We’ve become so dependent on phones do we even know how to read maps any more? And when was the last time you made your own map? In this FieldTrip we’ll be getting lost and making your own hand-drawn maps. (NO artistic ability required.)
In this edition of the FieldTrip, we’ll be exploring the idea of looking ahead in uncertain times through a creative lens.
Participants should bring paper and their favorite pen (if you have a ballpoint pen, markers, or colored pencils bring those too). Also, BRING A BANANA (or orange or lemon) and paper napkin for some less traditional maps. :)
Let’s make maps + have some FUN!
Anne Ditmeyer is a creative coach and workshop facilitator based in Paris, France. She regularly runs her workshops Write Your Own Rules and Mapping Your Path. She’s been exploring the world and the intersection between travel and design through Prêt à Voyager since 2007 where her mantra is “travel is not about where you go, but how you see the world.”
You can find her on social @pretavoyager.
This is a more traditional format where participants absorb information through presentations and talks.
This FieldTrip will not be recorded.

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.
Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.
Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going!
Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.
We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things. Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.
It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
