Travel Writing Scholarship

Sorry for the last minute post about this, but I just learned of it from a wonderful organization that I'm a part of - Couchsurfing.org - and it is a scholarship for writers who love to travel. Keep in mind that this will be a raw travel experience (no mints on the pillow) so only apply if you're up for traveling to and writing about Istanbul.

The deadline is March 28th so there's no time to waste if you're interested.

Applicants must be 18 years or older.

To apply you must craft a 500 word travel essay on one of the following topics:

Responsible Travel
Journey in an Unknown Culture
My Big Adventure

Find out all of the details at WorldNomads.com .
