you can live differently.
​
Maybe you’re here because you’ve been actively looking for a life-changing travel experience.
Maybe you’re just tired of living life in the same way and you need to rekindle your sense of adventure.
Maybe you don’t know what you’re looking for, and maybe that is the problem.
​
We’ve been there.
We’ve experienced first-hand the struggles that our generation faces: unbalanced work-life, few real human interactions outside of social media, poor sleep and nutrition, no time or motivation for exercise.
We live in boxes, staring at screens.
We’ve felt the overwhelming stress, anxiety, and loneliness. That feeling of being stuck, or maybe even numb to everything around us. This is bad, but it gets worse.
Over time, you start to identify with these feelings. You become jaded.
Stress turns to anger. Loneliness turns to depression. Numbness turns to cynicism. Cynicism to contempt. Towards others and the world.
Towards yourself.
We’ve felt this way, too.
Aren’t you too young to feel this way? This is what we asked ourselves.
Yes, of course, a million times yes. It will always be yes.
We could not accept this life for ourselves. In fact, we made it our purpose to find a way to live that felt meaningful.
We set out on an adventure to prove to ourselves that we could live differently.
We’ve written this next chapter for you to show you that you can purposefully write out the rest of your life.
​
We can't wait to meet you.

In her early years, Constanza spent countless hours outside playing with her dogs and inside reading with her cats.
As she grew up, her love for her pets transcended the boundaries of her house, extending out to animals, people, and nature everywhere.
This love for the world kept on growing, driving her to study global sustainability in college and later work in the public sector to channel it. But it wasn’t enough.
During the pandemic, she founded a menstrual education business for women alongside a friend. It worked for a while, and it was meaningful. But it wasn’t all she was looking for.
She then moved to California for two years and used that time to cultivate and deepen her yoga practice. She became an Anusara yoga instructor.
In teaching yoga, she finally found her way to channel her love for the world and her desire to serve.
She’d always had a purpose. Now, she had the tools.
The little girl who loved cats and dogs rejoicing within her, she set out to change the world.

Ricardo has spent countless hours thinking. He thinks a lot, especially about how much he thinks…
He grew up in Ecuador and moved to the US for 10 years to study and work. A dedicated student, avid learner, and adventure-seeker, Ricardo continuously pursued new experiences to deliver long-lasting fulfillment and purpose.
He easily got bored, and thought: “maybe I should just try something new”
.So he did.
He tried out jobs in banking, consulting, and higher education. He did an MBA, started a company, and taught. Yet, he was baffled at how quickly he became bored again. Every new undertaking was thrilling but ephemeral, and his excitement quickly dissolved into apathy. Serendipity would have him learn about yoga and meditation then, as he was about to start thinking anew.
Ricardo now likes to spend time discovering his mind. He still thinks, but now he observes he is thinking.

Sergio spent ten years living someone else’s story. Then, one day, he quit.
He’d quit a few times before. Since graduating college, Sergio had worked at a bank, as a political risk consultant, and as a marketing strategist.
He figured that he got used to things too quickly. He learned quickly. He’d start, exceed expectations, work hard, get promoted, get a better salary… and then inevitably lose interest.
About a year ago he realized that interest, in and of itself, wasn’t going to cut it. He found way too many things “interesting.”
He wasn’t pursuing something that he really believed in. He needed something meaningful. A challenge. An adventure.
After this painfully obvious realization, he quit living someone else’s story for the last time, and started writing his own.
