Lovely Lesotho

Maliba Lodge, Lesotho

Sometimes you just have to get in your car and drive to the middle of nowhere.

I call it, “Refreshing your soul.” And it’s super important to prevent burnouts, meltdowns, and headlines that read, “Wife locks family and dog in the dungeon for two years.”

To your brain, being outside is the equivalent of a Bloody Mary for a hangover. Effective and instant! Getting out of your space helps you to get out of your head and gain some new insight or perspective.

Or, “I just need a flippen break!” is good enough reason to run to the mountains, literally. Enter…..The Maluti mountains.

A road trip through lovely Lesotho, helped me to silence all the crazies inside my head (and there are a few, believe me). The salt of the earth humans, going about their uncomplicated daily lives has a calming effect on one’s mind. It gives you a, “You will be fine.” feeling.

So before you loose you shit…REFRESH YOUR SOUL!!!
