Northern California的缤纷体验

Join us as we explore ancient Native American trails, camps, and villages, and search for new, previously undiscovered sites. We will be hiking a mostly-level 3-5 mile trip, navigating the low altitude grasslands of the Sierra Nevada foothills near Cool, California. The trip leader will discuss the history and natural world of this area, sharing his knowledge of the local Native Americans, as well as the flora, fauna, and geology of the area. Sunday trips, during the summer, will be hosted at a higher elevation petroglyph site, a unique place not known to the general public. This is a rare opportunity to view ancient rock art, with an (amateur) archaeologist present. And it's above the summer heat! Our trip will also explore new areas, if desired, in search for previously unknown, undocumented cultural resources. Any new sites will be passed along to the North Central Information Center for historical preservation. This is your chance to find history! After the hike, participants will receive a detailed map and photos, if desired, from the trip. This is a kid-friendly, dog-friendly walk, so plan on taking your time! Other things to note: This is a hike in the mountains, so plan accordingly. We WILL be hiking off the trail, so be sure you're comfortable doing so. To stay on the trail is to limit yourself.

Kayaking the lake at dusk is always a magical experience. Imagine yourself gliding across the clear waters of Lake Tahoe as they change from emerald-blue to pink and purple. As you look up into the sky, you will see the sun slowly sinking behind the majestic peaks of Lake Tahoe’s West Shore. This is one unforgettable experience you will not want to miss. Tour start-times vary as the days get shorter. We aim to launch this tour 2 hours before sunset. Please Note: In order for the tour to go ahead, we require at least two participants. If you are a single person, please go ahead and book as you may be able to join an existing party. We will reach out to you directly if we need to reschedule.

After being introduced to the space and to each other, I will provide a quick demonstration on the wheel with a small amount of clay. Afterwards, each guest will be allowed time to create a piece on the wheel from beginning to end with personal instruction and assistance from me. Guests are welcome to make anything they would like to on the wheel! Cup, bowl, vase, dish, etc. (Please Read)The firing of pottery is a long process that is separate from the time we spend on the wheel. Each piece requires a two day long firing process in a kiln, and I hand glaze each piece. I offer kiln services out of my personal studio if you have interest in having your piece fired for a *small fee that is not due the day of the experience.* I do not include this in the price of the experience because some guests do not wish to keep their piece. Wear comfortable clothing that you don't mind getting some clay on. Clay will wash out, but you may not want to go out right after. The time noted on the experience, 2 hours, is generally descriptive of a 2 person experience which encompasses the majority of my bookings. In general, the experience is 1 hour per person. If there are 3 or 4 people in the booking, likely the experience will extend the 2 hour session time, and if there is 1 person in the booking it will be closer to an hour.

Please, message before booking. :) Donation based experience. I Kindly Ask if you: Like the experience and photos, donate - $125 (per person) Love the experience and photos, donate - $150 (per person) Had the best experience and photos ever - $200 (per person) * THERE’S NO FEE FOR KIDS* We will walk into the best spots of the historic Mission District neighborhood and secret spots as we explore the area. We'll kick off the iconic Dolores Park with an incredible view of the city's skyline and then weave through Valencia Street's lively atmosphere—home to murals, street art, shops, and hidden gems known only to the locals. Whether you're a visitor or a local, shy or camera-ready, don't worry my friend—I'll guide you through a laid-back, street-style photoshoot, ensuring we capture your best angles and candid moments. You will get a minimum of 30 high-resolution edited photos. Every intimate moment and experience will be captured and blended into a dreamlike sequence, so you can share them with family and friends. P.S. This can be a group experience. There maybe 1 - 3 other people with you during the shoot, just let me know in advance. Other things to note: Have a specific location in mind? Feel free to reach out, and we'll tailor the experience to your preferences. We can explore other hidden gems around the city or visit some iconic spots like the Golden Gate Bridge.

