Trips + tours

 

Tours for writers, readers or general tours

Chris also does workshops in exotic places. If you want to go to Egypt and discover your inner writer while floating down the Nile on a cruise ship (among other things), it can be done. If you'd like to go to Italy and check out literary locales and do writing workshops, you can do that too. If you'd like to go to a tropical island somewhere and sip drinks out of a cocoanut you can do that. If there are other places you want to go contact Chris with your requests. Writing group requests are welcome. Discounts apply for groups.

Next trip: Morocco 2007

You take a tour of beautiful Morocco and, if you wish, have one on one writing consultations on your work. Here are some photos from the 2006 Morocco trip.

Writing tours

This woman was winding silk thread at Bhalil. We later chatted (sign language) to women handmaking silk buttons with it.

While Bhalil was an old and small village, the medina at Fes is large and very complex. Inside is a modern and ancient metropolis. This is taken from the second floor of a 14th century medrassa - from the cell of a long-gone student (although other residents were still there). It took you back to that time and you began to see that the austerity of intellectual life was very important. It was right in the medina - but calm. A place of sanctuary and thought.

A previous trip: Egypt

Go to the place you've always wanted to go: see the pyramids, sail down the Nile, see the side of Egypt you never expected to see, and write away.
