Our 2019 Ultimate Travel Writer’s Workshop is now SOLD OUT… BUT you can still attend LIVE from home and pay less for a seat when you register before the event kicks off on September 13.
Get all the secrets you need for traveling the world for free… meeting new people… and getting paid as a travel writer
We’ll even introduce you to several publications ready to hand you your first check
There are a lot of reasons why travel writing is the best job in the world.
-
It’s incredibly fun! It’s actually your ”job” to relax by the pool at a beautiful seaside resort, play golf with a pro… take a boat excursion to a secluded Caribbean island, and then dine out at a 5-star restaurant – all in the name of research.
-
You get paid to do things you’d gladly pay for yourself. Publications will cover many travel expenses. Resorts, tourism boards, and tour groups will invite you to stay for free and will roll out the red carpet. And then you get paid for sharing your experiences in travel articles when you get home!
-
Bragging rights – not only will you get to see your name in magazines, newspapers, and online travel sites, but you will always have the coolest job to talk about at cocktail parties. Just think of how nice it will be to be taken out of line and shown to the front row or VIP lounge…
-
You will have the chance to discover new things about the world and yourself, exploring the world as a travel writer – not a tourist. You will be encouraged to try new experiences, meet new people from different cultures, and explore places the typical tourist often misses.
-
You don't need a degree in journalism or a mastery of the English language to become a travel writer. You don't need a fancy laptop or lots of money. All you do need is an interest in seeing new places and meeting new people… For everything else, our workshop has got you covered.
Everything you need to travel the world and get paid as a travel writer…
If you can take good notes about what you did and where you went, and then recommend — or discourage — others from following in your footsteps, you could earn a few hundred… maybe even a few thousand… dollars for your trouble.
In the coming months you could be taking VIP vacations… getting invited to stay at the best resorts without spending a penny… and seeing your name and articles published everywhere — from local websites to the world’s most prestigious travel magazines and newspapers…
Tim Cotroneo had no writing experience when he joined our workshop, took the plunge, and swapped his job in recruitment – his cold, hour-long commute, and “regular life” – for the travel writer’s life… for “everything you dream of!”
Here’s his story…
Workshop Participant, Tim Cotroneo
So, what’s happened to me in the past year since becoming a travel writer?
Well, I’ve received the services of a butler… enjoyed a helicopter thrill ride… and called a best-selling author “neighbor.”
Before travel writing, I thought these things only happened to people in the movies.
Now, my dream-come-true is happening as we speak.
In the Caribbean, on the island of Anguilla, I stayed for free in a five-bedroom, oceanfront villa that included a butler. On the island of Nevis, I played free golf—watched, from a mango tree, by a gallery of vervet monkeys.
Next month, I’m attending a press trip in Turks and Caicos. I’ll be writing about a cabana bar restaurant located smack dab on Grace Bay, a 12-mile beach considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world…
Over the past year, in addition to enjoying airfare, hotel, dining, spa, and excursion perks that are courtesy of having “travel writer” on my business card, my articles generated pay-days ranging from $50 to $800. Travel writing may be the ultimate win/win profession.
Let me set the stage for my travel writer before and after. In 2011, before attending a travel writer workshop, I lived a rather normal existence as a recruiter in the fields of architecture and engineering. When I wasn’t reviewing resumes and job descriptions, I played matchmaker between candidates and employers.
I live in Minneapolis, a city notorious for its not-so-tropical temperatures. My rush-hour commute in the winter could take up to an hour. These white-knuckle treks gave me time to daydream of warmer climates and ditching my snow boots for flip-flops.
The idea of taking on a second life involving talcum-powder beaches, rum punches, and snorkeling adventures seemed far-fetched… but since learning the travel writing tricks of the trade, my life has been rewarded in ways that I can only describe as “priceless.”
All travel writers have a different vision of what living the travel writer life means. You may want to visit Europe and write about Italian vineyards… German beer festivals… and French cuisine.
Or you may be drawn towards adventure vacations, like hiking in the mountains, white-water rafting, or checking out African wildlife on safari.
For me, the mother lode is a Caribbean writing existence.
