About this Scholarship
Whether you keep a travel journal or want to launch a career in travel writing, mastering the art of storytelling is essential.
For the last 10 years, we have been teaming up with the likes of Rough Guides and Lonely Planet to create opportunities for aspiring writers to be mentored by industry travel authors.
Our scholarships aim to provide a platform to share travel stories, improve skills, and give talented writers a foot in the door of the travel writing industry.
Sharing stories and experiences is part of the human condition, and it helps us learn about each other, spread knowledge, and inspire wanderlust.
To all writers out there, keep writing, whether it's for yourself, a travel blog, or a major publication, because a great story will always be in demand.
