How do I become a travel writer?

How to become a travel writer?

  • I've spent the last two years having no idea what I want to do with my life. I'm at university right now, and I've got two years left after this one finishes... I only really came on to this course to buy myself some time though to figure out what I want to do! I recently decided that, because I love travelling, and writing, my dream job would be a travel writer. I love reading Bill Bryson and people like that, and that for a career would be amazing. But how do you get in to it? Start off at a travel agents trying to write articles for an in-flight magazine? Go to a newspaper and get writing experience? I have no idea! Any help would be hugely appreciated! I'm on a law degree and apparently that can be good for journalism so I wouldn't have to change courses or anything which is a plus, because if I did then I'd be hit by the rise in tuition fees.

You could also get any job that requires travel, then write on the side. As you get better at writing for your website you will start to make money. From there you can earn a living. I also suggest writing in a niche like law, since you have experience there.
