The Writing & Poetry Retreat in India with Aimee Nezhukumatathil
June 1, 2027 – June 11, 2027
Travel is a tonic for poets and writers. Travel opens our boundaries. It questions ways of being we assume are universal and reveals new ways of thinking.
Poets and Writers from the world have travelled to India for centuries. Rudyard Kipling, Herman Hesse, Somerset Maugham, Octavio Paz, J D Salinger, Leonard Cohen have all spent time in India, and it has influenced their writing. India is also the birthplace of luminous writers like Arundhati Roy, Salman Rushdie and – surprise – George Orwell.
Aimee Nezhukumatathil (detailed profile shared below) will lead this retreat in the Himalayas in June 2027. She was here in June 2026, and loved it so much that she’s coming back within a year.
India is wonderfully contradictory. It is ancient and mystic, yet modern and throbbing. Scary and intimidating, yet welcoming and calming.
This retreat is a safe, curated India experience designed for writers.
(Click here to know what the 2026 participants had to say)
The retreat begins with a warm welcome for each participating writer at Delhi International Airport. We explore parts of Delhi and visit the Taj Mahal, but we spend most of our time up in the mountains, writing. Our home in the mountains is the Himalayan Writing Retreat, which is deeply integrated into the local ecosystem. The Himalayan Writing Retreat supports the Chirag School (for under-privileged kids) and hosts a non-fiction fellowship, a French writing residency, and another residency for emerging south Asian writers. You can read what CN Traveller says about the retreat here.
We’ve curated everything from the Himalayan excursions to the Delhi tour. We’ve sampled the food everywhere, and designed the menu to ensure a great mix of local and international cuisines. Our welcome dinner is at the Bukhara, which is, amongst others, particularly popular with US presidents. While the Presidents can vary in how palatable they are, the food at the Bukhara always stays true to its values.
We take care of every such detail so that you can focus on your writing. It is no wonder writers from the world over keep coming – this is our 12th international retreat.
You land in Delhi International airport and then travel to the Himalayas. All stays are pre-arranged, all transfers are by private cars or First Class trains. The serenity of the rural Himalayas is a stark contrast to busy, honking urban India. In the mountains, you continue to discover a sliver of India everyday, but at a relaxed, unhurried pace. You do yoga every morning, and spend many hours free-writing in the halo of Himalayan peaks which dwarf Mt. McKinley.
This is the second retreat Aimee Nezhukumatathil will lead in the Himalayas. In addition to group sessions, every participant also gets personal feedback through one-on-one sessions with Aimee.

Detailed Program
We land at Delhi International Airport and then head up to the Himalayas. All stays and transfers are pre-arranged. The serenity of the rural Himalayas is a stark contrast to the noise and bustle of Delhi. In the mountains, we continue to discover a sliver of India every day, but at a relaxed, unhurried pace. Up here, you write in the halo of Himalayan peaks – five thousand feet taller than Denali. If you have questions about India, click here to read our India travel FAQs.
Program
To be as flexible as possible to the needs of all participants at all levels of experience, each class session will be primarily generative. That is, the emphasis will be on learning new writing techniques and experiencing new prompts for non-fiction or poetry. You are free to work in either genre or to explore both! Each participant will have a chance to share their writing in class during each session. The last hour of the workshop will involve further discussion and more generative writing exercises on craft or form. Craft elements most likely to be touched upon include pacing, character development, point of view, openings/closings, the use of detail and setting, summary vs. scene concerns, and the poetry forms of the haibun, abecedarian, and epistle, among others.
The daily program is outlined below. In addition, we’ll have one-hour one-on-ones with Aimee in which participants can share an outline or synopsis, questions about a particular project, and pages to be read and discussed within the hour itself.
Our last day will be a fun generative session on food writing for all experience levels, using local fruits with writing prompts that you can use long after the retreat is over. Overall, the program hopes to allow for as much individual writing time as possible while also getting feedback and ideas about craft that inspire you to write even more.
Day 1, June 1 Tuesday
Welcome! Arrive at Delhi Airport any time after noon on the 1st of June. One of the Team members from the Himalayan Writing Retreat (we’ll share these details before your arrival) will meet you at the airport and bring you straight to your hotel. Your stay is arranged at the Tree of Life BnB or at Colonels Retreat, amongst Delhi’s top rated.
No class on this day.
Today, we’ll get settled and have an opportunity to get to know one another better. We’ll have a welcome dinner at the iconic Nisaba Restaurant which is famous for its traditional Indian food.
Note: Many international flights land in Delhi at unearthly hours. If your flight gets in before noon, we will still meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel. We’ve also negotiated a great room rate at which you can stay for an extra night. Please confirm your travel itinerary to us at the earliest opportunity so that we can book accordingly.
Day 2, June 2, Wednesday
Off to the Mountains!
We head out early and board the train from New Delhi Railway Station to head towards the Himalayas. We board the Kathgodam Shatabdi Express train and travel First Class to the town of Kathgodam (5 hours and 40 minutes). This is where the mountains start. We transfer to taxis for the last three hours of our travel. Halfway home, we stop for lunch at a great Indian café which also does PIzza. We arrive at The Himalayan Writing Retreat (THWR) in Satkhol Village around 4 PM – our home for the next eight days.