We'll start with a tour of the sanctuary where you'll meet a variety of rescued farm animals. We'll share their stories of resilience and healing and talk a bit more about the industries they come from. You'll love meeting our animal ambassadors and may be surprised at what you learn, since we so rarely see the animals in our food system. Join us afterwards at our picnic tables in the field for a glass of local wine and a vegan cheese and charcuterie platter. (Note: The platter contains nuts and gluten unless otherwise requested. Please inform us of any allergies when you make your booking so we can be sure to provide suitable options. Non-alcoholic beverages will also be served.) The Experience will last approximately 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Please be mindful that as a sanctuary for rescued animals, our priority is the physical and emotional well being of the rescued animals who call Charlie's Acres home. Our loved animal residents are completely free and always have a choice as to whether or not they want to interact with visitors. They will reside at the sanctuary for the rest of their lives, where we'll have the honor of taking care of them.

In the ancient Mayan culture, it has been an integral part of the diet, complementary to corn.

Are you visiting Silicon Valley or want an original teambuilding activity for your company? Do you want to discover hidden trails across Los Altos Hills with the scenic views that reach all the way from San Francisco to San Jose? Then this experience is definitely for you! In about 2 hours you'll discover the many hidden pathways that take you through the rolling hills of the Santa Cruz foothills. All you need are a pair of comfortable hiking shoes and a water bottle. One of the hidden jewels found in beautiful Los Altos Hills is the ever-evolving pathway system. This extensive network of pathways provides locals with unique opportunities to conveniently explore nature, exercising in open spaces, and enjoying quality time with family and friends. All this started back in 1956, when the pathway system was unofficially developed as a network of trails that connected the surrounding neighborhoods throughout the community. We'll start our walk at the historic Westwind barn which serves as a horse boarding and training facility. The trail will take us through the Byrne Preserve with its many oak trees. You'll get a feel of the lifestyle of silicon valley executives who choose Los Altos hills as their retreat from the hustle and bustle of the valley. We will walk on paths and neighborhood streets at a leisurly pace and be ready to climb and descent in order to have the views.

We conclude back at the barn where we have socially distanced, outdoor spaces available for your use if you would like to enjoy a BYO picnic with the farmland views.

This is a kayak tour that begins at Tahoe City's "Commons Beach" and paddles down the west shore of Lake Tahoe. This tour is great for beginner and intermediate paddlers. I have lots of experience professionally guiding kayak tours through Tahoe City Kayak, and on this tour you'll receive some paddling instruction, while also learning interesting historical facts and stories about the Lake Tahoe. The Tahoe City area is a great place to paddle, with free parking and easy access (especially compared to many beaches on the South and East shore of the lake). It's one of the most calm/wind protected areas of the lake, so it's a confidence inspiring zone for paddlers who are new to the sport. Please Note: this tour requires a 2-person minimum. If you are a single person, please call Tahoe City Kayak as you may be able to join an existing party and participate that way.

Kayaking the lake at dusk is always a magical experience. Imagine yourself gliding across the clear waters of Lake Tahoe as they change from emerald-blue to pink and purple. As you look up into the sky, you will see the sun slowly sinking behind the majestic peaks of Lake Tahoe’s West Shore. This is one unforgettable experience you will not want to miss. Tour start-times vary as the days get shorter. We aim to launch this tour 2 hours before sunset. Please Note: In order for the tour to go ahead, we require at least two participants. If you are a single person, please go ahead and book as you may be able to join an existing party. We will reach out to you directly if we need to reschedule.

Take a time out from the hustle and gift your mind-body-spirit with a sonic tune-up. In this private session we will come together in my sanctuary space and sink into deep relaxation with multi-dimensional healing tones. I use many instruments, such as planetary gongs, crystal singing bowls, Tibetan singing bowls, drums, rattles, chimes, pyramids, nature sounds, tuning forks and voice. There is nothing to do but show up and receive. Sound healing is an ancient practice that transmits vibrational patterns to entrain the body's frequencies into a more coherent state, transmuting those that are not in our highest health. Healing can occur on a cellular level: structuring internal waters, moving stagnant energy, balancing brain hemispheres, aligning chakra centers, calming anxiety, quieting the monkey mind - all providing better sleep and more vitality. We enter into a journey deep within and a state of awareness that lifts resistance to healing that we might be subconsciously carrying. As I play, I integrate loving intention, reiki healing energy and light language. The session will close with warm tea to ground you. You'll leave feeling recalibrated, rejuvenated and blissed out. It's truly a unique and powerful experience. Dates / times are flexible, so if you'd like to adjust the time or request a date that you don't see here, I may be able to accommodate.
