Pitches wanted (tourism, destinations, game changers) (WORLDWIDE) | ~10-20 cents per word

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: ROOTED 

JoAnna Haugen, Founder of Rooted, is looking for pitches:

I am seeking pitches for two verticals for consumer travel storytelling platform launching 2023: Burning Issues address critical tourism issues. Consider the scope issue and solutions / current status. Destination-specific or general. Ideal to bring in voices of affected people. Not how-to.

Also Game Changers: Focus on person / people doing notable work in some way related to tourism. Highlight the person, what they are doing, why they're a game changer. The game changer should be actively included in the article, with quotes.

Pitch with <Section>: <Pitch subject> in email. Open to working with aspiring writers. Generally 500-900 words. Pay is €100. Email: content@ethicaltravelportal.com

Open to international writers? Yes! Open to all! Founders are Norwegian and Nepalese. I'm based out of Tunisia. We definitely welcome, and want, writers from everywhere!
