Hi, I’m Kiara Vincent!

I’m so excited to share a little bit about myself with you. For me, life is all about living in alignment with God’s purpose and embracing the beauty of the journey He’s designed for us. My lifestyle is centered on faith, gratitude, and finding joy in the little things, whether it’s through daily moments of worship, self-care, or exploring new adventures with friends and loved ones.

One of the greatest blessings in life is the opportunity to connect with others who share the same values and passions. That’s why I’m inviting you to join me on an unforgettable trip to Costa Rica! Let’s explore the lush landscapes, enjoy the vibrant culture, and spend time in nature – all while deepening our connections with God and each other.

I can’t wait to share this amazing experience with all of you. Let’s live life fully, with faith and love leading the way.

Costa Rica > Soulful Trails in Costa Rica with Kiara

This isn't any holiday getaway. It is a sincere invitation to connect deeply — with nature, with faith, and with a community of like-hearted people. Look forward to hiking through the lush rainforest to the breathtaking La Fortuna Waterfall, where we’ll pause for prayer at the top. We’ll share meaningful Bible study sessions under the stars on peaceful evenings, creating space for honest conversations and spiritual growth. The adventure takes us on an ATV ride through forest trails, a visit to the Maleku indigenous village to learn about their traditions, and a hands-on cooking class with a local family by the river. Every moment, from optional horseback riding around Arenal Volcano to relaxing free time for connection and rest, is designed to inspire your spirit, strengthen your faith, and build lasting bonds as we explore Costa Rica’s breathtaking landscapes together.
