COVID-19 & Responsible Travel: We are excited to inform you that most of our tours will resume operation this year, 2022. However, to keep everyone, including our hosts and clients, safe and healthy — as well as streamlining the process of acquiring destination venues and accommodations — we are asking that all workshop participants be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Please be able to show verifiable documentation of your latest vaccination. - Welcome to the Post-Covid-19 Era!
