Dear Travel Writer,
Circling the globe… if you share my passion for travel, the idea probably inspires a certain yearning. There's something wonderfully romantic about the notion of that much freedom…
I know I, for one, couldn't resist the allure…
For our honeymoon a few months back, my husband and I booked two round-the-world business class tickets with stops in Milan and Lake Como, Italy… Dubai… Shanghai… and Tokyo.
And along the way, I learned all sorts of useful money-saving, time-trimming lessons about how to best design, book, and enjoy this sort of globe-trotting expedition.
Did you know, for instance, that you can book an around-the-world flight for as little as $799? No kidding. (It typically costs more than that to fly round-trip from New York to Paris!)
And it may surprise you, but flying business class can actually turn out to be cheaper than flying economy. Plus it's guaranteed to be more comfortable!
And here's another tip: Fly into one city and out of another – you'll save money. Plus, it's a sure way to enjoy more of a place. In other words, instead of flying in and out of Paris, consider arriving in Paris, taking a train to Amsterdam, and continuing on from there.

Those are just three of nearly 100 useful secrets and insights I've discovered about around-the-world travel that I want to share with you in a new online report we've just released, called Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself.
I'd like to give you a copy, free.
Even if you don't have an around-the-world trip on the horizon, I think you'll find – as I have – that understanding how these trips work could save you money every time you travel… no matter where in the world you're headed.
My name is Lori Allen, and I'm the director of the travel division at American Writers & Artists Inc. (AWAI). The secrets I discovered about traveling around the world are the kinds of insights you only gain by doing it yourself. You won't find them posted anyplace. The guidebooks won't give you a heads up.
But in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself you'll find out just how accessible – and affordable – an around-the-world trip can be.
You'll learn how to make your trip more comfortable and enjoyable (without spending a single cent more). And you'll even learn how you can turn your trip into an income-earning endeavor and cover your costs (or even make a profit).
The Right

I discovered that one of the biggest challenges you face when you go around the world is having to quickly – and seemingly continually – adapt to new cultures, new languages, new foods. It was a challenge exaggerated, to be sure, by our limited timeline – we had just under a month.
I have to admit, when we arrived in Shanghai (our first experience in Asia), we were completely shell shocked. Our guidebook said nothing, for example, about looking both ways before stepping out onto the sidewalk (sidewalks are fair game for motorcycles, bikes, and people carrying large bamboo sticks with buckets of cherries on each end).
Don’t get me wrong, by day two we'd fallen in love with the city. I’d return in a heartbeat. It’s just that we could have used some better insights, ahead of time, about Shanghai's quirks. That would have helped us adjust with more confidence and ease.
So I started digging around… and identified four extraordinary websites packed with great on-the-ground insider know-how about destinations all over the world. They made a big difference in the way we approached the rest of our trip, and I'll never go anywhere again without checking them first.
In Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself I'll share those resources with you so that you, too, can ensure that you're always traveling with the information and insights you need to make the most of every place you visit.
See things the guidebooks don't tell you about. Eat in restaurants packed with locals. Discover places with an insider's eye.
Find out an amazing new resource for learning a language on the fly – you'll never be at a loss for words again. You don't need a great aptitude for language to make this work for you. It's easy, inexpensive, and highly effective.
Learn five tips to help ensure your luggage travels with you – and, should it get lost, it's easy for the airline to track down (boy, did I learn these the hard way).
The secrets and lessons included in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself would make any round-the-world voyage more comfortable, smooth, enjoyable, and affordable – whether you're headed out for three weeks, three months, or three years.
In this new report, you'll get answers to questions like:
Plus money-saving advice:
And, of course, money-making advice too – with an in-depth look at how to profit from your travels – so your trip doesn’t cost you a dime
You’ll find all this information plus so much more in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself.
And it's yours, FREE, just for taking a look at The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program.
For some people, traveling around the world is a dream. For others, it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For you, it could be the start of an amazing new lifestyle where you can enjoy the freedom to travel anywhere you choose… and get paid to do it.
One thing’s for sure, after experiencing even a taste of this around-the-world jet-set lifestyle, you’ll find it hard to go back to the 9-to-5 routine... the monotony and drudgery of a boring desk job...
