With decades of travel experience and setting up tours and excursions, Christina shares with you the tricks of the trade for creating your own personalized textile tour. Items covered include:
- Book online or through a travel agent?
- Researching textile traditions
- Contacting museums and fiber or textile artists
- Plane, train, or automobile
- Respecting local customs
- Photography do’s and don’ts
This 45-60 minute talk starts with a introduction to the topics above and then goes into a question and answer period.
