Share Your Travel Story
Along with traveling, do you have a passion for writing?
​
I started this travelogue because I wanted a place to share travel stories in an informal way without the need to validate any literary capabilities with degrees in literature, years of professional experience, portfolios, etc.—I just want to write.
Whether you're a seasoned writer, a journalism major, or a wanderer with stories to tell, feel free to share them here. The Vagabond Gazette was created to connect the traveler community and together compose one big story.​
​
Please note
Although this website is packed with informative content, planned-out itineraries, travel guides, and more, the heart of it lies within the travelogues written by travelers far and wide. These are stories told by vagabonds alike and can be written how ever: they stand alone and should not be confused with the other more structured content in the "Destination" or "Lifestyle" pages. I am not looking for more content writers at the moment, only travelogues.

are too fantastic not to tell."