You’ll yearn for the freedom of the open road… for your next adventure… for the stories you’ll collect… and for memories you’ll savor from each new place you visit…
In The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, we'll introduce you to an easy and enjoyable way to fund your travels – whether you're headed all the way around the world or simply to the next town over…
It's not something that requires a lot of formal training. And anybody can do it – as long as you have a passion for travel, an interest in seeing new places and meeting new people, and you're willing to learn a few simple tricks of the trade.
If you've ever written an email home from a trip, telling your friends what you're up to, you can do this. It's simply a matter of turning your observations and impressions into stories you can sell.
And every secret you'll need to know you'll find in The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program.
Plus you'll discover, too, how you can take advantage of the amazing perks established travel writers can enjoy – everything from complimentary meals to on-the-house hotel stays to all-expenses-paid trips. Plus VIP treatment, like tickets to sold-out events and invites to gallery openings.
Now, that may all sound far-fetched. But it's not. Let me explain…
You see, publications around the world are looking for stories and photographs from travelers just like you.
Month after month and year after year, travel publishers have to come up with articles their readers will enjoy. The thing is – and this is why I'm writing to you today – they actually have trouble finding people to write these articles. Write them well, I mean.
Publishers always need people who love to travel… and who can relate their experiences in an interesting way.
Of the 17,321 magazines available in the U.S., 607 are about travel. Plus hundreds of non-travel publications devote at least a page or two each month to travel-related articles. And new online travel sites spring up every week.
Not to mention, there's a whole additional market to tap into in English-language publications based outside North America – in Australia, Britain, South Africa, and beyond.
In other words, great opportunity exists out there for writers who understand the business.
Problem is, most people don't have a clue about what travel editors and publishers are really looking for. They dash off an article they think is appealing and send it in. Nine times out of ten, it's off-the-mark. And it's no wonder they don't get published.
Be prepared and you’ll ensure that you’re getting the best value for your money. Details in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure.
But as I've said… you don't have to be a gifted wordsmith to write articles that sell and start cashing in on the many perks established travel writers enjoy.
Most people think you have to be a professional journalist or writer to get a foot in the door in this industry. But that's simply not the case.
Many of the most successful writers I've worked with over the years never had any formal training as "writers" per se. They didn't have degrees in journalism or in English, nor did they write in some other field in their day-to-day lives. They simply enjoyed a passion for travel, had a good eye for detail, and had learned how to deliver a story in just the way an editor would want it.
If you have basic writing skills and are willing to learn a few simple secrets… then you have what it takes to become a successful travel writer.
If you like to travel, you can learn the other skills. In fact, in the next few pages I'll show you how to do it quickly, easily, and without any risk.
You'll see immediately that The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program is not like any other writing program offered anywhere – university-based or correspondence.
You won't find anything lofty, vague, or fanciful in it. That's because Jennifer Stevens, a veteran freelance travel writer and the former editor of International Living, authored this program. And she focuses on practical, proven-in-the-real-world techniques she's relied on over the years to help travel writers produce better stories.
As Larry from Sugarland, TX put it:
"The information and examples included in your Travel Writer’s program were so good that I've landed an assignment with an international travel magazine even before completing all the program elements… I largely credit the program material for putting me firmly on the path to success in travel writing."
These days, many airlines demand you show “activity” on your account within a certain number of months. If you don’t, they’ll wipe your account to zero.
Find out how to avoid that happening to you in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure.
His is just one of many success stories:
Take Tim O'Rielly – a freelance photographer who travels regularly. He was looking for a way to get more mileage (and more money) out of his journeys, and travel writing seemed a good fit.
So he put the lessons he learned in the program to the test. Just two months after he completed the program, his first full-length feature article about travels in the Mayan World appeared in Vision Magazine. Since then, he's written two more cover stories for that publication (and sold his photos along with the stories).
Laura Gagnon, based in New York, has been successful, too. A bass player in a band by trade, she travels the world on tour and was looking for a way to spend her daytime, off-the-stage hours more productively.
She signed up for The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, and now she has had two restaurant/lounge reviews published in an online guide to nightlife in New York and LA.
They were works-for-hire, so she wasn't credited for each review. But her name appears on the contributor list in the print edition of the guide. And she said the editor was great to work with… and paid promptly.
