Happy New Year Lifetime Members!

I’m opening up two new trips for you, so fresh that they’re not fully ready but I just couldn’t wait.

By not ready, I just mean you can’t download the brochures yet, but you can check them out on our website and secure your spot with a $500 deposit.

The same wonderful women who run our creativity retreat in the Spring invite you to join them for olive harvest season at the villa, with an enhanced experience for all of the senses!

Shannon Faseler will offer a mini-creativity experience at the Villa, and Jen Vickers (the villa’s owner) will bring you into the olive harvest experience.

In this class we consume what we cook. The gonna will show you how.

We’ll also offer our popular Italian cooking class, go on a truffle hunt, visit other medieval towns (not visited on the Spring trip) and for those who enjoy wine, we’ll enjoy some of the best affordable wines Italy has to offer. Maybe you’ll want to send some home!

You know us…we’re all about the food and the good company!

If you haven’t experienced our Spring trip to the villa, you can’t miss this one!

When was the last time you allowed yourself to connect to your inner child and play with paints?

Here’s what one traveler said about her stay at the villa last year:

❝

The trip to Umbria was truly magical. This trip provided an opportunity to stay in a restored 13th century villa, waking up each morning to extraordinary vistas and exploring five unique towns, each with historical significance. I feel personally enriched by the uniquely curated activities from pasta making, to soaking up the rich ambience of the Italian countryside. I also enjoyed getting to know 15 strangers that became part of my sisterhood.

Dates:

October 31-November 7, 2025

Vietnam

Last year we offered this trip for the first time and let me tell you, we were stunned at how much our travelers just loved it, and each other! 8 of them booked our Day of the Dead trip this year so they could be together, and one has offered to host a reunion in her house in Arizona this Spring!

That’s how we roll…building communities of fun and interesting women, one trip at a time.

The last night of our cruise on Ha Long Bay. What an incredible journey we had together!

There are no words to describe how much fun, how interesting, how relaxing, and how memorable this trip was last year. But here are a few:

Here’s what one of our first-time travelers said about this trip:

❝

OMG this was such a ‘trip for the books’ or trip of a lifetime but I’ve only just begun with this being my first Next Tribe adventure. The accommodations, activities, food, value and most of ALL meeting so many incredible women who I now consider friends. Thank you Next Tribe❤️🇻🇳

On land, in the city of Hanoi, we were caught up in the hustle bustle of Asian street life. But the moments of beauty in the countryside took our breath away.

One of our travelers, enchanted by the view from a rooftop bar in Ninh Ninh.

We have so many great photos from this trip. But they really don’t do it justice.

Our, Miss Pham, knew that early morning would be the best time to catch the water lillies in full bloom as we floated down the stream. Magical.

Dates: November 9-23, 2025

The Roll Out

As Lifetime Members, you’re the first to know about these two trips. Next week, we’ll notify other members that the trip is available. Then we’ll be opening bookings to the public. So if you’re interested, don’t hesitate!

Hugs and thanks to all of you from Morocco, where we just started our first trip here, and the 2026 trip is almost sold out!
