Or write your own article and submit it to one of the writing contests 
sponsored by Transitions Abroad magazine:
Transitions Abroad Narrative Travel Writing Contest
Deadline: Dec. 1, 2005
Professionals, freelancers and aspiring travel writers are invited to write 
articles that describe a life-changing travel experience abroad. One of the 
results of cultural immersion travel abroad is the experience of 
epiphanies, which change one's perceptions of the world, of others, and of 
oneself. Translate one of these moments or series of moments into a 
narrative that might offer others inspiration to take the plunge overseas. 
TransitionsAbroad.com will publish the top three winners' entries. Contest 
Prizes: The first-place winner’s entry will receive $250, the second-place 
winning entry $100, and the third-pace winner $75. Any other articles 
selected for publication on TransitionsAbroad.com will receive a $50 
payment. For more info:

Transitions Abroad Annual Student Writer’s Contest

Transitions Abroad hosts an annual Student Writer’s Contest, 
<http://www.transitionsabroad.com/information/writers/student.shtml>http://www.transitionsabroad.com/information/writers/student.shtml. 
All currently enrolled undergraduate and graduate students, students who 
have graduated within the past year, and all students currently on leave

from cultural immersion travel. The winner’s article will be published in 
Transitions Abroad March/April 2006, and the winner will receive a $150 
cash prize.
