Description
To many of us, travel writing sounds like the absolute dream job. You get to go to exotic and interesting places, sit on beaches, try the local food, and on top of that you get paid to be there!  Sean from Follow the Camino interviewed two travel writers, Rupert Parker and Portia Jones, who have plenty of experience in the industry. They discuss the realities of the job, the good and the bad, and all the hard work. They also talk about what things have been like over the past few months. Coronavirus has had a massive impact on the travel industry. It was very interesting to hear their perspectives.     Check out our blog post on this webinar! or You can watch the Youtube video of the interview! Please subscribe if you like our content.
