Travel Journalism FMP Analytical Report Both



 We are all travellers now, all tellers of tales.


 In novelty there is a routine, and with today’s frictionless travel, an easy
familiarity with the exotic. Yet in the best travel writing the steady eye, the
alert ear, catches more: a detail that suggests the whole, a turn of phrase that
opens up hidden lives. To fix the moving world in words is a strange and
remarkable art.


 In the most basic sense, it is simply any nonfiction writing which takes ‘place’
as its central subject matter.


 Unlike ‘travel literature’, ‘travel journalism’ is intrinsically linked to the global
tourism industry. The places described almost always have some established
form as tourist destinations, and the article generally deals with somewhere
that the reader might actually want to visit (‘travel literature’, on the other
hand, may well tackle places that the reader has absolutely no intention of
going to – a war zone, for example).


 But there is another, tighter connection between travel journalism and the
tourism industry: advertising.
A freelancer may have produced a fascinating article on independent hiking in
Azerbaijan with flawless accompanying photos, but a travel magazine would
probably prefer to take a piece on Kenyan safaris: they’ll find it easier to sell