And, believe it or not, I’m doing just that now…
And, for workshop participant Scott Kendall, travel writing is all about the opportunity to have richer, more meaningful experiences, and meeting interesting new people…
Workshop participant, Scott Kendall, and his family…
An intimate cooking class in the Tuscan hill town of Montepulciano, Italy, in the company of Oscar-winning filmmakers, a charismatic restaurant owner, and a head chef.
A private water taxi picking us up from our complimentary hotel in Venice and delivering us to the doorstep of one of the finest glassmaking factories in Murano for a personal tour.
A beautiful five-course meal with a local Monterosso wine, starting with a warm welcome from the owner, all the while enjoying the view from the best seat in a fabulous seaside restaurant in Cinque Terre.
These are just a few of the experiences that came my way on a trip to Italy after I discovered the perks of being a travel writer.
I have always enjoyed traveling, but, like many people, I have done so on limited information and a modest budget. Being away for a week or two was an extravagance — there was little money left in the budget for indulgences like fancy hotels, fine dining, expensive excursions, and the like. My wife Julie and I often skipped outings because they were too expensive, or we didn’t know the right people, or we were just oblivious to what is out there.
But traveling writing has opened up doors that were never available to us before. It gave us the opportunity to share a Tuscan restaurant’s cozy kitchen with the owner Massimo, the head chef Federico, and another lovely couple who joined us for a very entertaining cooking class. The couple, who happened to be Oscar-winning filmmakers from Australia, were fun and engaging throughout the class.
Because we enjoyed the morning cooking class so much, Julie, our son Jacob, and I later returned to the same restaurant and were treated to one of the most delicious, and eye-appealing meals I have ever had. Dishes included octopus ragout with gnocchi, pigeon breast with “Vin Santo” wine sauce and foie gras, sirloin beef steak from Val di Chiana, and a warm compote of seafood, tuna, shrimp, marinated salmon, squid, mussels, vegetables, and seawater. And then came three delectable desserts, including their popular chocolate “cigar” with tobacco ice-cream and rum sauce.
Travel writing has helped me discover the best places and activities, and reach out to great people at my chosen destinations. In addition to getting some great complimentary perks, I have formed relationships with hotel and restaurant owners, chefs, business-owners, artists, writers, and other interesting people. This has opened so many doors of opportunity that I would never have encountered in my previous life.
You know, you can take the same strategies and secrets these guys used, and become a published travel writer too… and a lot faster than you probably imagine.
When you join this workshop, you’ll see firsthand that it isn't filled with theoretical fluff. We tell you how, in the real world, this industry works. And then we show you — step-by-step — exactly how to start at the beginning, how to land your first byline, your first trip… and take it from there, until you are traveling the world and getting paid for it!
Registration is now open: Join the Ultimate Travel Writer’s Workshop… from home via Livestream
Right now, there is absolutely no better way for you to access such an incredible wealth of industry knowledge from the comfort of your own home.
You don’t have to travel, take time off work or spend money on airfare or hotel. Simply join us online from anywhere in the world. And we’ll put you “in the room” with the industry’s top travel writers, publishers, editors… and fellow members who’ve already gone from no experience reader to globetrotting writer.
Plus, you’ll get invaluable bonuses including a beginner’s guide to success, webinars with our experts to go over your questions before and after the event, access to our 12th annual Publication’s Expo… and lifetime access to recordings, too (which we won’t sell anywhere else - at any time of year).
We’ll even introduce you to several publications ready to hand you your first check!

Ordinary folks, extraordinary successes. This workshop really works
You don't need a degree in journalism or a mastery of the English language to become a travel writer. And you don't need a fancy laptop or lots of money, either.
What you do need is an interest in seeing new places and meeting new people… and a willingness to apply the techniques, tricks, and secrets the pros use to write the kinds of stories that editors want to buy… and land the amazing perks just sitting there waiting for you to grab them.
And you don’t even have to travel to make a go of it. After all, where you live is a destination for somebody.
You can easily write about what there is to see and do in your hometown. And when you do that, you're pretty much guaranteed local celebrity status. That means invites to all sorts of fun stuff — like gallery openings, tourist attractions, new restaurants, and more.

