Our Journal is committed to sharing the truth about the realities of travel. Here you will find a truly international range of perspectives and diverse destinations that explore topics of sustainability, human experience, culture and beyond. Telling these stories matters and we’ve created four guidelines to ensure the quality of our work is something you can trust and be inspired by.
Credible: We aim for depth and inclusivity in our stories and follow the four tenets of journalism: seek the truth, act independently, minimize harm, and be accountable. As a result, our writers are experienced and international.
Conscientious: As we cover a range of diverse cultures — often writing firsthand about a new experience — we use inclusive terminology that shows respect for the people and places we’re writing about. We think about our global audience and speak to the emotional, sensory nature of the human experience.
Current: With travel constantly changing, we are always at the forefront of what’s new. We observe and reference topical news, events, and trends and express them in a clear, concise way.
Inclusive: While our approach is journalistic in its standards, our content is grounded in compelling narratives and personal perspectives. We’re human, so we talk like real humans.
