All these mountain towns just keep getting cuter and cuter 😍 This is Ibitipoca 🇧🇷 surrounded by waterfalls, epic views, atv trails, and more 🔥

If you know, you know 🫶🏽 This is a big part of what started @expansive.experiences - my love for showing others places I love and seeing them experience it too 🤩 I once read two self development books back to back that both asked “what would your friends say you are good at?” and my friends are always telling me I should be a tour guide because I know the best spots and love taking people there. So with @expansive.experiences, I get to mix my love for being a tour guide, with my love for wellness + yoga, with my love for cultural immersion, with my love for the environment + teaching sustainable solutions, with my love for helping people heal in more natural ways and it all comes together to create these incredible retreats 🫶🏽✨ It is truly a combination of all my passions in one 💞 #lovelanguage #explore #travel #mypurpose #mypassion #retreats #adventure #tourguide

This is Vale do Matutu ⛰ An incredible valley with the sweetest community, the most outstanding views, araucaria forests, waterfalls, hikes, and barely any cars so most people transit through walking. My time here was spent in @tiairaci which is an amazing bed and breakfast style hotel that immerses you in the local culture and the people who call this place home. This is another town that the fairies 🧚‍♂️ witches 🧙‍♀️ and wizards 🧙‍♂️ call home 🫶🏽 So obviously I love it here #thepathlesstraveled #culturalimmersion #valedomatutu #minasgerais #mataatlantica #atlanticforest #preserve #protect #explore #araucaria

A town that makes you feel like you are part of an epic movie featuring wizards 🧙‍♂️ witches 🧙‍♀️ fairies 🧚‍♀️ aliens 👽 and more ✨ #saothomé #meuuberchegou #soparaloucos #brazil

PSA 📣😎‼️ #justknowthat #beyourself #stayweird

Rare sighting of me in jeans 😎👖 bet ya’ll didn’t think I owned any the sunsets in #sãothomé thooo ⛅️ >>>

Being here has been such a delight - allowing myself to take slow mornings where I stretch, exercise, meditate, do breath work, drink tea, listen to the birds, and journal 🤍 I wish all mornings were like this, but back home I get caught up in having to be at work or certain places and don’t give myself the slow mornings I crave These are some photos from my asana practice the other morning and some cute reminders of how much we deserve self care and taking it slow ✨ What’s the rush anyway? #selfcare #takeitslow #yoga #asana #journaling #productivity #youarewhole #slowmornings #brazil #minasgerais #nature #almaenatureza

It’s time to spread your wings and fly ✈️ ✨🕊 What’s the biggest thought holding you back?

Miss having @amyhickss & her awesome photography skills on the island 📸 🏝 Throwback to that one time we ran into a gay nude beach without knowing it 🌈 #happypridemonthyall There’s no better feeling than being naked on the beach with your girls knowing none of the men are staring, catcalling, or hitting on you 💃🏻✨

Going to the river is one of my favorite forms of medicine 🌿 I always come out feeling replenished, refreshed, and reborn 💚 #teamopachamama🌎 #naturesbaptism

Remember who you are. We are Earth 🌍 We are the elements that surround us 💚 Earth, water, fire, air, and spirit are elemental energies inside each of us. When they are aligned, life is easy. When they are not in balance life is challenging; we may experience stress, have emotional issues, and dis-ease. It’s easy to connect to the energies within by finding moments with the elements in nature. Much healing can be found by acknowledging the elements and taking time to connect to them. The vastness of our potential can only fully be explored if we embrace all these incredible elements. This constellation, this dynamic compass, this ever renewing source of inner qualities can bring about wisdom, grace, and healing - what we need to live every day life. ✨

Some throwbacks captured by the amazing @rickynova67 📸 of what a sunrise morning in @antiresort is like ☕️🌅 Wearing one of my favorite sets from @kudalautdesigns 💘

Always keep moving forward ⏩ Little steps add up and go a long way in the end 💛 Just showing up for yourself everyday ✨ that’s all that matters

I am a part of the group of wild ones, us women who speak to the moon. 🌙 We crave passion, live with wide open hearts and we wear our hearts on our sleeves too. 💕 Often told we are too much, but taming our spirit is something we’ll never do. 🔥 Love us as we are, we create our own rules. ✨ You’ll know a wild woman when you meet one, heck you’ll feel her essence before knowing her name. They have this eccentric energy about them, one that passes by to touch the core – to awaken your own spirit to seek a little deeper, a little more 💥 #nikkirowe 📸 @fionakatephoto @fionamullenphotography 🐚 @kiki_islandjewelry 🌺 @coralsfloralspr Some more photos from this incredible photoshoot with my favorite jewelry on the island 🏝

Just a reminder 🤎 This planet has way too much beauty for us to see, make sure to get outside & enjoy it 🙌🏽

Nothing like a good river day to help you cleanse away all your problems 💦

Nature has created so many ways for us to heal ourselves from the inside out 🌿 If your doctor immediately turns to prescription drugs, before exploring other ways to shift your life, then that’s really just your drug dealer. 💊 The ads for most prescription drugs scare me, they seem to have more side effects than the problem they are meant to “fix”. There’s a lot of doctors out there that are only looking for a new client, not to truly get down to the symptoms and help heal them long term. There’s always an alternative option out there 🙌🏽 Our planet provides us the medicines we need and deserve. At @expansive.experiences, our goal is to show people these alternative ways of bettering their life by connecting them deeper to the earth, themselves, and the people around them 💖 DM me to learn more about some of my favorite natural options 🌱

DR 🇩🇴 dump 📸 Two weeks of much needed adventure, cycles, introspection, relaxation, and fun 🤩 enjoying each phase! Just like the moon, we go through phases. Every phase has beauty and lessons that come with it. Learning everyday more & more how to love life through all the phases. Sometimes I get to feel full, whole, and shine bright 🌝. Other times I get to be in a darker place and more introspective 🌙. It’s all part of this beautiful journey we get to call life.

I am not gonna lie, it was a crazy fuckin’ adventure to get to this waterfall, but SO WORTH IT 🙌🏽 I rented my bike 🏍 on a mission to find this waterfall and so I set out for the day not knowing what lie ahead. All the reviews said “the road was intense and you needed moto or 4x4”, but people tend to exaggerate and I had a moto so I thought I was good haha 😆 When I got there, it was all rocky road - up and down mountains and hills. It was gnarly forsure. Then after about 40 mins of pure rocky intense road, I got to a river I couldn’t cross. Until two local guys pulled up and assured me I could cross, no problem. So they helped me and became my local tour guides for the day. They got me all sorts of delicious fruits, introduced me to all their friends en el campo, and took me to multiple rivers and the waterfall I wanted to see. These experiences only happen when you leave your comfort zone and go live life fully. Attracting what is meant for you 💫 The news does such a good job at feeding fear into our brains to keep us small and not encourage us to get out in the world. Of course there is danger out there, but after traveling lots of the world. I find the US to be one of the most dangerous places out there, yet they love to say how every where else is more dangerous. So go out, explore, and keep yourself open to life. That’s how I get to have these authentic incredible experiences. In my opinion, those are the best memories I have. My favorite part of my trips is getting to know the local culture first hand ❤️🇩🇴 Gracias a Luis Y Bobi por ser mis angelitos guías ese dia 🥰✨ #solotravel #solotraveler #adventuremylifestyle

In nature, nothing is perfect and everything is perfect. Trees can be contorted, bent in weird ways, and they’re still gorgeous. Time spent amongst the trees is so special 🌿 It teaches you just how imperfectly perfect every creation is ✨
