Mick Jagger, the front man of the Rolling Stones, once said: “If I would not succeed in music, I’d probably become a travel writer”. Indeed writing about travel is probably one of the most exciting jobs out there.

We are therefore looking for a dedicated person who will be in charge of all of this (and more…) as part of our great team.
