The Best Places to Move to As a Writer
Imagine yourself surrounded by tropical forests, or in the centre of a bustling cultural city, typing away and letting your creative processes flow from pen to paper. One of the best things about writing is that it can be done virtually anywhere. Equip yourself with a notebook, pen, or laptop and you can self publish your work in any cityscape or landscape in the world. Infact, some of the most famous writers in history have taken the big step to move to an entirely new location to help inspire their words and creative process. Inspired by them, we have collated below the best places to move as a writer.
Frequented by F Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Edith Wharton and Gertrude Stein, 1920’s Paris was an abundance of creativity, with artists, poets, writers and fashion designers frolicking through the streets. Today, Paris still possesses the hypnotic charm that it did a century ago. And, if you want to follow in the footsteps of these famous writers- why not relocate there this year?
Another famous city, significant for its connotations with dreamers and doers, New York has had a plethora of well-known writers socialise and write within its walls throughout history. Within each corner, publishers and literary agents frequent, ideal for any writer wanting to make it big and get recommended by the New York Times.
It is no secret that Bali has become a tropical hotspot for the younger generation. Perfectly ‘instagrammable’, it has stunning cerulean blue waters, vibrant beach clubs and beautiful emerald rice fields. Though many come here on their travels, Bali has also become a place for many young writers and content creators to move to, simply because the cost of living is so cheap. What’s more, for those who just plan on stopping by, there are plenty of writers retreats and workshops that you can join.
The capital city of Portugal, Lisbon is quickly becoming a trendy city that has stunning historical buildings, sandy beaches, sea views and great art collections. What’s more, Lisbon has a reputation for being ‘open, friendly, and unpretentious’, the perfect setting for any budding writer wanting to solidify their status with the written world.
Capital cities are increasingly becoming mentioned more and more in this blog, but we cannot deny that it equates to having a wealth of opportunities for those artistically minded people. This is the same for Berlin, a city known for its trendy and urban art scene, as well as being affordable to live in, and being famous for having a strong social supportive scene.
