is another dreamy beach with clear waters & white sand surrounded by lush vegetation. An unmarked trail that starts on the side of the road after Galapinhos is Praia dos Coelhos, a stunning wild beach with another steep downhill walk but wicked worthwhile. As another way to explore the area, adventurers may want to get in on a Coasteering Trip, a multi-activity that uses trekking, climbing, swimming, rappelling, zip line, caving and many jumps into the water.

Adventurer birders will be compelled to visit the Sado Estuary Natural Reserve. The wildlife park is home to an astonishing variety of bird species; around 220 have been recorded in open water, shallow lagoons, reed-beds, and across mud flats. The estuary is an important wintering ground for razorbill, marsh harrier, flamingo, purple heron, and black-winged stilt, among many others. Let’s go - don’t forget your binos!

There are more interconnected beaches with high cliffs and incredible walking trails. Adventurers may find Argil, a type of green clay, that's used as a natural skin treatment. Strong waves & high tides are the gift of these beaches so we’ll hang back watch surfers dance on the treacherous waters. Praia das Bicas is accessed by a long & steep wooden stair case, a perfect spot to watch the sunset or adventurers could opt for paragliding from the cliff edge for an incredible high!

Arrábida has excellent conditions for farming and produces high-quality products including the wines that we’ll discover on the Costa Azul wine route and the delicious cheeses we’ll sample in the town of Azeitão. MYA will keep a supply of Portuguese wines & cheeses at the house as well that we can sample at our leisure.

Outside of our area, we’ll adventure to Lisbon & Sintra to take in sights, get in a hike or two, and eat some yummy food. We may want to take an electric bike guided tour in the city before we head to the fairytale castles. Adventurers can help build the excursion :)

All of the breakfasts are covered by MYA, we’ll have five vegetarian dinners at the house and two out on the town so that we can take in the local experience. Lunches are up to adventurers, either leftovers or stopping in a town. The MYA offerings will be vegetarian and any and all food allergies/preferences will be honored.

MYA is heading to Deutschland for an incredible eight day adventure of thermal soaking, forest bathing, fairytale castle exploring, beer imbibing, train riding, yoga flows, vegetarian food, and more!

Adventurers will meet up at the Frankfurt International Airport (flying out on Monday, May 9th to arrive the next day) and make our way to southerly realms. We’ll hop onto the train, our favored mode of travel for this adventure, en route to a spa town surrounded by the black forest for two nights, the infamous Baden-Baden, home of therapeutic waters.

Our first accommodations are located in the heart of Baden-Baden’s picturesque Old Town. We’ll stay in two apartments in a beautiful historic building with a terrace and a kitchen for MYA to work their magic. Most breakfasts and dinners will be sourced locally & vegetarian. If you have dietary needs beyond food allergies/sensitivities which will be honored, lunch will be the time to satiate those cravings. Adventurers can walk everywhere in this enchanting town; including a mere five minute stroll to the best soaking venue in town, Caracalla Spa.

MYA loves a good soaking after a long flight! Baden-Baden thermal water comes from a depth of 2000 meters and is the most mineral-rich in Germany. With temperatures between 32° and 68° C it regenerates and stimulates the whole body contributing to health and well-being.

The Caracalla Spa offers up space for soothing relaxation and bathing pleasure in the hot thermal water. A combination of water areas and saunas of five different types, an outdoor area in the picturesque castle garden including two marble pools, a lazy river, massage jets and two whirlpools will surely intoxicate adventurers. There’s even a brine inhalation room.

After a good night’s sleep we’ll take more time to enjoy the fairy tale village. An adventurer option could be to take on another spa, the Friedrichsbad is a nude spa, which focuses on the more classic roman bath culture features. The experience relies on the completion of a 17-step circuit which combines soaking in Roman baths of varying temperatures, with Irish steam baths, and a full-body scrub and massage. There are plenty of hiking trails to take us out of town and into the forest, visiting the old castle will be on our to-do list. From thermal bathing to forest bathing :)

With a traditional breakfast, fruhstuck, in our bellies (coffee or tea and bread presented with various toppings such as butter, nutella, cheese, jam, and honey - perhaps a boiled egg added in as well, yum!); adventurers will get ready to move on to Stuttgart.

Our next accommodations will be close to the super fab old town in a historic hotel with a whole lot of character and coziness for the group to put their feet up and relax. Adventurers will pour into two nicely appointed suites. This will be a night out for dinnertime and taking in the scenery, the culture, the beer…

Sweet spots to investigate in the city are St. John’s Church, a stunning Gothic which can be seen reflected in Lake of Feursee which surrounds it, Old Castle is a must, located on the Schillerplatz, a cobblestone square, and if adventurers are up for it, we may get on the outskirts as well to Schloss Solitude.

