Masters in Travel Writing

Blogging as a Discovery Instrument 

Do researchers discover destination knowledge or create it?  This question has been at the heart of our discussions over the last five years and gradually, through conferences and meetings, travel writing has emerged as both a method of inquiry for us in tourism and area studies and as a professional practice for the synthesis of new knowledge, thanks, often, to the use of narrative.  This travel writing blog is our discovery instrument and our research practice that will yield new knowledge on place, destination image, visitor practices and tourism knowledge management. We have been teaching this on Masters programmes for Travel Writers and Content Authors across Europe and the UK. 

Routledge, Taylor & Francis

In 2023 we published our ideas on literary travel writing with Routledge, Taylor & Francis, as a textbook and research monograph. To help lecturers to integrate this book into their teaching, learning and assessment we released a Teaching Pack on this magazine blog during January 2024, you can find and follow the instalments from the circle link below...
