Concentric Travel Avis 7

I did two great workshops, one for woodturning and one for leatherworking. Overall pretty smooth process, and Lauren was very helpful in shifting things around to make it work.

Lauren was so helpful in finding the perfect Leather workshop in Italy based on my skill level. She went over and beyond with the booking process, communication with the client which made it easy and secure.

I traveled from San Francisco and must say it was all I imagined and more. I was placed with Stefano Parrini, a master! I took a 3 day brief case workshop learning dying techniques, pattern making and baseball stitching all by hand. I stayed in the most beautiful town of Vecchio, it was a short walk to the workshop.

I highly recommend Concentric Travel for all your creative journeys abroad.

Thanks again Lauren!

I loved the photography stitching course in Oaxaca. As a lover of photography I was intrigued by this type of art, where I could combine photography with stitching, from the moment I came across it since I’ve never seen it before. The course instructions were easy to follow and the artist just a wonderful soul. If you want to go home with a special souvenir whether for your own memory or as a gift to a loved one or simply explore a unique, different type of art workshop, I highly recommend this course!

Just had the most amazing experience spending five days in a woodworking workshop in northern Spain. Concentric Travel connected us to this unique and rewarding experience, as well as the most stunning accommodations to return to each night. I’m so thankful we found Concentric Travel!

To say the last 5 days was a dream would be an understatement. Taking a wood working class in Europe has been a dream/goal of mine for over 15 years and Lauren at Concentric Travel made it happen. Isreal made our time not only creative but fun and thought provoking. He is a true artisan and kind hearted human that is fun as all get out. Wish we could turn around and go back tomorrow

The experience of the leather course was overall very good. It was really great to be in such a nice workshop with an exceptionally skilled artisan. We felt that three days was just perfect time to get to know the material a little bit.
We enjoyed the small Tuscany village which offered plenty of restaurants.
All communication with Lauren was easy and handled professionally.

My experience with the 3-day leather crafting course in Tuscany was very good overall. Communication with Lauren was clear and helpful throughout, and the hotel recommendation in Tuscany was excellent. The course itself offered a great introduction to leatherwork, while three days wasn’t quite enough time to fully learn a new skill, it gave me a solid overview of the process and what could be achieved. I would recommend extending the course to at least a week for those who want to leave with a completed product or artwork.

Overall, it was a positive and inspiring experience, and I valued the clear communication throughout.
