If you'd like to study writing in Italy, Bali, Tulum, or Tobago click on the image to look at Stephen and Jade Webber's Writing Immersion programs. The photo here is from a session in beautiful Spannocchia, in Tuscany.
Stephen is a brilliant teacher, and Jade teaches yoga and painting. I've had several students attend, and they all loved the time abroad and wrote a ton. I recommend the Writing Immersion program.
