FLY Travel Radio Episode 157: Travel and...

MELISSA
About this episode
This feels like perfect timing. Angel Herrera joins me on FLY to discuss travel and healing holidays. We will specifically delve into ayahuasca retreats, where he will teach us all about the plant science behind this medicine, its history, what the experience is like, and how it can change your life path. With his father being a shaman, Angel and his family run a very safe retreat staffed with healthcare workers in the Sacred Valley of Peru. That is all I am going to tell you, you must tune in to learn more. Fascinating stuff. Bring on 2021!

Original broadcast on CIUT 89.5FM and www.ciut.fm. FLY airs every Sunday at 1pm EST. Complete FLY Travel Radio Collection can be head on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/fly-melissa-rodway/tracks.
