San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
Consistently rated as one of the top 10 foreign travel destinations by Condė
Nast Traveler Magazine, San Miguel de Allende has made a name for itself in
writing circles around the world with its quaint, seductive charm. Nestled
in the Sierra Madres 3-1/2 hours north of Mexico City, San Miguel de Allende
was founded in 1542 and declared a national monument in 1926. No ugly modern
development has intruded, hence the allure for writers and artists alike.
Its four-century-old churches, clean-swept cobblestone streets and shady,
peaceful jardin are reminiscent of European ambiance -- stunning, cultured
and urbane.
Accommodations
Workshops take place in gorgeous, privately-owned villas with bougainvillea-filled
gardens, where all-inclusive guests stay. Workshop-only students, for an additional
fee, may participate in the extra activities such as yoga classes, cooking
classes, salsa dancing and more.
Testimonials
"The moment I arrived at the hacienda, a GORGEOUS private home where we
were going to be writing everyday, my heart did a flip of excitement. But
THEN I met my fellow students, people from all over the country who were
genuinely talented writers with stories that deserved to be told, and I knew
that it was going to be an incredible week! But NOTHING prepared for me for
the level of inspiration I would feel. I left for home with three newly written
stories in my pocket, and my heart was on fire. I had fallen totally in love
with my class, my teacher, and with San Miguel."
