Travel Therapy

WHY TRAVEL THERAPY?

A client once called me, Alessandra, her travel therapist. She was recently widowed and about to embark on her first solo trip. We talked over everything from where she should go, all the details of the trip to going into her wardrobe and helping her pack. Any time she felt nervous about the trip, a fear popped up, she called me and I guided her through her concerns putting her at ease. Hence the name travel therapy. Let’s talk travel!

FOR WHOM?

ANYONE WHO IS,

Navigating the changes in travel

Considering remote work and living nomadically

Overwhelmed with online resources and would rather speak to a real person

Keen to talk about future trips, yet not ready or able to confirm an actual trip

Eager to plan travels that have a positive social and environmental impact

Up for joining us on our travels

HOW DOES IT WORK?

I, Alessandra, offer travel guidance in person and virtually over WhatsApp or Zoom (video or voice) to anywhere else

We schedule a 1-hour session at a convenient time and date

I send you a questionnaire you may wish to complete in advance to help you start thinking about your travels (optional and helpful). For a more productive session I ask for your thoughts beforehand so I can be up to date with specific travel restrictions as it is changing daily.

PRICE?

A regular one-hour session is $85, inclusive of a summary email with resources discussed

An introductory offer of $50 for the first session

I strive to bring joy of our planet in to your life in a one-to-one experience. There is no commitment after the session to plan a trip with me. You may wish to do it on your own with the resources we discuss or with my travel design service when you are ready to travel again.

WHAT DO WE CHAT ABOUT?

We talk through the many existential questions of the times – the can, should, where, and how’s of travel, what are the risks and benefits, what can I experience, can I afford this type of a trip, how can I ensure my travels have a positive social and environmental impact? Climate change, COVID, Black Lives Matter have all brought up important issues we need to talk about. We, at Karvansarai, do not wish travel to go back to normal, rather change for the healthier, one trip at a time. I encourage you to ask me anything, the more personal the better. I wish to listen to your story and together find what’s right for you.
