Write for us

We welcome thoughtful contributions about the choices and ideas behind travel. A strong proposal gives readers a clear subject to follow and a useful reason to keep reading.

What we are looking for

Pitch clear, original work about planning, routes, packing, travel rhythms or travel traditions. We are especially interested in pieces that explain a choice, compare approaches, put a familiar practice in context or help readers think through a particular kind of journey.

Make the pitch specific

Tell us the proposed angle, the reader it is for and the main idea the piece will leave them with. Briefly explain how it will be distinct from other coverage, what knowledge or material it draws on, and whether any part of the proposal has appeared elsewhere.

Send a proposal

Use the Contact page to submit your pitch. Please send a proposal rather than a completed article unless we have agreed otherwise. We cannot promise publication, and a submitted pitch should not assume that a commission has been made.