In The Ultimate Travel Writer's Program, you'll learn – as those successful new travel writers have – how to build a strong foundation for your new career. Plus, you'll learn every technique, every secret – everything there is to know about how to write articles that sell every time. For instance…
Find out exactly, in specific terms, what makes a great story idea. Follow the guidelines this program details, and you'll find you can't stop thinking of strong, saleable story ideas… they'll be everywhere you look…
The program gives you the tools to transform your travels into paid-for vacations. And combined with the secrets you'll learn in Travel Around the World: How to Design, Book, and Enjoy the Ultimate Adventure… and Even Make it Pay for Itself … you’ll have the best advice available to start planning a the trip that could change the way you travel, for the rest of your life…
People roll out the red carpet and treat travel writers with such respect and prestige because they need them.
Here’s why: Around the world, tourism generates more than $2 billion in spending per day, according to the World Tourism Organization. And competition for those tourist dollars is fierce.
It’s no wonder, then, that hotels... tour organizers... cruise lines... airlines... even local governments are willing to spend big bucks on travel writers – in hopes that they’ll have a positive experience and write about it favorably in a magazine, newspaper, or newsletter.
Success as a travel writer – getting your name in print, the special treatment, the invitations for complimentary travel – isn’t a matter of luck. It’s a matter of being well-prepared… of knowing how the system works… of understanding what distinguishes a superior article from a mediocre one… of delivering to an editor exactly what he or she is looking for.
That’s exactly what you’ll learn in The Ultimate Travel Writer’s Program.

It's called Money-Making Travel Photography: Train Yourself to Take Saleable Photo in 15 Minutes or Less and I guarantee it will open your eyes to even more paying possibilities. Here's why:
Open up any magazine and what do you find yourself looking at first?
That’s right. Photographs!
There’s a simple reason. No matter how compelling and interesting the writing might be... photos help grab a reader’s attention.
Now, as a travel writer, you usually won’t have to worry about providing photographs for the major publications.
But some publications will pay you handsomely for the right pictures. And when you can offer an editor a full package – article with photos – it’s often a much more persuasive pitch.
Plus, photos can really up your income.
Consider David Morgan. He traveled across Asia for six months with his old Vivitar camera in hand. He dined with the Privy Counsel to the King of Thailand... met the late Mother Teresa... and shook hands with the Dalai Lama. He took a week-long, four-wheel-drive journey across Tibet. He went trout fishing in a pristine mountain stream in Bumburet, a hidden valley in the Hindu Kush. He also got to see secret religious ceremonies rarely witnessed by outsiders.
He found a textbook publisher who needed the photos from his trip. Not only did his connections SAVE him money, but he actually MADE money... over $6,000! What's more, a few years later, the publisher offered to pay him AGAIN when the book went to a second edition.
And, as freelance travel writer, Steenie Harvey, explains, “I just got 450 euros ($562) for a 1,400 word piece on Edinburgh PLUS another 300 euros ($375) for the six photos I sent in with it. Not a bad haul for an amateur snapper.”
Because photography goes hand-in-hand with travel writing and offers you a way to instantly increase your income and a second way to fund your travels, I’m pleased to send you this guide at no charge today.
Money-Making Travel Photography: Train Yourself to Take Saleable Photo in 15 Minutes or Less is a full-color CD-ROM guide that will teach you all the insider’s secrets to taking saleable photos and getting them published.
For example, you’ll learn 10 fundamentals about light, location, action, and angles that will revolutionize your photos… plus 24 techniques the pros employ to make every photo more saleable. You’ll also find out what you need to bring on the road to minimize hassle and maximize success… how to deliver photos that tell a story and bring a place to life… and more.
And it’s yours FREE right now, just for trying The Ultimate Travel Writer’s Program.
You know, most folks who long to travel around the world spend years saving up for a trip like that and carving out the time to take it.
Others take out loans and put themselves in debt. Still others pay for a voyage like that by working overseas on farms… waiting on tables… doing construction… teaching… nursing… and other jobs that tie them down to a work schedule overseas – leaving only a few days a week to explore their host destination.
Others who want the freedom take drastic measures… they quit their jobs… sell their home, cars and other possessions… pack their bags and go... spending everything to follow their dreams…
There’s nothing wrong with any of those scenarios… in fact, I think it's wonderful that there are people out there doing whatever it takes to live their dream of seeing the world.
It’s just that there’s a much simpler, more rewarding way to do it – as a travel writer.
Act now, and you'll have in your possession every key you need to turn yourself into a pro faster than you ever imagined possible. This time next year… you could be traveling around the world and getting paid to do it.
