Adventures in Creativity -This site describes a refreshingly different way of journeying in the outdoors. The colourful mandala symbol on the home page probably says it all - if you can read pictures! The uniqueness of the approach described here is the blending of expressive arts and outdoor adventure. It is also a blending of inner and outer journeys, but it would be a mistake to assume that ''arts = inner'' or that ''outdoors = outer''.The descriptions of the courses on offer show a whole variety of rich and natural connections between the traditions of creative arts and outdoor adventure. Paris and Iceland seem to be the perfect locations for these 'odysseys', but the secret for success is probably more to do with leaders having the right blend of experience and understanding of 'outdoor adventure' and 'art therapy'. The site includes a succinct summary of ''What makes our adventure trips unique?'' plus links for further exploration of the mandala, expressive arts therapy and Iceland - where you visit the hole in the ground where Jules Verne's Journey to the Centre of the Earth began. Or you can stay in Paris and join an art therapy study group inspired by Clarissa Pinkola Estés' "Women Who Run With The Wolves".
