If you're in need of a respite... a safe, warm place to rest and reconnect to your Self, we get it. Sometimes we need sun, warmth, the comfort of friends (and puppies) to heal what ails us. You do not need to go through this alone.
👉 This is what Krista and Ben had to say about their stay earlier this week "I have stayed in many Airbnbs around the world and I can easily say Eli and Joseph's place is by far my favorite! The suite is gorgeous in such a beautiful location, super clean and in a very walkable area.
The best part for us though was getting to meet Eli and Joseph. They are AMAZING human beings with such generous spirits. An added (surprise) bonus for me as a Deaf person who uses sign language was to find out upon arrival that Joseph is a signer!
I would recommend their place a thousand times over and stay there again when we return to San Miguel de Allende.
Thank you for your generous hospitality and making our trip so beautiful!" Krista and Ben, Salem, OR

Thank you for your kind reviews of our home! We LOVE what we do!

A review from earlier this month:

"We had a fantastic stay at Eli and Joseph’s place! The home was absolutely wonderful—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up for guests. Eli and Joseph were incredibly proactive and responsive throughout our visit, always quick to answer questions and offer help. They also provided us with a ton of great recommendations that made exploring the area so much easier and more enjoyable.

The location is conveniently close to downtown, which was perfect for our plans. That said, we’d recommend taking an Uber to get around, as it made things much smoother. Thanks again, Eli and Joseph, for being such attentive and welcoming hosts. We’d definitely stay here again!" —Diego, Houston, Texas

One of our biggest pleasures in life is sharing our home with others—meeting, connecting and being inspired by those who find their way to our doorstep.

Grateful for this recent review...

"I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend my birthday! This place was gorgeous, clean, cozy and relaxing. It was the perfect treat and they were so kind to make me feel special on the day. Eli and Joseph are such lovely humans and I can't wait to come back soon. They were very responsive, gave great recommendations and went above and beyond! Thank you both for an unforgettable start to my new year and I'll be back before you know it! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" — Christabel, Austin, TX

We have had a record number of reservations this week (and it's only Tuesday).

If you're in need of rest and rejuvenation, please book sooner than later. We would love to host you here.

And we're grateful to this week's guest, who said:

"Joseph and Eli were so kind, very accommodating, and shared great recommendations. They even left a welcome note along with fresh fruit and oatmeal - I always appreciate these kind of gestures. I loved everything about this Airbnb 😃 the decor was fun, the space was clean and peaceful.

The home was close enough to walk to the center of town but also in an amazing location to see other places like the botanical gardens and the hot springs at La Gruta. My stay was short but I can’t wait to visit again. Highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone traveling to San Miguel!!" — Christine, Utah

With all that's happening in the world... do you wish there was something YOU could do make a difference? It can all seem so overwhelming, yet...

What if I told you that the greatest impact you can make is already inside of you? Yep. It's Your Story.

Maybe you've been through a difficult challenge or health scare and lived to tell about it. Or perhaps you found true love after a profound loss. Maybe something remarkable happened to you that changed your entire view about life...

Sharing your story with others who may be experiencing something similar, can be incredibly healing and inspiring - both for you and your audience. Don't let your story remain untold! When sharing it with others, you can make a huge difference in people's lives!

I want to invite you to join Joseph Bennett and me for a free Masterclass where we'll explore the idea of HOW to craft a compelling story that changes lives. It will give you a taste of the magic that's inside our 5-week online program, starting in January. (No pressure to join. Just a beautiful experience!)

For now, you will participate in this ONLINE writing workshop (yes, even if you're not a writer!) and find out HOW to discover that gem of a story that can change lives, and how to structure it so that it creates impact and engagement.

You can join us from your home. It's not a boring webinar; it's a beautiful, LIVE mini-workshop online (there will not be recorded replays.)

So, get your mind distracted from politics for just a bit, and focus on what good YOU can bring to make a positive difference in the world.

This coming SATURDAY, NOV 2 - 11:30 am Pacific, 12:30 pm SMA time, 2:30 pm Eastern. All details in first comment below.
Get ready for a beautiful, heartfelt experience! We look forward to including you! ❤

For as long as there have been human on this earth, there have been stories.

Our ancestors sat beside one another in caves and 'round the fire telling tales... which means you and I are part of a long, long lineage of storytellers!

About my workshop, 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑨𝒓𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝑭𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒅 𝑻𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔: "Come on a journey where everyday items become catalysts for inspiration and creativity. Whether it’s a weathered seashell, a vintage key, or a forgotten parking ticket, each object holds a tale waiting to be told. Through a playful and open-minded perspective, participants will learn to transform mundane items into powerful narrative tools."
