Ray was a fantastic host, really good class! Very informative about the language and plenty of time to practice and write whatever you want. Highly recommend!
We did lots and lots of calligraphy. You could do unlimited sheets, we learnt all about the different scripts and our guide showed us how to write our names! Good for people who are not good at painting, or for people who like it! I like painting and my partner doesn’t but we both enjoyed it.
Very nice experimented host and ambiance ! Beautiful room too and very relaxing
