574		<strong>A better writer and human.</strong> This retreat changed the trajectory of my entire life. What might be a bold statement, it's the truth. I chose the Italy retreat for the location, location, location and the chance to learn from accomplished writers. You won't be disappointed by the views, the peace, the food, the company. The best part, aside from location and Scott/Lisa, was the community built with the other participants. I now have lifelong real writer friends all over the world. I learned that I write better together.
575I learned where my strengths lie and where I need additional support. I've reworked my entire book and am even going back to get my MFA in CNF. All at the young age of 52. That's a direct result of this experience.</div>

The location (Il Gelso in Tuscany) was FABULOUS--quiet, spacious, comfortable, private; the food by Chef Sardo was out of this world, the company and camaraderie stellar. I will go again.

We spurred each other on, supported by the expert guidance of the staff, Lisa, Scott and Tim, who made the experience seamless. The meals were delicious and Khalil and Hayley contributed great energy to the group. We have formed an ongoing writers group and<strong> lasting friendships.</strong> I will definitely do it again.</div>

605    <div class="wae-text">Write Away Europe’s writing retreat in France has truly been everything I could ever have dreamed of! I was very nervous to attend, and yet everything about the experience was just so deeply wonderful — I can’t gush enough. 
606		<strong>I left the chateau so deeply inspired, motivated and overwhelmed with gratitude.</strong> I spent my days in the company of wonderful writers and editors who went above and beyond with their mentoring. There was the perfect mix of learning and discussions, mixed with round table discussions and long stretches of time to be able to write or do whatever felt inspiring for you!<br> 
607I would write by the pool, in the gardens or in the sunroom for hours and hours, and then would revel in the wholesomeness of running in the fields and swinging in trees with new friends, all topped off with 
608		<strong>evenings laughing over incredible food and wine.</strong> This experience enriched my life in ways I could never have anticipated. Above all, I have managed to write a mammoth amount of quality words, and have true belief that this novel will soon be finished! Thank you, thank you, thank you for all the kindness, the thoughtful feedback and all of the fun! My heart is so full.</div>

630    <div class="wae-text">A writer's retreat in a French chateau with talented and supportive facilitators, and other inspired writers while wined and dined with private chefs? Yes, please! It all sounds great on paper but it's<strong> even better in person.</strong> I was looking for a way to integrate more writing into my life and nurture an idea I had for a novel. Not only did I find that, but I also learned so much, met the most wonderful people, who will hopefully remain friends for life. It was the most beautiful and inspired energy which I will cherish and carry forward as motivation to keep writing. The retreat was very well organized and structured, with enough time to learn, write on your own and socialize with interesting, diverse and talented writers all in different stages of their writing journey. The 
631		<strong>facilitators give you tools to not only breakthrough and learn, but to continue writing when you return home.
632		</strong>It was an amazing experience to invest in myself and in my writing. If you're looking for the same for yourself, this retreat will overdeliver.</div>

648		<strong>every single element of it being completely perfect</strong>.<br>The structure of each day was so fitting, and really worked well for me. The women at the table were on another level of brilliant and I will honestly cherish the relationships I built that weekend for my entire life.<br> Then there’s the setting, which was so stunning it’s made me move my entire desk situation at home so I can sit and stare out over my (not so brilliant) vista to help aid my writing. I just have to say such a massive thank you, and a huge congratulations on

We were a group of eight, and immediately bonded over our love of books, writing, and the amazing food prepared by two chefs. Scott (writer) and Lisa (editor) were not only wonderful hosts, but worked hard with each individual to ensure our writing projects, ranging from poetry to memoir and fiction, were developed over the course of the week through their guidance and the feedback of the group. It was one of the more expensive writing retreats available, but I feel it was worth every penny.</div>

732    <div class="wae-text">I recently had the privilege of attending the Write Away Europe retreat in France. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the stunning setting and the warm, welcoming atmosphere…. I couldn't have asked for better 
733		<strong>nourishment to fuel my creative energies! </strong>Speaking of setting, the picturesque location of the retreat was like something out of a storybook. <br>The organizers and instructors of the retreat were truly exceptional. They were not only passionate about writing but also dedicated to helping each participant enhance their skills. Through insightful morning workshops and inspiring group discussions, they guided us towards unlocking our full potential as writers. One of the most rewarding aspects of the retreat was the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals. I met a diverse group of talented writers, all with different backgrounds and perspectives.<br> The camaraderie and creative exchange were truly enriching, as we shared ideas, provided feedback, and supported one another on our writing journeys. These newfound friendships will undoubtedly continue to inspire and motivate me long after the retreat. Overall, my experience at <strong>the Write Away Europe retreat was nothing short of extraordinary.</strong> I had an absolutely fantastic time, and I can't emphasize enough the positive impact it had on my writing skills and personal growth.</strong>.</div>

740    <div class="wae-text">I recently attended a Write Away Europe writing retreat on the Greek island of Hydra, which was a 
741		<strong>fantastic experience from start to finish.</strong> The communication with Lisa was clear and friendly, making booking a breeze.<br> The retreat was held in a welcoming, family-run hotel with spotless rooms and a buffet breakfast on a shady terrace. The retreat’s structure fostered creativity and sharing, starting with morning discussions on writing theory and our individual projects, followed by afternoons free for writing or exploring, and ending with reflective evening sessions.<br>Lisa and Scott, the facilitators, were the heart of the retreat. 
742		<strong>They brought out the best in each of us, creating a supportive and encouraging environment.</strong> Dinners at local restaurants were great fun, hearty and satisfying, and I left inspired by the picturesque setting, the expert mentoring, and the diverse genres of the writers. I highly recommend Write Away Europe’s retreats for anyone hoping to enjoy and improve their writing skills.</div>