From Stuttgart, MYA will be traveling by car to stay in Dornstetten at a lovely home with lots of character and a hot tub and sauna! Plenty of space for adventurers with six bedrooms, an open kitchen, and a terrace with a garden that captures the perfect view of sunsets. For music lovers, there’s a piano in the cottage and plenty of books to linger over. We’ll be close to Freudenstadt, the city in the Black Forest with Germany's largest marketplace. In addition, Strasbourg, France, Lake Constance, Stuttgart, Pforzheim, Freiburg and Karlsruhe are just 1 hour away.

Hohenzollern, a magical fairy tale stunning beauty of a castle will be on the itinerary as well as Lichtenstein castle, the gothic revival built upon an escarpment on the edge of the Swabian Alps looking quite dramatic and otherworldly. We’ll definitely be enjoying some hiking trails throughout these jaw dropping environs.

Another option adventurers can decide upon is trekking down to Titisee to partake in the bathing paradise at Schwarzwald - there will be a bit of yin and yang happening here with galaxy schwarzwald thrills (water slides!) and the palm oasis and palais vital targeted towards ultimate relaxation including themed saunas and textile-free water worlds. We may want to spend some time on the lake kayaking or stand up paddleboarding as well.

Back onto the train, we’ll head to our next locale, Bacharach, a picturesque village in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley but not without a stop in the romantic cityscape of Heidelberg on the river Neckar. Adventurers will have an opportunity to stroll through the historic city center's Gothic streets, visit Heidelberg Castle, and Alte Brucke, a beautiful 18th-century bridge. It’ll be the perfect spot for lunch and a beer tasting before heading back on the train to suffer through more beautiful Deutschland!!!

Our final accommodations will be a two night stay in the center of the quaint jewel of a village called Bacharach. A five minute walk from both the train station and the River Rhine, adventurers will stay in a beautiful hotel right in the center of town with a couple of balconies, access to the garden, and traditional Germany breakfasts.

The medieval village of Bacharach surrounded by steep hills planted with grapevines is entered through a gate in the old town walls. The Burg Stahleck fortress looks onto the village of cobbled streets from above. Adventurers will have plenty of time to explore beyond the village - we can pop on and off the hiking paths on the Rheinburgenweg (Rhine castles trail), visit Oberwesel’s Schönburg Castle for a lunchtime excursion, perhaps Pfalzgrafenstein Castle as well and a short train ride to St. Goar for Rheinfels Castle. This area is jam-packed with magical, fairytale beauty and as a group we can go where our hearts lead us…

Escape to the Virgin Islands with MYA on an extraordinary adventure to gorgeous St. John, a small island in the Caribbean Sea. Bring your snorkeling and scuba gear if you have it - let’s come together for some awesome island explorations!

Adventurers will stay on a hillside villa enjoying the vistas of foliage, sea and sky. The possibilities are endless with playtime at the beaches, a day trip to Puerto Rico, deck lounging & pool dipping, hiking, delicious vegetarian meals, plenty of yoga and more…

A ferry will take adventurers over to St. John (flights are into St Thomas!) and MYA will get you to our super fab private villa. A national park occupies more than half the island with its forests full of resident and migratory birds, including cuckoos, warblers and hummingbirds. The beaches are absolutely spectacular! Dolphins inhabit the island’s waters, which also host hawksbill and green turtles. The mangroves at Hurricane Hole, in the east, support corals and anemones.

The adventure villa is on the south shore in a quiet nature-filled neighborhood on Boatman Bay, a ten minute drive from the harbor. Owned by famous American Pop culture artist, Peter Max, the space is designed for both privacy and communal gatherings.

The lovely bedrooms have an en-suite bath and shower, sliding glass doors, and individual A/C units in each. Two of the king bedrooms have an extra full-sized twin in the room, great for adventurers that don’t mind sharing their space. To round out the group experience, Holly’s 12yr old son Augi will be adventuring with us!

The coral stone deck is expansive with a pool, lounge chairs, and dining area, of course, the views are jaw dropping! All will enjoy dramatic clear turquoise reefs below, pristine National Park coastline, and crisp horizon views of the vast blue sea, sunrises, and moonrises. The evening might be the perfect time to soak in the hot tub, one of MYA’s fav amenities.

We’ll break up the dining experience having four dinners served up at the villa and three meals out on the town being sure to take in the local experience. The MYA offerings will be vegetarian :)

Adventurers will be hiking, snorkeling (equipment is rentable if you don’t have your own), paddleboarding (another rentable item), and swimming. The floating bar might be an interesting excursion and we may get in some guided tours as well such as a leisurely kayak and snorkel adventure through the mangroves – an experience offered very few other places in the world! In villa massage and spa treatments will also be an option for adventurers as an add on. Sunset charters, a mermaid experience (yes, you can put on a fancy tail and pose for pics!), and a private dj are some other offerings :) MYA is definitely planning on a day trip to Puerto Rico - lets book a salsa lesson together and really have some fun!

Don’t miss out on a crazy good time on the island of St. John, a slice of paradise! Adventures will enjoy seven nights in sweet accommodations with breakfasts and four dinners included, yoga twice daily, private pool & hot tub, hiking, swimming, and snorkeling…
