My Travel Evolution

My first Pink Pangea Feature Writer story examines the stages through which my travel has transported me.  From childhood travel to college travel to friend travel to tour travel and finally, to solo travel.  Please take some time to examine the current stage of your travel evolution.  If you are not currently travelling, what stage most strongly appeals to you?  Obviously, some stages cannot be relived, but I'm certain friend travel, tour travel, and solo travel will feature prominently for the rest of my life.

My First Travel Publication

This blog is my first foray into the non academic genre of writing.  After writing a dissertation, which requires edits and revisions from committee members, it's refreshing to have an unknown audience.

I discovered Pink Pangea on Facebook.  I had made a comment on one of the many travel pages I frequent, and they responded to my comment.  I checked out their page, where they post calls for a range of travel writing features.  I messaged the women who run the page, Rachel and Jaclyn, and received an immediate response and interest in my story.

I wrote about the influence my study abroad experience had on my future travels, especially my recent solo trip.  Please click here to read the article, and I hope to present you with some more publications in the near future!
