Winter Getaway

Wellness Loud
About this episode

Our stories today take us away to a snowy mountainside and a cabin tucked into the trees. We’ll follow the bookseller as she rides the funicular and settles in at her cabin, then treks out to the chalet for tea and stunning views in parts one and two of Winter Getaway. Then, in part three, we’ll let Chef take over the narrative as they prepare a simple bowl of something warm and comforting to share in their kitchen.