“Jet Lag is for Amateurs” says Dick Clark but it is real, and this train ride is where you might nod off as you chat with a new-found friend.
On the train ride we practice honing our skills of observation and connection to place. We’ll start off with a little fun imagining…an origin story. Think of it as an autobiography that starts in India and ends somewhere in the future. Write a vignette or poem with the opening phrase of: “When I was a _________….” Where the ‘blank’ is a noun found outdoors in India. Ex. rubber tree, tea plant, red garage door, etc. Make sure to be as specific as possible and try to appeal to all five senses. Not merely sight, but hearing, touch, smell, and taste.
The Himalayan Writing Retreat is custom-built for writers. It is built to provide inspiration and to offer a sense of serenity. This niche property has six double-occupancy guest rooms and a full staff to cater to your needs with love and the highest standards of hygiene. The food is tasty, fresh and includes a lot of local cuisine.
We reach the Retreat around 4 PM and have a short session in the late afternoon in which we discuss our plan for the next few days. We will go over workshop/critique etiquette and Aimee will lead you in a generative writing assignment featuring the abecedarian form.

Frequently Asked Questions
“To other countries, I may go as a tourist, but to India, I come as a pilgrim.“
Martin Luther King, Jr.
You’re probably traveling to India for the first time and have many questions you want answers to. We’ve tried to answer some of those here. We’ll also answer specific questions during online info-sessions we have with all participants before your travel.
Q. Do I need a Visa?
A . Citizens from some countries need visas in advance. Travelers from Maldives and Japan can get a visa on arrival. To get more details, please check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_policy_of_India#Visa-free_entry . Citizens of most countries (including UK, USA and Singapore) can obtain an e-visa for their travel. The latest updated information is at https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/tvoa.html .
Q. Okay, so I need a visa. How do I get it?
A. It’s actually pretty simple, as now you can get an e-visa. That means you don’t have to go anywhere in person or stand in Iine. You can apply online, and the visa will come to you in the email. Simply carry a printout of it with you. You can apply for the e-visa here. https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/evisa/tvoa.html
Q. When is the best time to buy my ticket?
A. The sooner you buy your ticket, the better the price you get. If you decide to buy a non-refundable ticket, do so once you have your visa in hand. Sometimes visa processing can take longer than anticipated. And you would not want potential visa related delays messing up your travel budget. So to get the best fare, apply for the visa at the earliest.
Q. Are there any non-stop flights? Should I fly non-stop or take a stopover?
A. A non-stop flight can mean 15 hours on a plane. It’s a very personal call. We’ve always enjoyed a layover at a city like Frankfurt or Istanbul. Amsterdam is a personal favourite for the amazing cheese they sell. But that’s us.
United, Air India and American offer non-stop flights from big cities like Chicago/New York. They’re usually more expensive.
Q. Do I need travel insurance?
A. Yes, you need travel insurance. It is simplest to buy online. You can also use a trusted agent.
Q. What about food and water? Will I get sick?
A. You should only drink bottled water. Never drink tap water, or even brush your teeth with it. We provide for safe bottled water for all your travels. The food you eat should be freshly cooked and from the safest sources. Avoid anything raw or from the street. Avoid uncooked foods like cut fruit or salads. Travelers diarrhea can happen to tourists anywhere and the best way to avoid it is to eat and drink from safe places. In addition, maintain the highest standards of hygiene by frequently washing your hands and so on.
All the places where you will stay or eat with us are very sensitive to the needs of international tourists, and maintain the highest levels of hygiene.
Q. Do I need shots?
A. Yes. Visit your local doctor before your trip and get a round of shots. More detailed information is available here .
Q. What sort of weather should I expect?
A. India is a warm country. Your stay in the plains will be in Delhi. During spring and fall days Delhi is warm and sunny, sometimes hot. Evenings may be comfortable. You can see the climate chart for Delhi here.
The bulk of your time will be spent in the Himalayas in Satkhol village. Satkhol is not on the weather map but you can see weather forecasts for Mukteshwar which is six miles away (and 1000 feet higher). The climate chart for Mukteshwar is here.
The temperature in the Himalayas varies during these seasons. It can go from warm, sunny days to cool evenings and cold nights – colder if it rains. Although fall and spring are not the rainy season, showers can happen so it is best to pack layers. Buildings here do not have heating so you’ll wear warm layers indoors as well.
Q. How should I plan to dress for India?
A. Except for big cities like Delhi, Indians tends to dress conservatively. While men can wear whatever is comfortable for them, women face some challenges.
– Shorts, tank tops and tops that show cleavage – though comfortable for Delhi – are not appropriate for public places or religious monuments
– Short sleeve tops are fine everywhere (bare shoulders/sleeveless tops are okay for Delhi)
– Any lower that is mid calf or longer – tights worn with long tops, capris, trousers, skinny jeans, skirts, dresses – are fine for everywhere
– Most people find keeping a scarf or thin cotton shirt to wear over a top (if it is sheer or figure hugging) and trousers or long dresses handy when travelling around.
