There is no way I would have had the confidence to approach these types of companies unless I felt well equipped and ready to compete with the big guns. The course has given me that confidence but also taught me the winning formula that is needed to get a foot in the door in this hard to crack industry.

The idea of a blog had been suggested to me before, but I hadn’t been ready until I completed this course … The idea of what sort of travel blog became obvious. I am not a 20-year-old American backpacker doing the world on $50 a day, I am a 50-year-old independent, adventure traveller.

I had never considered myself good enough to be a writer of any description. Travel journalism seemed attractive but felt beyond me. I approached The Ultimate Travel Journalism Course with the feeling that it would be good to know how to write about the experiences I encountered while travelling. Being published was not a priority. The real drive was sharing with others.
