Thanks. When it comes to your therapist's trip I got the thought that she perhaps didn't answer much because the trip didn't become the way she expected. Perhaps she or her fellow traveller got sick, the weather was bad or similar.
But nonetheless, I agree it's odd to share at first and then when you asked about it she acted rather dismissive. Did you ever find out more about that trip?

Her response didn’t really impact me, but I did feel that she had dealt with it badly. I think there can be a power issue over a T’s self disclosures.
