Lonely Planet, edited by Peter Grunert, is one of the world’s leading travel magazines, with thirteen international editions. It is informative, entertaining and highly visual, aimed at open-minded, interested travellers, both active and armchair, who enjoy new experiences and learning about places and people, and covers history, culture, wildlife, food and drink, adventure and activities relating to particular destinations. Trip-based pieces writers new to the magazine are particularly encouraged to submit ideas for shorter pieces (500-1,000 words) that deliver a sense of place and tell an engaging tale. Payment varies.
