A four-day creative writing experience, exploring how our lived experiences can become stories. Rewrite your story through creative writing and reflective practice.

Across the four days, you’ll be invited to:

• • explore moments, memories and experiences from your own life
  • use creative writing and reflective practices to look at your story from different perspectives
  • identify stories, themes and ideas that could become something more
  • write, experiment and develop your own material
  • share ideas and reflections with a small group, if you choose

There will be daily Reflective Practice and 1:1 coaching, alongside plenty of unstructured time to write, think, walk, rest and let ideas develop. The aim isn’t to produce a finished piece of writing in four days. It’s to create space to explore your story, find new perspectives and begin to shape what you want to say.

Why come to Mas Pujols?

Because sometimes changing your surroundings changes what you can see.

At Mas Pujols, you get time away from your normal routines, space to think and the freedom to follow your own process. There’s no conference-centre schedule, no pressure to produce and no expectation that everyone works in the same way.

You’ll work from a beautiful rural home in the Catalan countryside, with nature, walks, shared meals and a small group of people who are also here to work on something of their own.

You could do this at home. But you probably wouldn’t experience it in quite the same way.

What do I need to bring?

Something to write on and with, a notebook, pen and laptop. Bring any writing you would like to develop or your ideas and thoughts on your personal life story, or a part of it.  You don’t need to consider yourself a writer. You just need a story you want to explore.

Payment and booking.

The four-day retreat includes accommodation, coaching support, daily reflective practice, half board (breakfast & dinner) and store cupboard essentials for lunch and snacks (excellent local shop and bakery 10mins walk away).

Costs

• Own double room (3 available) 1750€
• Own single room (1 available) 1200€

If you would like to come with a friend and share a room, please get in touch for costs.

• You will need to arrange your own flights which cost around 250€ from UK flying to Barcelona or Girona airport (Barcelona's smaller, easier airport).  

• Optional yoga is available at the venue, for a small charge.

You have your own room and workspace, and a large house with different spaces to work, meet, cook, rest and share.

The aim isn’t to produce a finished piece of writing in three days. It’s to create space to explore your story, find new perspectives and begin to shape what you want to say.

You don’t need to consider yourself a writer. You just need a story you want to explore.

Whether you’ve already explored your story through Rewrite Your Story or you’re joining for the first time, this experience is about taking what you know, what you’ve lived and what you imagine — and beginning to shape what comes next.

A four-day retreat to turn your story and lived experience into something positive.  Whether you want to publish a book, start a business or make a lifestyle change. We will support you to make a plan. You’ll be invited to:

• reflect on where you are now and what you want to change or create

• explore ideas, possibilities and directions for what comes next

• use creative writing and reflective practices to develop your thinking

• turn personal experience into the beginnings of a book, business, project or lifestyle change

• make space to write, experiment and work through ideas

• share thoughts and perspectives with a small group, if you choose

There will be guided planning sessions and 1:1 coaching with Kerry, alongside plenty of unstructured time to write, think, walk, rest and develop your ideas.

The aim isn't to leave with everything figured out. It's to create a clear plan, explore possibilities and take the first steps towards your next chapter.

>> Why come to Mas Pujols?

Because sometimes you need to step outside your usual surroundings to see clearly what you want to do next.

Mas Pujols gives you time to pause, space to think and the freedom to explore new ideas without the demands of everyday life. There’s no rigid programme and no pressure to arrive with all the answers. There are guided sessions with Kerry, time to develop your own ideas and a small group of people who are also thinking about what comes next.

You’ll work from a rural home in the heart of the Catalan countryside, surrounded by nature, with spaces to write and think, shared meals and time to walk, rest and let your ideas take shape.

You could think about your next chapter from home. But being here may give you the space to start seeing it differently.
