Nordic retreats

Ojo Caliente Hot Springs

Since it’ll be several more weeks before I can count on greening grass, blooming trees and mild air, a long weekend getaway can lift my attitude and help sustain my patience. My fantasies tend toward a beach retreat in the Maldives or a week at a fancy spa in the desert somewhere. But when times are tight, even the most avid travelers may need to scale down. I recommend these three affordable eco-friendly getaways that can nurture both you and the earth at the same time. Book a weekend retreat, refresh your memory on eco-friendly travel tips, and your spring break can sustain both your sanity and the environment.
