Learning to Live Well Through the World
Join Acacia Tree Travels and Rebecca Lindberg, LLC for an immersive journey exploring history, culture, food, and resilience across South Africa and Lesotho.
This journey is designed for travelers seeking more than sightseeing.
Together we will explore the landscapes, history, and food cultures of South Africa and Lesotho while engaging in conversations about resilience, justice, and what it means to live well in the world.
