Discover the Amazing World of Travel Writing
The world of travel writing is exciting and rewarding and offers you some great opportunities to travel and be paid for it. And the best thing is, you don’t need a journalism degree to break in to and succeed in this field.
Our need for travel writing has been around a long time. It is hard to say who the first travel writer ever was but often the Greek author Herodotus is considered to be one of them. He travelled all over the eastern mediterranean writing about it in 450 BC. Plus, there have been many others documenting their travels for others to read over the couple of thousand of years since Herodotus. So writing about travel and being a travel writer is nothing new!
Today, travel writing is a broad term defining the genre including writing travel blogs, guide books, non-fiction travel memoirs and travel articles for magazines and newspapers both printed and online. Plus writing scripts for vlogs, documentaries and podcasts.
If you want to be writing about travel and getting paid for it, you have come to the right place. Because here, at Writing About Travel, we are all about helping people turn their passions for travel and writing into a career. We do this through our courses.
Writing about Travel’s philosophy: ‘reading makes you a better writer’.
Absolutely true. Reading greatly helps your writing skills. It exposes you to writing styles, diverse vocabulary and sentence structures that improves the way you write.
