This gives you the freedom to stay with friends or a 5 star hotel, choose what to eat, and perhaps add on a workshop to other travel itineraries. In some workshops we may rent out a house or a villa and have a food kitty with the cost shared between the group. On others you look after your own accommodation food and logistics.
