Cara Schuster, Tesoro

Tesoro is a culmination of brands and projects I have worked on in the last two years since landing in the field of tourism. I created it out of desire to share the importance and healing benefits of bees and ecology with tourists. The purpose is to demonstrate our own innate ability to find connection and healing with self through the hands on magic and guidance that honeybees have provided since the ancient time of humanity. My intended outcome is to work with bee shamans and retreat leaders to facilitate retreats abroad, in addition to rooting in with tourists in Panamá at our Finca Tesoro location. My approach to this project was not academic, but intuitive.
