Remember, we’re happy for anybody to write anything about anywhere.
How do I contribute?
We have a bunch of different ways you can share your worldwide discoveries. Please note that all written contributions should be in Microsoft Word and all photos in jpg format - thanks.
See below for how to send us stuff.
My Trip in 1 Photo
Send us the single photo which sums up your whole trip and tell us why in a short paragraph.
Traveller’s Tales
In anything from just a paragraph to 1000 words tell us a story from your travels. Is it a best or worst ever travel experience? Does it involve an unusual destination, forgetting something or transport issues? Does it feature a memorable encounter with local people or wildlife? Is it funny, poignant, or just plain weird? Share it with everyone, with a relevant photo if you can.
Gallery
Send us a favourite picture taken on your travels. It can be of a view, people, animals, something arty, something funny, anything really that you think others will enjoy and perhaps be inspired by to follow in your footsteps. You don't need to be a pro with a flash camera or fancy phone, holiday snaps are fine.
Features
Write us an in-depth feature about a trip you’ve taken. It can be about any kind of journey to anywhere in the world, but please keep it under 2500 words (that’s not as long as you might think, just a slow 10 minute read). Did this place live to your pre-trip expectations? Did you discover anything unexpected? What did you love, or hate? Did you meet interesting people? If so, what did they have to say? What was different about this place from home? Would you recommend this place to readers?
Top 5….
Give us a list of 5 things that are travel related - Your favourite 5 destinations? Your 5 best ever holidays? The 5 weirdest things you've eaten abroad? The 5 celebs you would like to travel with. Tells us why too, in a sentence or two.
So, do you love a place so much that you want everyone to know about it? Give us five great reasons why we should all go there, preferably with a photo or two. Is it the scenery? The people? The food? The culture? Or is it something personal to you? What makes it so brilliant?
My Travel
From time to time Travel Write will interview celebrities and other interesting people about what floats their particular travel “boat”, their childhood holiday reminiscences and their best/worst travel experiences. We’re always open to "realistic" suggestions for whom we should feature.
Digital Postcards
Eventually we'll be on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram too so, when you’re on your travels, you'll soon be able to send us a digital postcard.
I have an idea that doesn’t fit any of these categories. Can I still contribute?
Absolutely! If you have an idea for a feature or article that doesn’t fit into an existing category then let us know and we’ll look into finding another way of adding it to the site.
How do I send you stuff?
Please submit material or any questions to our editor’s email travelwrite4@gmail.com
