A travel storytelling intensive
Travel changes us. But without intention, most of those experiences fade into photos, memories, and unfinished journal pages.
This workshop offers a structured, supportive process for transforming travel into story.
Over five full days, participants move through the full storytelling arc:
• Noticing meaningful moments in place
• Exploring narrative structure and voice
• Drafting and revising in real time
• Preparing a short story for sharing
This is not a retreat and not a tour. It is a guided, beginner-friendly creative intensive rooted in place, reflection, and craft.
