About us

Welcome to The Dharma Trails, a platform dedicated to inspiring and empowering you to embrace a more sustainable and eco-conscious lifestyle. We are Vivien and Aaron, the passionate duo behind this venture, and we’ve been on this journey now for over 6 years.

As a coastal engineer, Aaron specialises in eco-engineering artificial reefs, specifically surfing, diving, and coastal protection reefs. His expertise has taken him to various corners of the world, where he’s passionately engaged in restoring beautiful beaches and protecting the ocean.

An ocean lover and sustainability advocate, Vivien brings a wealth of experience to The Dharma Trails. Her background in Occupational Therapy and Marketing has equipped her with a unique perspective on sustainable living. She’s actively involved in the non-profit sector, having led disaster relief programs in Madagascar, organized sustainable healthcare events, and developed island-wide cleanup campaigns.

Testimonials

Aaron and Vivien of The Dharma Trails were not only lovely guests, but the content that they created for our hotel was amazing. Not only did the content they create bring in a lot of buzz (hundreds of comments on each photo which they responded to directly) but they exposed lots of new people to our hotel and to Guatemala in general. They also posted a great blog post about us on their ecological travel blog which was beautifully put together and provided a wealth of information. We are so thrilled that we teamed up with them.

Vivien and Aaron were a pleasure to work with, as they are very responsive and attentive. They also captured stunning assets and generated amazing social content that blew away the client and our team. We recommend working with them and would love to work with them again if the opportunity arises.

We worked with The Dharma Trails in June this year (2021) and they provided us with an array of amazing content. Their photos captured the magical essence of our establishment and the social media posts and stories showed a true guest experience. We would highly recommend them to other establishments who are looking for creative content through influencer collaborations.
