Surrounded by the Indian Ocean and built on coral rock, this 14th-century Swahili village is a world unto itself.

By writing, do you mean writing for this website (or others) or writing a book?
hmmmm we’ve been dabbling with idea of a book but only if you promise to buy a copy!
What kind of artist residencies do they offer?
Roni, this place would be amazing for your painting! The residencies focus more on printmaking and tapestry but they have a lovely work space that you should get access to and then the apartments would be great as a painting space too. This place has such a unique and beautiful vibe, that’s where the inspiration comes in to play! more info here:
