You are invited to a Journey Daybook Adventure in Peru

Experience a once-in-a-lifetime adventure to Peru this October 25 – November 2 2007. Bob Todd, owner of World Class Travel in Gainesville, has designed a Journey Daybook Adventure especially for enthusiastic and would-be committed journal keepers! This fabulous trip will extend over 10 days and will take participants to Cuzco, the Sacred Valley, and Machu-Picchu. Stay in a beautiful retreat center and comfortable hotels. You will experience ancient Inca culture and work with children in both an orphanage and at a school. Be inspired to capture what you see, smell, taste, and touch within the pages of your own special journey daybook that you will create and add to day after breathtaking day. There will be hands-on instruction in journal making, regular group review, undisturbed work time, and personal one-on-one attention with two facilitators.

The cost for this Adventure, including airfare, is $2500, and there will be a maximum of 12 places on this adventure to insure that there is adequate personal attention for each participant.

In the past, Journey Daybook retreats have been sponsored aboard ship and in France and in US sites in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Idaho. Join us and be part of this culturally unique retreat where you will want to record every sparkling sensation in your special journal and cherish it for your lifetime!

Beginning of JOURNAL

Having kept my own illustrated journal of several years, in 1997 I began to define my ideas about journal keeping into a process which stresses four elements:
Travel,
Meditation,
Being “in the moment”
Working alone
Several interested friends traveled with me on adventures where we each worked on our journals while I taught basic principles of design, writing, drawing, painting, collage, and bookmaking as applied to travel journals. In 2003, the Journey Daybook non-profit educational corporation was created to formally serve the growing interest in creating journey daybooks by teaching, networking with other professionals, and to using the process with people challenged by health issues.

Adventures have occurred in Florida at St Augustine, Cedar Key, Oklawaha, and Wakulla Spings; at Sapelo Island in Georgia; in Boise, Idaho; aboard ship in Alaska; and in France.
