Everything is Optional
Whether you want to take a backpack and explore, sit in an olive grove, watch the ships roll in and away again or take advantage of our host’s local knowledge. Our writer’s retreats let you decide what is important at what pace suits you.
Facilitated Workshops
Writers are creatures of learning and discovery. We are looking to explore techniques, trends, technology – from the writing method to tips and tricks for production, distribution and marketing. Hosted by experts & special guests.
Peer Networking
In a world where machines are taking over relationships, we provide an environment to build networks and friendships with other writers from around the world. Alumni of our writer’s retreats stay in touch long after the trip is done.
Agistri, Greece
Just one and a half hours from Athens by ferry, Agistri is a quiet, contemplative space that lends itself to writing. Hike through pine forests, explore mostly empty beaches, sample local seafood and finish the night watching the sunset from your room or a funky beach bar.
Our retreats take place in a small, family run, independent hotel with it’s own access to the sea and on-site restaurant.
