Wandering Writers Workshops
Serious Craft. Remarkable Places.
Wandering Writers Workshops creates immersive international creative intensives for people who want more from both their craft and their travels.
These are not retreats.
They are thoughtfully designed, small-cohort workshops that combine expert instruction, cultural immersion, and genre-specific creative development in extraordinary locations around the world.
Founded by anthropologist, writer, and educator Dr. Angela Orlando, Wandering Writers Workshops is built for curious, creative people who want to deepen their artistic practice while engaging meaningfully with place.
Our mission is to combine creative rigor with cultural immersion, helping participants grow through craft, community, place, and perspective.