Special Publication Expo delivers real publications looking for your articles
In fact, we're so committed to connecting you with real-life opportunities… to helping you take what you learn at the workshop and immediately turn it into a byline and a check… that we're putting on a very special Publication Expo: A Job Fair for Freelance Travel Writers during the program for everyone who attends the workshop. We’re going to connect you with publishers that we’ve already reached out to… and that we know are happy to work with you.
We’ve been in touch with the editors at more than a dozen publications. We’ve interviewed them. Really, we picked their brains. And found out — on your behalf — what, exactly, they're looking for in an article.
We asked about what they like… what drives them nuts… and what you can do to increase your chances of landing a byline there. You'll learn all of that… and more.
We’ve also included each publication's writer's guidelines as well as links to the websites and sample articles from each publication profiled.
In essence, you’re getting a roadmap for scoring a byline in each one.
Since we hosted our very first Publication Expo twelve years ago, the successes they’ve produced are really unbelievable.
Today, it’s where most workshop participants get their first published story – in one of the publications profiled at The Expo.
One workshop participant told us she landed three bylines in publications we profiled at the Publication Expo.
I asked her about her experience, and she said…
All in all, the information you'll gain in this workshop could, quite literally, change your life — it has already for so many past participants who, today, are working travel writers.
When you join us via Livestream over these three days, you’ll get real “boots on the ground” advice from experts who are making it happen themselves. They’re all generous with their time and expertise, and will be available to answer your questions. They firmly believe that anybody – armed with the right secrets and a commitment to use them – can make money and travel better as a travel writer.
Let me introduce you to the experts you’ll be hearing from…
Jennifer Stevens is the author of The Ultimate Travel Writer’s Program (our home-study program) and architect of this workshop.
Jen is the Executive Editor of International Living and long-time travel writer having spent the balance of the last decade gallivanting around Latin America, the Caribbean, and Europe, writing about the best locales for overseas travel, retirement, and investment.
From her you'll get the insider's scoop about what editors are really after and blueprints for articles you can follow so easily you'll find your pieces published in no time. Plus you'll learn how to polish your articles in just such a way that editors will be transfixed.
Jen’s going to share some powerful secrets such as;
- How to write your first article in less than 20 minutes
- Five secret weapons you can use as a travel writer…
- The single most important skill to make editors love you
- And more!
“Jen was able to take a group of anxious inexperienced students and turn them into confident travel writers in only 3 days!” — Bernadine Birdsong
“Jennifer's presentations are chock-full of practical useful information delivered in a lively and interesting way and her experience and credentials are solid and authentic.” — Sana Ruddick
Kyle Wagner is a freelance writer, former food critic, and former long-time Travel Editor at the Denver Post. Kyle dished out her opinions on dining in Denver for 12 years before she moved to the Post. Her love of food found her traveling the world in search of the best meals, which served her well when the previous travel editor retired from the Post and Kyle got the job. She’ll share her invaluable insider knowledge of what makes travel editors tick, how to write an attractive query, how to break into newspaper travel sections, and how to add a food element -- ever more indispensable these days -- into your travel stories, making them irresistible to editors.
Kyle has a 360-degree view of how both sides of the travel writing world works, and the best places to get in. She’s especially savvy with pitches and will show you simple things you can do to get an editor’s attention and keep them coming back for more. Her secret weapon is the “3 Paragraph Pitch” which she’ll share with you in Little Rock.
“I loved her part of the workshop… she gave awesome tips on contacting an editor.” — Yolanda Biggs
“It would be hard to find a more knowledgeable or experienced editor.” — Alicia Dietrich
Ian Aldrich is the Deputy Editor for Yankee Magazine and a native New Englander. For the last decade, Ian has worked and freelanced for Yankee, writing feature stories and overseeing the magazine’s digital platform.
In this last year alone, Yankee has expanded by leaps and bounds – including producing its own television show - and during the workshop, Ian will share with you everything you need to know about how the travel writing industry is changing and show you exactly what you can to do to stay ahead of the curve.
Ian can show you everything from how to get multiple stories from the one location… to how to turn your niche ideas into articles that sell.
“Ian was genuine and humble in his approach and conveyed a real interest in the attendees.” — Beth W.
“Ian is knowledgeable, funny, and as layered as the publication he represents.” — Carolyn B.
