Dream Life Trip to Sayulita
activities
-
surfing
This trip is perfect for girls wanting to get into surfing & interested in living the surfer lifestyle!
You don’t have to have any experience- we’ll be doing surf lessons so you can improve your skills. However, you should be confident in the ocean, swimming and have an independent mindset when it comes to surfing! (even when surfing in a group with an instructor- surfing is an individual activity and you have to be able to take responsibility for yourself)
Already a confident surfer? All the breaks we’ll be surfing at are suitable for beginner-advanced long boarding - we’ll be surfing at Amy’s favorite longboarding surf break!
-
career mentorship
Feeling stuck in life and not sure how to live your dream life while having a career you’re proud of?
This trip will involve both group sessions and one-on-one tailored coaching (before, during, and after the trip) to help you achieve your individual life goals.
Come away from this trip will a clear goal for your future.
Topics we cover: building an e-commerce brand, monetizing social media, working as a freelancer, taxes and visas for working/living abroad, and more!
-
yoga
Nourish your body, mind, and spirit with yoga classes. Yoga has been fundamental in my personal development. It helps me get grounded, feel present, and practice mindfulness in my body and brain!
-
sisterhood
Participants on trip will be carefully chosen to curate a supportive friend group of likeminded women, that will last far beyond the week of the trip!
Nothing is more sacred to me than sisterhood. I would be nowhere without my incredible female friend group - we support each other, encourage each other to be our best selves, love each other, laugh together, and share similar life goals. We all deserve a friend group of women who support each other, love each other, and want to bring each other up, instead of compete with one another.

Absolutely! As a 26-year-old who has lived here alone for almost 4 years, I can honestly say I feel super safe! The community is really welcoming, and I personally walk around alone, day or night, with a bag that often has a full wallet, my phone, camera and laptop! Just like any place, it’s good to stay aware of your surroundings, but overall, I think you’ll feel right at home here. Can’t wait for you to experience all the magic of Sayulita!
-
This Dream Life Trip only takes 6 girls/week! We want it to be an intimate "friend group" vibe, and not a super chaotic group trip environment. We find that 6 is the perfect number to have a fun, cohesive group for the week!

I am currently based in Sayulita full-time, running my brand Save Our Surf, doing content creation, and now run Dream Life Trips.

WHY DREAM LIFE TRIPS?
Dream Life Trips are week-long surf/yoga trips in Sayulita Mexico- designed for women who are looking to live their ‘dream life’, but aren’t sure where to start. These trips are curated to give participants both the immersive experience, and the tools for the future to live an unconventional life on your own terms.
This trip is for women who feel called to a different future for themselves than what society has deemed ‘normal’ - whether that’s moving abroad, working a job that fulfills you, surfing everyday, achieving an ideal work-life balance, and escaping the traditional expectations of what we are told we are ‘supposed’ to do with our lives. Each week, we bring together 6 likeminded women to experience a life-changing week in Sayulita Mexico.
Dream Life isn’t an escape from your normal life- it’s a week to show you that this ‘dream lifestyle’ can be your life!
About Sayulita: What was once a quaint fishing village on the Pacific coast of Nayarit has become a bustling, hippie surf town attracting surfers, yoga, and digital nomads in search of good waves, likeminded community, and an alternative way of living.
Sayulita is known as a “Pueblo Mágico” aka Magic Town!
Travelers call it “Stayulita” because you’ll visit and never want to leave!
DREAM LIFE TRIPS LOCATION:
sayulita, mx
GETTING HERE: Fly into the PVR Airport.
Sayulita is only a 45 minute drive from Puerto Vallarta (PVR airport), which has great direct flights from all over Canada and the USA!
