This year's creative adventure took me to another mecca of color and pattern, this time only a three hour flight away. Even the name, "Oaxaca" has entranced me with visions of exotic crafts and colorful art. When I saw the Ace Camp tour of Oaxacan weavers and natural dyes, I instantly booked the vibrant adventure.
Visiting Teotitlan, a small weaving village outside of Oaxaca, and studying the craft of a third generation weaver enchanted me. Seeing the artful designs - and the painstaking process of weaving a rug, preparing the yarn and all the steps in between - truly showcased the works of art.