Tracey Minkin is the Senior Editor of Travel and Features at Coastal Living, an award-winning luxury magazine and digital brand specializing in homes, destinations, food, style, and personalities from the coasts of North America and beyond. During her career, Tracey has worked as a freelance writer and as an editor for regional and national magazines – so she knows exactly how to pitch to many different kinds of publications. Her writing has been anthologized in collections and has won both regional and national awards; she was a contributing author to Fodor’s The Thirteen Colonies, a historical/cultural travel guidebook; and she was the founding editor of a Providence, Rhode Island-based digital news and information platform, GoLocalProv.
Tracey will show you how to think like a travel writer with simple, daily exercises that will revolutionize your writing. And she’ll share a simple formula for creating a story lede that will draw readers in.
“Tracey’s knowledge, experience and personality are exactly what beginning travel writers need.” — Andy Wilson
“Loved Tracey’s advice and her publication. The fact that she started as a freelancer and then landed the editorial job at the magazine is inspiring.” — Gayle Irwin
“I appreciate hearing Tracey’s perspective of print and digital and felt it most relevant to both the evolving publishing landscape and my personal interests.” — Michele Bliss
And more…
Now, it's early still, and we’re still finalizing our workshop speakers. But we're already busy sending out speaker invitations to editors at a host of publications. These are people who hire writers just like you and who are always in the market for stories they can pay for to fill up their pages.
In September, these "guest editors" will talk to you about their own particular niches and how to guarantee you can break in with ease. For instance, you'll hear about food writing — how to write about restaurants, what to make sure you include in your reviews, tricks for evaluating cafés, bars, and restaurants, and more…
Plus, we're inviting a wide variety of freelance writers who will share with you the lessons they've learned over the years and the secrets they know to apply every time they sit down to write.
Like Noreen Kompanik, who after attending this very workshop, went quickly from beginner… to in-demand travel writer… world traveler… and now leader of our Travel Writer’s Café. She’ll share her secrets to landing press trips and travel perks so you can travel more without a hefty expense.
She’ll show you how she landed press trips to Hawaii, Japan, Mexico and beyond… and how you can too even if you’re a beginner today.
Former attendee-turned-travel writer Theresa St. John will share her love of writing local stories and why she considers it a fast, easy, low-stress and lucrative way to land a lot of bylines in a short amount of time.
Plus, every year we invite a success panel of past attendees to come back and share their real-world successes.
It’s an incredible opportunity to hear from someone who has been in your shoes, and made the leap from participant to travel writer, using the same tools you’ll have before you this September.
This is the kind of stuff it would take you years to figure out on your own. But our speakers will spare you the trouble, frustration, and time… and just cut to the chase.
That way you're sure to be using your time and energies wisely. There's no more efficient — or fun — way to learn this stuff and guarantee you're up-and-running, enjoying the perks of a writer's life fast.
After joining us at one of our workshops in Argentina, Sandra K. sold an article about Buenos Aires apartments within just a month of her return home.
And another participant from our workshop in San Diego successfully sold the same article she wrote during our program three times — and got paid for it all three times, too.
Special Bonus:
Triple your income with this one extra skill Practical (You can do it with a point-and-shoot) lessons from a professional photographer, too…
In addition to the wealth of travel writing know-how you’ll access at this event, we've integrated something else very special — and useful — too…
A revealing presentation by a seasoned professional photographer.
Most travel writing workshops or programs don’t cover this. But we know the complete article-photo package can be a big hit with editors. A few simple real-life photos to go with your article is a great way to get an editor’s attention, and double or even triple your income while you’re at it!
While it’s not an essential skill, the truth is photos help you sell your articles. You don't need a fancy camera, previous skills, or experience to take the kinds of shots that can illustrate your stories beautifully.
In this BONUS session, you'll learn some easy techniques you can put into practice immediately to take better shots every time.
We’re going to show you how to easily transform a vacation snapshot into a photo you can sell. And how to put together an article-photo package that will have editors knocking at your door.
Using the “article-photo package” is a sure-fire way to sell more stories!
-
Joan Airey from Rivers, Manitoba, took a three-day trip to Harbour Lights B&B in Vernon, BC, in the heart of the Okanagan. She sold eight stories from that one trip. What’s more, the photographs Joan shot to go with those stories will net her another $600.
