Write For Passports and Adventures

Passports and Adventures accepts guest posts from other bloggers. These can be stand-alone pieces, or I have a blog series entitled “Best and Worst Holidays” for which I am happy to receive guest posts.

Who can guest post on Passports and Adventures? 

Anyone can submit stories of their travels to be featured on Passports and Adventures as long as they are well written, and adhere to my guidelines – which you’ll find in the next section. Blogging isn’t for everyone, so it’s not a requirement that you do have your own blog – if you do, that’s great, I’ll link back to you from here. 

Please note that travel stories aren’t limited to only when you go on big trips. Local trips and pieces like “10 coffee-shops in Dublin you should visit”, or “Things to do with kids in Paris” all fall under the scope of travel. Lifestyle articles may be accepted from time to time, however I prefer to host travel-related posts.

WRITING GUIDELINES FOR GUEST POSTS:

  • Authentic – I cannot accept any piece of writing that has been published anywhere else on the Internet. Google doesn’t like it and I listen when they talk. That said, you can submit a rewritten piece you have already published, so long as it is sufficiently different from the original one.
  • I’d like your stories to be a minimum of 500 words please, unless it’s a photoessay.
  • I will require 3 photographs (minimum) and preferably landscape. Original files are also preferred. Please try not to submit pictures from your phone unless they are the original files, and do not resize them before sending them across. You should also be happy with at least one of your pictures being used to create the social media graphics for the post (including Pinterest, Twitter and Facebook graphics, all of which will be created by me, Passports and Adventures, using Canva).
  • You can send across 1-2 links to other blog posts you’d like included in the post, so long as they relate to the post you are submitting.
  • You can also send videos, or embed codes for videos you’ve uploaded to Youtube. 
  • If you would like to submit a photoblog / photo essay then I need at least 300 words and at least ten photographs.
  • Please also send a profile picture of yourself and a short Bio including links to your social profiles and blog.
