Artsy Activities
Do you enjoy participating in activities when you travel? By activities, I mean taking a cooking class or an art class, participating in a workshop, learning a language, or any number of other options.
Opportunities for enjoying activities while you travel abound–from learning about elves in Iceland (yes, there is an elf class you can take in Reykjavik) to participating in an archeology dig.
