Hello, travel writers,

We are about to hit the road on a trip together (more on that next week!) so again keeping it brief, but keep scrolling for this week’s opportunities, and don’t forget you can subscribe to our job board for WAY more jobs each week, including calls for pitches, full-time, part-time, and copywriting roles, updated daily, for just $4/month or $40/year.

But, real quick: Let’s say...hypothetically…we started offering job board members access to an exclusive Slack channel, with some fun additional perks (like getting to connect with one another and receive instant alerts on new calls for pitches and jobs) would this be something you’d be into?

Need more advice or want to brush up on some skills? Check out our classes and remember that our students are always welcome to reach out with questions at [email protected].