It is also best to bring a wide brimmed hat, shades and lots of sunscreen. These will come in handy when dealing with the Delhi sun/heat as well as the bright sunshine of the mountains.
Q. How much money should I carry?
A. Your stay and transfers are all taken care of by us. Credit cards work in urban areas but not in Dilli Haat (where you may go shopping). In the rural Himalayas – where the retreat is – there won’t be too much to buy. Avoid carrying too much cash on you.
Q. What about electrical devices? Will my laptop / phone charger work?
A. The power supply in India is the same as UK and the Middle-east, although the plug points are different. India’s power supply differs from the US. Indian power is 220 volts while the US is 110 volts. Avoid bringing high wattage things like hair dryers, etc. We’ve actually seen stuff like that go “poof” in a cloud of smoke.
Electronic devices such as laptop and phone chargers mostly work with 220 volts. Please read the voltage range given on the devices you plan to carry. If the “input” reads 110-240 volts you’re good. But if the input says “110 volts” only then you may need to buy an adapter or charger for India.
Q. Will there be Wi-fi?
A. The Delhi hotel “Tree of life” has internet connectivity in all rooms. The Himalayan Writing Retreat also has fairly decent broadband, but not in all rooms. We have broadband in most common areas. Our Wi-fi is a 100 Mbps fiber-optic line with an uptime of 95%+.
However, because of our remote location, the occasional outage can happen. A local Jio SIM/ Dongle is a good backup. That can also come in handy in case of the rare event of the power failure for more than 3-4 hours (our two inverters last that long).
Q. Can I get a local mobile phone connection? Will I need one?
A. Your phone company probably offers an international roaming package. They can be expensive but maybe the simplest choice. There are also some other services such as https://www.trabug.com/ but we don’t have any first-hand reports on these yet.
Will you really need one? Since you will mostly be in a group with people you know it is not essential, but it does help if you have one. It can be helpful for coordinating things, and certainly if you like to go exploring on your own.
Q. What should I do when I land in Delhi?
Most flights reach Delhi at a rather unearthly hour. When you exit the airport, someone will be waiting there holding a prominent placard with your name on it. After you link up with the person picking you up, we will request you to give a confirmatory call from the phone of the person receiving you. We will share India contact phone numbers, names and other details with you during the info session. If by any chance you cannot spot your name on the placards, call the contact number we give you.
Q. Do I need to carry any medicines?
If you take specific medicines on an occasional or regular basis, please carry enough to last your entire trip. Medicines are available in Delhi but the brands, salts and dosage might be different from what you are used to. The Himalayan Writing Retreat is located in a rural area. We have doctors at hand but we are 2 1/2 hours away from the nearest emergency room and well stocked medical store. So, it may be wise to carry a basic medical kit (the kind you would carry on a hike). You could include medicines for an upset tummy, travel/motion sickness (if you suffer from it), jet lag (optional), fever, common cold, allergies, aches and pains.
* Please also let us know if you suffer from any food related allergies, or have specific dietary requirements.

Words of praise from the 2026 participants
“Aimee Nezhukumatathil was such a kind and encouraging mentor. In our 1-on-1 session she gave me such valuable advice on my writing and my next steps, so generous with her recommendations and feedback. Her prompts during our group sessions were so inspiring and sparked my imagination in a hundred different directions – I left the retreat brimming with ideas and inspiration that will fuel my writing for a long, long time.”
***
“Writing Retreat with Aimee Nezhukumatathil was everything and more than what I could have dreamed of. Hiking among the deodars, living among fruit-laden trees, and waking up to the songs of real birds! I worked with incredibly talented writers of all ages and with varied experiences. After getting prompts and tools for improving my manuscript from Aimee, I am walking away with a full heart and a bursting pen. I made great friends and got to know the Himalayan landscape well, which is helping me now, at home, bring out the best in my writing.”
***
“Aimee’s generosity as a mentor extended far beyond the retreat itself. Her openness and vulnerability created space for each of us to grow, both as writers and as people. I still carry her wisdom with me every time I sit down to write, and I find myself becoming more lyrical on the page and more thoughtful in the way I revise my own work.”
***
“Aimee was an amazing teacher. She provided many examples and fun activities with each new writing style. Her classes were constructive as well as engaging and fun.”
***
“I loved the balance of conversation and generative exercises, as well as the balance of our retreat days with structure and flexibility. I also liked that we got to try so many different types of activities, and I LOVED all the use of stickers, drawing, food, post cards and other material ways we played in class.”
***
“Aimee is an incredible and intentional mentor and facilitator. She made each of us feel seen in our work while giving us opportunities to challenge ourselves in our respective writing disciplines.”
***
“Aimee has created a dream of an environment. Her patience as an educator, mixed with her love as a mentor makes the safe so space for creativity. Being taught by her made me feel like I could do anything.”
