A memorable Christmas!
What a perfect place for Christmas and for healing! The Rainforest Retreat sounds magical with your own cabin, places to hike, bio food and great people. So glad you didn't have to stay in that hospital, and glad you're feeling better! Happy travels!

When you travel to India I know interesting stories are coming. You don't go to the places everyone else finds. The retreat sounds wonderful. Glad you are back on track. Keep the adventures coming.