-
Her clients fly her across the country to write and photograph Australia! Paula Heelan tells us, “I write regularly for different magazines and newspapers (mostly in Australia) and sell my articles and photos as the complete package. Because I live in a rural area (virtually the outback!), I write about what’s happening around me. But I’ve also been flown across the country to write and photograph unusual things — which is thrilling… I love it so much. I can’t believe it’s happening!”
-
It’s fun seeking out photographic moments! Lynne Christen says, “My photographs have been published (for additional pay), along with travel articles, in Columbus Business First, Columbus, OH, and in the NW Florida Daily News, Fort Walton Beach, FL. In both of these cases, the availability of photographs meeting their requirements was key to selling the accompanying articles.”
Of course, all of that is just a small sampling of the kind of real-world insights this program delivers…
The world’s best locations – on THEIR tab – and they'll pay you to write about it!
If you want to get paid to dine at delectable restaurants… visit your favorite haunts… and turn your insider knowledge of your own hometown into checks that land in your mailbox…
If you want to play on first-rate golf courses and ski the best slopes… find out how to land an incredible deal for a fraction of the usual rate, or maybe no charge at all…
If you want to spend your next birthday on a white-sand beach in Bora Bora… sip tea in an Irish countryside cottage… or spend a day sampling the finest wines and cheeses France has to offer… then this workshop is for you.
This is what Monday mornings look like…when you’re a travel writer…
There are plenty other "writing workshops" out there. But I want to be clear — this program is different than anything else you'll find. It's not the kind of thing where you just hear from some writers who share their stories to inspire you.
We do that, too, mind you. I mean, I guarantee you'll come away invigorated and ready to really jump into travel writing. But we take things a few steps further. We hand you a roadmap you can follow to really make it happen.
Our experts will actually give you a success plan you can work through — day-by-day — so you can have an article to an editor within weeks. We're all about action.
When you attend virtually, you won’t miss a thing! You’ll have access to all the live sessions (and Lifetime Access to the recordings), and you’ll be able to get all of your questions answered.
There will be an exclusive Facebook group for participants to network with fellow photographers, staff members, and experts.
You’ll even have an “on-the-ground host” to help you get the most out of your Livestream experience.
We'll introduce you to a system that, when coupled with a bit of persistence, is so powerful, our past workshop participants are getting their work published like there’s no tomorrow.
The information you'll gain at this at-home workshop could, quite literally, change your life — it has already for so many of our past participants who, today, are working travel writers.
Here’s what our workshop architect, Jennifer Stevens, has to say about the program:
We’re bringing these income earning travel writing opportunities directly to you!
For the many years we’ve been hosting these workshops, participants have always had to attend in person to get full access and opportunities for live interaction and networking.
That’s why I’m so excited to be offering this Livestream option for attending our workshop virtually!
This means you can access the sessions in real time, from anywhere in the world where you have internet access – whether that means at home in your office… on the couch with a cup of coffee… or from your local library or favorite café.
And if you miss anything, you’ll get the recordings, too.
I enjoy attending live workshops… but I know there are plenty of reasons why that’s not always possible. Sometimes health reasons don’t allow for travel… or it can be hard to take time off work… or maybe there are personal responsibilities that make it difficult to leave home…
Or, maybe you just prefer the convenience of learning at home… maybe you’re not ready to take the leap and travel all the way to Little Rock, and would prefer to start by “dipping your toes in”…
Whatever the reason – you now have the perfect option to enjoy the live event without actually setting foot outside your home.
And you’ll enjoy it all in the company of like-minded people, keen to learn, seek out the best photo opportunities, meet new friends, and HAVE FUN!

Diana R. said, “My favorite luxury travel and spa writing perk was when my husband and I spent a week floating French canals on a 12-passenger barge -- entirely free of charge.”
Stan S. says one of his top three all-time favorite travel writing perks was “my pampered cruise through Patagonia around Cape Horn, the southernmost land mass in the world, with excursions that included walking amid thousands of penguins and sipping cocktails from atop a glacier.” A runner up included a cruise through Alaska's Inside Passage. Mark’s two-page feature article won him a week-long sailing trip for two in Croatia!
