New Video Series: Portrait Of A Travel Writer

Nice video. I drew a lot of inspiration from Robin’s short video that he made after his RTW trip. Then I took my own, and experienced what he talks about with regard to readers responding to his writing. It only made me want to write more, see more, do more, so I could share with them (especially when they said family would prevent them from ever taking such a trip themselves).

Oh, and he turned me on to Bedouin Soundclash in that video too!

Fantastic video. Great series. Love seeing travel writers present the profession with truth and passion. Would enjoy seeing videos featuring the Matador editors and other folks like Kira Salak or Grant Lingel.

It’s a dream job if your dream is to travel, not if your dream is to make money. So true, and something a lot of people don’t seem to understand! Great vid, and awesome series idea.

Sweeeeeeet! Robin oozes inspiration, and fantastic production Ian.

Travel writing is definitely not a get-rich-quick while traveling on someone’s dime scheme.

You have to truly love it. It requires resilience.

I loved it!! Looking forward to viewing more of these.

Awesome series, I love it.

Loved it. The words. The production. Everything.

Great job, Ian.

Awww such an inspiring video.

Very cool! Look forward to the next ones!
