Walking and Writing Retreat

Walk the sacred paths of the Camino de Santiago de Compostela and let the serene landscapes of southwest France inspire your writing.

This Writing Retreat is for writers

who always wanted to walk the Camino de Santiago de Compostela

desperate to write without distractions, interruptions or restrictions

who find themselves grappling with writer’s block

are struggling to tap into their creative flow

whose muse seems to have taken an extended vacation

are staring at a blank page, unsure of where to begin or how to proceed

who struggle to carve out dedicated time for writing amidst the chaos of daily responsibilities

Join us in the sunkissed southwest of France where this unique Writing Retreat is an antidote to creative stagnation, offering you a supportive environment where inspiration flows freely, where you’ll reignite your passion for storytelling and rediscover the joy of putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard). Say goodbye to writer’s block and immerse yourself in your writing without the distractions of modern life.

Surrounded by the serene beauty of the French countryside, you’ll cultivate a state of flow where words effortlessly pour onto the page, leading to unprecedented levels of productivity, you’ll gain valuable insights and perspective to propel your writing to new heights and you’ll emerge from the retreat feeling empowered, inspired, and ready to share your story with the world.

We all have a story to tell.

As writers, we are an introspective, often self-critical lot, who would like to make sense of life and if possible, help others to make sense of their lives too, with our writing.

During this unique Walking and Writing retreat, you will have the irresistible opportunity to write, without interruptions and distractions, amongst idyllic surroundings, in this unspoilt and forgotten part of the deepest rural south of France.
