Get your bags packed and ideas ready.

Turn your passion for travel into a career.

“How do I become a travel writer?” is a question we both get asked a lot. (A LOT). So we thought, rather than keep our combined 30 years of newsroom experience a secret, why not share it with the world?

What our community is saying

  • "I was a novelist with absolutely no idea how to write travel stories, much less sell them. Be A Travel Writer taught me absolutely everything, and now I am proud to be publishing travel stories and joining adventures around the world--really! I still return to various lessons and check the new job board every day. If anyone asks me how I learned to travel for work, I recommend Stacey and Nina's class. It's the best investment I've ever made. Join us in the BeATravelWriter online community!"

    Amanda Eyre Ward, NYT-bestselling novelist and Reese Book Club pick for THE JETSETTERS.

  • "Since I’m new to travel writing specifically, I found the course to be super helpful with all of the nuances in the industry, like transparency around press trips, talking with PR reps, and tailoring pitches to editors. The course is filled with insider tips and extra resources that are invaluable. Best of all, I’ve gained a lifelong community of like-minded travelers and writers to connect with."

  • "As a young, aspiring writer, I found this course to be the most trustworthy resource on the internet. I dreamed of being a travel writer for years, but I was terrified that it would never amount to more than a fantasy. While this industry will always come with its challenges and doubts, BATW gives me the practical skills necessary to fight for the stories that matter and write my way around the world."
