Creating Unique Experiences Since 2003

At Where You Want To Be, we are passionate about creating unforgettable team-building and wellness experiences that inspire, encourage, and help you live your best life. Founded in 2003 by Marc and Darlynne Menkin, we bring people together through fitness hikes, bike rides to secret spots, health & wellness speaker series, and innovative group experiences. Whether you’re a corporate group looking to improve collaboration or a wellness-focused group seeking rejuvenation, we have something for everyone.

Exclusive Adventures, Crafted by Locals

Our mission is simple: to create one-of-a-kind San Diego adventures that highlight hidden gems. Every program is personally crafted by our in-house Design Team from start to finish, ensuring clients receive a unique and original experience. From our Secret San Diego VIP Tours and Charity Give-Back Opportunities to our Award winning Scavenger Hunts, each experience embodies the true spirit of Aloha.

What is ALOHA?

Our owner, Darlynne Reyes Menkin, has family roots in Hawaii. In both their personal and professional lives, Darlynne and Marc make it a priority to embrace the ‘Aloha Spirit’ in everything they do. While many recognize Aloha as a Hawaiian greeting, it holds much deeper significance as it  represents love, affection, peace, compassion, and mercy. We integrate the essence of Aloha into all our programs, ensuring our events and experiences leave a lasting impact. When guests are with us, our hope is that they’ll say “I’m exactly where I want to be.”

Speaker Series with Darlynne Menkin

At Where You Want To Be, we promote physical and mental wellness through our Wellness Speaker Series, designed to engage and refresh participants. Created and facilitated by Darlynne Menkin, these sessions address mindfulness, health, leadership, and personal growth. Whether you’re organizing a conference or prioritizing employee health, our Wellness Speaker Series can enhance your organization’s culture and foster positive change.

Motivate Your Team with Outdoor Fun

High-functioning teams thrive when they’re energized, engaged, and connected. That’s why we believe in getting your team outside, moving and having fun! Our Fitness Walks take you through scenic San Diego neighborhoods, while our relaxing bike rides let you explore coastal communities and breathtaking views. Plus, our immersive VIP experiences venture off the beaten path, showing you hidden gems that only locals know about. It’s the perfect mix of adventure, teamwork, and rejuvenation!
