We’re looking for one kickass, short-form travel blogger who fits this bill:
- Perfect spelling & gramm-er (I know, I know … this should go without saying)
- You fancy yourself a bit of a smartass and convey it in your writing
- Love offbeat/interesting/funny travel news and tidbits (essentially anything in our Sidelines column)
- Are familiar with WordPress
- You can source your own Creative Commons-licensed photos (we can help with this)
- Familiar with basic image editing (cropping/resizing photos and how to quickly screenshot videos)
… and is interested in:
- Updating our ongoing News + Sidelines column
- Writing short-form blog posts (approximately 75-100 words), each with a single photo
- Writing two posts every weekday
As these are very brief posts, the time commitment is minimal – half an hour or less per day. Payment is $6 USD per post (roughly $240 every 4 weeks), payable at the end of each month via PayPal.
Your posts will also feature an author’s byline (including a 2-3 sentence bio) where you’re free to promote anything you like: your blog, Twitter account … anything at all really.

- Your Twitter username (if you have an active account)
- Please do not send a resume or attachments of any kind
- Perhaps most importantly: keep your e-mail as brief (and witty) as possible! =)
