Why Travel With Marta?
A collection of adventures that are made to inspire you to step outside of your comfort zone safely and have a once in a lifetime experience. Marta invites you to join her on one of her intimate adventures, or empower you to take one of your own.
In 2004, Marta began her internal journey of self-discovery by facing her fear of flying, stepping on a plane, jetting off overseas to join a volunteer project. She was 23 years old, heartbroken from a recent loss, and terrified.
Her first solo adventure was a tomb excavation in the South of Sicily for a month where the world opened her eyes to a new way of living. She began to heal her heart, and see that the world was bigger than her problems, and full of people to learn from. After that experience, she was hooked going on another adventure, and another. Everything from helping to rebuild a 10th century castle in France, sea turtle preservation in Costa Rica, scuba diving to save reefs and restoring housing for the impoverished in Portugal, Dolphin and whale preservation studies in Italy, and diving for the lost treasure of the Atocha. Whatever called to her, Marta was hooked on traveling with meaning and specifically traveling alone to meet different cultures, people and rediscover different parts of herself.
Explorative Travel is one of the four pillars of Marta’s recovery of self after loss, and to travel within is the ultimate journey of life. Marta loves helping others push past that fear of the unknown and turn towards new adventures after loss. She believes in the power of stepping outside of your comfort zone and discovering the world to get a fresh perspective.
Join one of her planned trips, book a call with her, or rent your own boat. She has you covered if you feeling that call to move and explore.

Elevate your self-love.

We will be having our experience on the sacred grounds of this beautiful property of (37 acres) on the slopes of Mount Etna that offers olive groves, forest, and traditional drywall terraces for a kind of peace unlike any other.
