"I am surprised how poorly I have slept since arriving home, particularly given that I had a few nights in Singapore. I think my mind is still spinning from the wonderful adventure that I was able to participate in.

Many thanks to the Equal Health able team, for all the hard work put into allowing us to just make sure we were at the bus on time (?!) and not having to worry about all the normal concerns that generally are part of travelling in a foreign land.

I can't wait to do it all again and I have a couple of doctors interested too.

How lucky were we with our team members, particularly being given the opportunity to do yoga, Pilates and, of course, your boot camp - but really, they all made a big difference, I think, physically and mentally. Having a different focus, even just for ¾ hour, helps 'break the ice' and cement friendships and certainly keeps one in better shape.

Once again, thank you."

"I have safely made it back to Perth after touring Delhi, Agra and Jaipur plus a bit of a stroll through the Himalayas to Everest Base Camp.

I want you to know how much I enjoyed my 'life changing experience'. Words escape me at the present time to be able to describe the past six weeks of my life.

Thanks for the opportunity to be a part of Equal Health."
