Travel coaching

"A person susceptible of "wanderlust" is not so much addicted with movement as committed with transformation." Pico Iyer.

Solo traveling is among people's favourite ways to transform and expand themselves and realise who they are. You also get to know different people, new cultures, different landscapes and cities, try new activities and taste different flavours. All in all, traveling is a party for the senses and the soul.

At the same time it might pose some challenges to deal with, such us decision fatigue, confusion, loneliness, unmet needs, wanting to escape from difficult emotions arising or just feeling that you are not experiencing it to the fullest. All this cocktail is part of the journey and knowing how to deal with it will define the result of your journey.

After the journey, a new challenge comes. How to fit in your previous life. If long and transformative enough, the journey will not leave you as the same person. You might deeply question the life you have been living before and might struggle to adapt again. Or you might not want to adapt again and you choose to turn your life upside down. In any case, having the right support at this stage can make this landing smoother and save time and hustle in figure things out for yourself.

Are you wondering if travel coaching is for you?

Travel coaching might be for you if:

You have a longing to explore and visit different countries on your own but you do not know where to start from.

You want to do a solo-journey but are not sure of the traveling possibilities available or what type of journey will suit you best.

When you think of traveling alone you feel excited but then your mind hijacks that feeling with different thoughts of fear or why it is not a good idea.

You are stuck in your life and you feel you need some time away to find yourself.

You have travelled solo before and aware of some of the challenges, this time you seek support.

You have traveled solo before but you want to have a very meaningful experience and you need support in that preparation.

You want to have a life changing journey, with depth and as much outer as inner exploration. You are ready to unravel yourself.

Method

I am confident that deep down you know how to make your trip a magnificent reality. My task is to ask you the right questions so that you find the answers of what you need.

The structure of the sessions I propose is as follows:

30 minutes free-intake call before the trip. Here you frame your journey (how long, where, any challenge or barrier, intention, ...), I get to know a bit who you are and if we are a good fit then:

1-3 pre-journey calls. The number will depend on your needs. Topics that are important to address are: intention of your trip, preparation, expectations, points to keep an eye on during the trip and exploration of mental barriers or fears.

X during-journey calls. They will depend on the intention and challenges of your journey. If you are choosing a full-on deep journey of self-realisation, a weekly call would be ideal to support and mirror that journey into the depths of your being. If your main challenge was to start and then your journey consists of staying long periods in the same place, a monthly call to check-in could be enough. And any other situation in between. You and your needs will define this number.

1-X post-journey calls. The number of calls will become clear towards the end of your journey. If it was a smooth journey, or it is not your first solo long trip, one or two calls could be enough to reflect on it and recapitulate learnings and lessons you want to integrate in your life. If it was a long trip that moved you and made you question your whole life, a longer number of calls could be necessary. The possibility to move from a travel coaching framework to a life/soul/embodiment one might arise at this point.

My why

I am deeply passionate about traveling and transformation. Every transformation is an adventure and every adventure is a transformation for me. Every journey is a new opportunity to know myself on a different level. When I start a new trip I am as excited about who I will meet and what I will see as about how the trip will transform me and who I will become after it. I love having solo-long trips between life stages as a rite of passage. I have been solo-traveling for +10 years now. I have traveled in Europe, Asia, America and Africa, and I am currently living as a nomad. My flagship solo-trips have been:

9 months in South East Asia to explore what was a foreign land to me.

5 months in Central America to reconnect with nature.

2 months in Spain to integrate my roots.

As remarkable experiences as they all have been, I have met also deep challenges. The first long solo trip, the one in South East Asia for 9 months, took me to my extremes and led me to a severe burnout. Looking back, I can see how unprepared I was for it. Yet it was a life changing experience.

Not only with my experience but the experience of many other fellow travellers, I have now a very clear picture of the pitfalls and challenges one can come across in a solo long term trip. My spiritual practices and coaching background have provided me with key tools to make sure those challenges are properly tackled and the journey turns out a beautiful transformative experience.
