abroad

for Travelers,
Explorers, Expats
& those home away from home

We use engagement with art to support
the well-being of those home away from home.

You’re a traveler, visiting Venice for the first time. You’re an explorer, conducting experiments in Antarctica. You’re an expat, who’s just moved to Mexico to experience a different lifestyle. Or perhaps you’re planning to relocate for a new job, relationship, or educational opportunity.  

Finding yourself in a new location can be exhilarating. It can provide countless opportunities for self-growth, learning and unique experiences. Yet, it can also be stressful and offer up its own set of challenges. You may encounter culture shock and language barriers. You may miss your network of friends and family. You may find that locating the closest grocery store requires a Herculean effort.

ArteLing is passionate about facilitating travel and fostering connections across cultures. We’re aware of the challenges and opportunities that globe trotting and relocation can present. We’ve been there!

Our interactive perception-art programs are designed to support you on your travel, relocation, and cross-cultural journeys. Our workshops and coaching help you gain key stress management tactics, tailored to being home away from home. Our trainings help you access techniques to ease communication in unfamiliar settings as well as navigate cross-cultural trials.

Through our perception and art-based programs, you learn skills, that help you increase your well-being in a new setting. Additionally, our workshops also offer a platform to practice those skills together—reducing stress and strengthening communication during the experience itself and long after it ends.
