Praise for Janet Hulstrand's Teaching
Writing from the Heart in Champagne
"A wonderful week of writing, in a charming and welcoming French village."
"You were exactly how I had hoped you'd be--full of life, and writings and ideas and a kind of moral
courage which is rare....that first dinner we had together made me know that I'd found the right person, the right place,
the right enthusiasm to plug on with delight."
"The setting, style, and sequencing of Janet Hulstrand's Writing
from the Heart in Essoyes far exceeds any stateside offering I've ever encountered. Go to Essoyes to become, at once,
quieted and refreshed, inspired by your own thoughts, and those of others. Words spill forth like champagne--go, just
go, to Essoyes--even if you've never written. You will, there!"
Paris Through the Eyes of Travellers
"I enjoyed the class very much and found your professional perspective refreshing.
I feel I learned a great deal in this class about literature, but also about life. Thank you for the experience!"
"Thank you for helping to make my experience so entirely life-changing."
"Our visit to an artist's studio blew my mind! Weeks later
I am still thinking about it."
"Thank
you for offering such a course. It whet my appetite for further travel. My mind is constantly at work thinking of the new
and exciting places I can visit in the future, including several return trips to France."
"I wanted to
thank you for the inspiring words you left us with....The experience was life-changing and so needed. Thank you for
the opportunity to discuss important topics, meet great people, and discover new places."
"Reading about
Paris while living there was an extraordinary experience...How meaningful to read about Paris while visiting it, and not from
tourist guides, but from books that are written with a heart and soul."
"Your comments [on my writing] were exactly what I needed to hear. Thank
you so much for sharing your expertise so generously."
"Thank you for being my professor and lighting up my future..."
"...without contest, the greatest summer of my
life. I will always carry the memories with me."
Hawaii: Island Paradise Where East and West Meet
"I had a wonderful experience in
Hawaii. Thanks to you I have the vocabulary and the knowledge to understand all of the aloha I've felt. I feel like I
can share the history of Hawaii with everyone I meet. Thank you for exposing me to a world of island culture I would have
never known otherwise!"
"I am thankful to you for inspiring
me to write. Through writing my memories of the 'spirit of aloha' have not been forgotten."
