Originally a Maya village known as Nohcacab ("the great place of good land"), it stands out today for deeply preserving Maya heritage, traditions, and the Yucatec Maya language in the daily lives of its residents.

Meet Your Guide

Stephanie Schroeder

I created Creative Nature to offer guided wellness experiences through intimate, immersive, and interactive discovery on an exploratory journey to the self.

After standing in ceremony deep within the jungles of the Yucatan, my inner voice finally became loud enough to hear.

I remembered my true power—my confidence, my courage, and my wild, untamed strength.

Over the span of my life, Mexico has been a part of my heart!

I want to share these experiences with you!
