Lori Allen:
Helping People Earn Money While Traveling

"As the head of AWAI's Get-Paid-to-Travel Division, I always say: Nothing beats travel writing for its perks and nothing beats copywriting for its pay checks.  Traveling the world as a travel writer or photographer who gets paid to explore far away cities and then write about and photograph them for magazines, newspapers and website is glamorous.  Restaurants, hotels and tourist boards tend to roll out the red carpet for writers and photographers bringing them good press.  But it sure is nice to come home to a big pay check or royalties from a sales letter you wrote a few years ago that's still mailing today.  I think a combination of these two jobs – copywriting and travel writing -- is ideal."
