Worldwide Opines in Issue Nine

January 5, 2013 by Brandi Cornelius

Ola, travel pups! The contents of Issue Nine have us all sorts of excited for a myriad of reasons, but most of all it’s because we have secret mob stories from a reliable source who wishes to use a pseudonym for the time being. I mean, that’s cool, right? We’re also thrilled to share Vicki Valosik’s essay about what could happen if you invite an international student home for Thanksgiving, because it really encompasses the exact urge we hope we’re […]

Mentally Celebrate With Issue Eight (Hey, it rhymes.)

November 7, 2012 by Brandi Cornelius

Welcome to Issue Eight, travel pups! As always, we’re giddy about the shower of thunderously delicious pieces that blew in this month. In fact, we’d go so far as to say we have some gale-force enthusiasm built up over this issue. If you’re wondering about all the storm-related wordplay, it’s because this is a special HURRICANE ISSUE!! (Kind of. Many of the submissions we received this month are Sandy-related, and who doesn’t love a good theme?) We’ve got hurricane pieces […]

October 5, 2012 by Brandi Cornelius

We couldn’t be prouder of this month’s collection of global storytellers, travel pups! We’ve successfully stretched our toes out into wider waters, and have included many internal journeys to compliment our tales of physical travel. We’re particularly honored to offer Gabriella Berman’s moving essay on losing her special needs daughter, and her resulting struggle regarding the loss of a particular type of motherhood. We’re also thrilled to share Paula Cruickshank’s journey into White House correspondence, as displayed through her first […]

Welcome back, travel pup babies! We’re quite pleased you’ve come back to view the likes of Issue Six, because (not to be overly grand, but) it’s probably the most amazing collection of travel and culture stuff you’re likely to find on the entire interweb. This month, we’ve got a scene from a Soviet hospital; a romp through a nudist beach in Croatia; a deep breath at a cabin in New Hampshire; an emotional airplane descent into New Zealand; a first […]

Come Jive with Issue Five

August 7, 2012 by Brandi Cornelius

Issue Five already, huh? Oh, how time flies when we’re spending it with the likes of you lovely literary pups. This month brings stories from Azerbaijan, Nigeria, Alaska, from Europe as a whole, from the insides of big ol’ books, from Cape Cod, from inside the mad minds of a duo of Scottish videographers, from India (also here), Belgium, Oman, Ireland, Uganda, Laos, and from Brazil (where a Mormon missionary is nearly – chillingly – stabbed). Excuse us while we […]

We’re excited about all the sharing of lives and cultures that’s happening, and encourage each of you valuable paradigm-holders to submit a piece of writing, photo essay, or short film that may help others to understand the place you come from in a new, deeper, shiny (or not) […]

The Hindustan Hub Issue

June 4, 2012 by Brandi Cornelius

Welcome to Issue Three, travel pups! This month, we’re excited to include essays from the likes of an American doctor in an Indian emergency room, an Indian MBA student learning to recognize American currency (the hard way), and a four-wheelin’ Indian woman on a cattle ranch in Australia. You’ll also find a beaauuuuutiful videostory of an Australian guy’s adventures in India and beyond, which (be warned) might make you feel like a wee bit of a jerk if you sit […]

Reaching Out from the Inside

May 5, 2012 by Susanna Wang

Apologies, dear readers, for seemingly falling off the face of this Earth of ours. It so happens that, while we didn’t quite fall off, both editors found ourselves doing the unthinkable: re-entering the places that would make us, respectively, unforeign. That’s right. It’s that time in the flow of things in which we regroup and redefine next goals. For Susanna Wickes, it’s a bit of tourguidery in her homeland of Scotland, before landing in Inner Mongolia for her next adventure […]
