The BlackTravels.com Travel Interview

Now sharing your travel story is fast & easy!

I'm thrilled that you've decided to submit a trip report to BlackTravels.com. Here are a few tips to increase the chance that your report will be published:

1. Eventhough you are filling out a questionnaire, Please remember to answer as though you are being interviewed. Use complete sentences! "Yes" and "No" answers just aren't helpful.

2. It’s important to be as specific and detailed as possible. The stories chosen to be published to the BlackTravels.com website must paint a vivid picture of a travel experience and of a specific location. Don’t be afraid to voice your opinion!

3. Please be current! Although we're always happy to read about your experiences, We prefer to publish trip reports for voyages that have taken place within the last 5 years. The world changes fast! We want to give prospective travelers current and up-to-date impressions of travel locations.

4. Don't forget to upload a travel photo. Landscape shots are OK, but we really prefer photos of you enjoying your journey. Want to send more than one photo? E-mail up to 10 photos to submissions@blacktravels.com.

Ok, get to writin' because I can't wait to read all about your trip!

Happy Travels,

-Kesha Bruce
