What to expect:

Few things inspire creativity as much as travel. Taking a journey opens doors to inner explorations and introduces synchronicity and mystery. This South of France travel and writing experience aims to introduce you to the secrets and mysteries of the area from the Roman arena, gardens, and temples of Nimes to the beauty of the walled city of Aigues Mortes, and on into the Camargues and the town, Les Saintes Maries de la Mer. Legend says that the Marys from biblical times fled across the Mediterranean and landed here.

In the Camargue, you'll have an opportunity to imagine life as a gypsy and explore local symbols like the anchored heart and the area's wild horses. In Aigues Morts, the medieval walled city, we'll explore walls, protection, and secret alcoves with significant symbols hidden away in the shadows. In Nimes, we'll explore the masculine and feminine and what they mean to you. Nimes is known for bullfighting, and the ancient Roman ruins of a temple of Diana, as well as exquisite ancient gardens. You'll have a chance to practice some French, sip wine in cafes, and get your French girl on.

We'll play, explore, and you'll have opportunities that will balance self-guided explorations based on suggested areas to explore, with guided trips to invite you to experience this area of Provence at its fullest. You may want to try horseback riding on the beach, biking on the path to the lighthouse beyond Les Saintes Maries de la Mer, and walks to see the birds and flamingos.

If you're a writer,  you'll have opportunities to sit and sip wine and write at cafes, and benefit from one on one guidance for your project ideas. if you're not a writer, you'll be encouraged to use writing as a way to check in with how you feel and explore your inner life. Feel into what places resonate most with you and what might have surprised you or piqued your curiosity to learn more.
Award-winning author, Debra Moffitt, will be your guide and creative inspiration during the journey. She'll help you to connect more deeply with your intuition, pay attention to your dreams, write in the flow (if you want), and lead you into new territory. Debra's workshops and retreats attract participants from all over the world. The Write Life and other sites rank Debra's writing retreats and travels in their top twenty-five to attend.

South of France - Nimes, Aigues Mortes, Les Saintes Maries de La Mer

Why this area:
"In my many travels, this area holds some of the most intriguing and interesting symbols and secrets. When I lived in Antibes on the French Riviera, I traveled often to this area and each time I learned more about the legends, secrets, and symbols associated with this part of France. It has inspired my writing and I hope it will inspire yours and invite you to discover more about your deepest self." - Debra Moffitt
