Starting out as a travel writer

Here are some ideas for how to establish yourself as a travel writer:


  • Competition for the magazines you see on the book stands is intense, so start with submitting online articles and fillers.

  • Build your portfolio through a website or blog. Articles, fillers, photos and videos should all feature.

  • Find your niche and own it. By owning it, I mean sharing your stories on social media, blogging, interacting with other blogs and participating in online forums.

  • As well as networking online, network in the flesh. Go to travel events. Go to travel blogging events. Go to events that fit your niche within travel. Make up some business cards and get them into people's hands.
