Help support conscious travel and food writing!
Curiosity Magazine runs thanks to freelancers. Every single one of our stories, from reported features to personal essays, comes from a freelance journalist, writer, or photographer. We strive to work with freelancers from around the world, so we can bring you local tips, context, and perspective you might not get otherwise. Your donation goes 100 percent toward paying these freelancers. Every dollar helps. Contribute here.
We believe that people affected by issues, or who call a place home, should be reporting on those issues and places. That’s not always possible–even in places like the United States–because of barriers to journalism education, Internet access, language skills, translation, connections to editors, and many other reasons. We’re starting a scholarship fund for aspiring travel writers around the world in 2020. To contribute specifically to that fund, click here and make a note on your donation specifying ‘scholarship.’
