Travel Scholarships to Southeast Asia
I think I may have posted about this in a past year, but it’s worth noting again:
It’s GRANT TIME!
This opportunity is open to students, emerging and non-professional writers and lovers of travel looking for a career change. The scholarship is open to all nationalities, however, you must have a high degree of proficiency in written English. The opportunity is designed to give you a taste of what it’s like to be a travel writer on the road, so you must be comfortable doing some travel on your own. Minimum age 18 by the date the scholarship application closes (April 23, 2012). A current passport with at least six months before expiry. You must be available as per the dates set out. Please note these dates are not changeable in any way; you must be available for the entire assignment. You should be an exceptional writer with a lust for adventure travel, a desire to experience new cultures (and eat them!) and above all, a burning desire to become a professional travel writer! Deadline April 23, 2012.
This sounds wonderful! Too bad I didn't know about it before I booked my trip to Hong Kong! Everything is already paid for 🙁
Best of luck! Hopefully you'll have better luck with it than I have had with my stipends and grants. :\
Oh no, Susan! I'm so sorry! 🙁 Wish I'd known about it sooner.
Yeah, I have no need of a grant – at least not for this reason – right now. It's more for my peeps. LOL
