Tourism & Travel

Becoming a travel journalist can be a fun, exciting, and rewarding career! As with any career, you must have dedication and passion. A good education (formal or informal) complemented with hard work is key.
Key Factors to Consider
You must love to write, especially about travel. Do you have a good idea for a story? Do you possess communication powers? Are you able to get people to speak with you? Are you be able to breathe life into a story with your words and make it come alive? Can you work under pressure? You may want to consider these before you embark on a journey to become a travel journalist.
Becoming a travel journalist
-Choose the right course of study. You can go for a four-year general journalism degree at a top journalism school, which will certainly open doors, or consider an online course specifically for travel journalism (as well as travel photography) which can open the right doors.
-Decide the type of journalism you would like to pursue such as newspapers, magazines, television, or online.
-Networking, networking, networking! Speak to as many people as you can! Who knows, some of them may become your mentor.
-Get your name out there. Send out resumes to different media outlets across India. This is a great way to build relationships with editors, publishers, producers, directors, etc.
