Raw Food Yoga Retreat: Honduras


I'm sorry it has taken so long to update blog.
The Buddy Walk was on October 27th, a few days later it was Halloween and then Nir and I left a few days after that for Honduras.
 I took Nir there for his 40th Bday present. I had been asking him for months what he wanted to do for his big day. He told me he wanted to take a trip. He mentioned Italy, Paris... I googled trips to both and then checked out the weather. To cold for this Floridian. I can not travel anywhere colder than it is here in Naples.(unless it is skiing) I also thought what will we eat in those countries? We have both eaten so well since our 3 week cleanse of wheatgrass, green juices and salads this past June when we went to Hippocrates Health Institute in West Palm Beach.
I ended up googling Raw Food Retreats and ended up with 2 choices. One in Puerto Rico and one in Honduras. I showed both to Nir and let him decide. This was his choice:


We spentt 2 amazing weeks learning Ashtanga Yoga for an hour and half each morning. We followed that with some type of exercise like hiking the mountain jungle to beautiful waterfalls or walking for miles to small villages enjoying our time with the local community.



Here are some photo's from the trip:
