Every week, we scour the web for every job posting of interest to the travel writers on our email list.

These aren’t always strictly travel (we know you all have many interests and writing subject matter expertise areas, and that’s a great way to diversify your income!), and we always kick in the quirkiest–and simply bad a$$est–jobs we turn up as well.

If you’re not already receiving our weekly jobs list, which is exclusively put together with love each week for those on our email list–also the best way to head about our FREE one-hour travel writing webinar each week and get exclusive discounts, you can check out a sample here below.
