Sedona is a magical place filled with supernatural rock formations, adventures fit for adventure seekers of all kinds and an overall sense of serenity and wellness. I headed out on my first solo adventure to Sedona for some very much needed R&R. On the agenda? Ride some horses, take a hot air balloon ride, visit the famed rock formations and indulge myself at the L'Auberge de Sedona. I was in and out in 2.5 days but boy was it an amazing couple of days.

Although Sedona is famed in name, it's actually quite a small town that is nowhere near the usual destinations of Arizona (such as Scottsdale and Phoenix). I flew into Flagstaff (about 40 minutes away from Sedona) and rented a car to get to my destination. Beginning the drive to Sedona, I already knew that I would love it because the road to Sedona consisted of driving through the mountains. I definitely felt like I was transformed into another world of nature and more nature. Since I had such a short amount of time in Sedona, my schedule was jammed pack with activities from the minute that I arrived. First on the list? A Pink jeep tour.
