5) A leisurely day
Lessons learned at Rancho
1) Life doesn’t need to be overplanned and over packed to be enjoyable.
2) In life; always try something new.
3) You can turn anything into a paradise or a prison.
4) Memories are a lot better when we are disconnected.
Rancho La Puerta has a few simple rules, one of them being, no phones at dinner or anywhere other than in your rooms or the lounge. That forced me to disconnect greatly, and for two days I didn’t even bring my phone with me. They provide you with a phone sleep bag which I also loved, because it felt really intentional to tuck my phone away in there. As such, I feel like the memories of the week are bright and vibrant. I spent more time taking photos on my camera than on my phone, and I feel like I was much more immersed. I can’t wait to go back, I think everyone deserves a week like this.
