I'm just curious because there are so many experienced travelers here. Has anyone written a travel article that's been published? If so, where was it published, and what was it about?

I published a magazine article on the planet Pluto a few years ago, but I haven't actually been there.

I had 3 bicycle travelling articles published in 'Bike World' in the early 70's and another article on bike travelling in another defunct magazine in the late 80's

Several. For a major newspaper chain and now for my own regional magazine, which I am forbidden from mentioning on this board.

I have contributed several articles in the past for our local paper on the performing arts, and when I mentioned our upcoming trip to Greece to the editor, he asked me to write an article about it, which I plan to do in October. Actually being a travel writer is my dream job.

Yes, I do write about travel for a living and contribute under a pseudonym for this forum because I like to add some of my expertise and I enjoy communicating with fellow travelers. It is indeed a dream job in many ways, but hard to make a living from without some other income. Still, can't complain. I made the choice because I love to travel and I do not regret it at all.

I have been published on several web sites with articles about travel in Europe, ranging from travelouges to advice on planning trips, renting cars trip budgets, and one light hearted piece--" Looking for Northern Italy". <BR> <BR>You can find them on these sites, among <BR>others. Some articles are on more than one place --here is a sampling. <BR>www.initaly.com <BR>www.travel-italy.com <BR>www.bootsnall.com <BR>www.expertcentral.com

After a trip along the coast of Norway in 1992 I was asked to prepare an article for the Travltips magazine. It was published under the title "Hurtigruten." It was a great trip, by the way.!

I'm a freelance writer and have published some travel pieces, mostly in newspaper travel sections: the Chicago Tribune and the Newark Star-Ledger, primarily. (One on Ithaca, NY, that should have run just this weekend in the Star-Ledger, although I'm still trying to get my hands on a hard copy.) <BR>I also had a piece on courier travel published in this month's Arthur Frommer's Budget Travel magazine, and have written for lodging.com. <BR>

I'm a newspaper reporter and have contributed several travel articles for our Sunday "magazine" section, thanks to my yen for travel, including 4 stories on the Loire, Spain, Croatia and Geneva. After I return from my next excursion, I plan to write another.
