Dear Eco-loggers:
I am currently finishing up a 2-week residency at PLAYA! It has been
fabulous!
The opportunity to commit 2 weeks to uninterrupted thought and connection
to my work has been immensly beneficial (manuscript almost done!!)
I encourage you to consider applying! Did i mention the delicious food!?
Feel free to email me if you have any questions!!
All the best,
Catherine
