The Interview

For Full Editorial submissions. Express Profile submitters are welcome to skip ahead to the Media section. These questions are designed to find the writer behind the byline — please answer as freely and fully as you wish.
Tell us how you became a travel writer — not the resume version, but the real one. The trip, the assignment, the editor, the moment you understood this was the work.
Walk us through your development as a journalist — the publications, the regions, the stories that shaped your voice and expanded what you thought writing could do.
Every serious travel writer has a place that claimed them — a city, a country, a landscape they keep returning to in their work and in their life. What is yours, and why won't it let you go?
Tell us about an assignment that changed you — that sent you somewhere and brought back a version of yourself that saw the world differently.
What is the most important thing you have ever had to unlearn about travel writing — a received idea, a genre convention, an editorial expectation that had to go?
The best travel writing is also about the writer — their biases, their blind spots, their relationship to the place they are in. How do you navigate the balance between presence and transparency?
Which destination do you believe is the most profoundly misrepresented in travel media — and what would it take to tell the true story?
Tell us about a piece of writing — yours or someone else's — that you consider the highest watermark of the form. What makes it extraordinary?
The economics of travel journalism have changed beyond recognition. How do you sustain serious, independent work in an era of content and sponsored itineraries?
There is a tension at the heart of luxury travel writing — between genuine appreciation and the risk of becoming a mouthpiece for the industry. How do you navigate it?
What does the next generation of travel writers most need to hear — about the craft, the market, the world, and the long game of building a body of work?
When you travel for yourself — no assignment, no deadline — what kind of traveler are you? What do you look for, and what do you let yourself miss?
Who are the writers — travel or otherwise — who have most profoundly shaped how you see the world and how you put it into words?
How do you define luxury — on the road, on the page, and in the life you are building around both?
What is coming next — a book, an assignment, a journey, a subject that has been pulling at you? What has your full attention?
What is the question no one ever asks a travel writer — the one that would actually get to something true about the work? Ask it here, and answer it.
