“I learned that hospitality can be simple, it doesn't have to be grand. The best way to show hospitality is to show someone they are genuinely welcome. Cooking a homemade meal and making a beautiful space are some amazing ways to do this.”

“New ideas and convictions were constantly being stirred into my mind, and I was always pondering or processing the events of each day. We were encouraged to think deeply, to allow ourselves to grow and develop in the most beautiful ways. I left inspired.”
