I sat down and spoke to British Freelance Travel Writer, Lauren Jarvis about her career and her love for travel.
Lauren and I discussed her life journey, which has led her to write about travel, wildlife, and conservation. We spoke about where that initial love for travel started. She mentioned her backpacking trip to Australia being a transformative moment.
I spoke to Lauren about how she got started in writing and talked to me about what it takes to put in the research to write a good article. From the discussion, you will see it can take months to write a good story.
Lauren's work has appeared in National Geographic Traveller (UK), National Geographic Traveler, The Times, The Daily Mail and The Independent.
She spoke to me about her love for wildlife and writing about conservation. One of our discussion was based on zoos conservations.
Her success has also led her to interview Sir David Attenborough's on three separate occasions, Dame Jane Goodall and Steve Backshall.
We spoke about the state of travel journalism, and where it might go with the influx of influencers. We talked about whether technology has a part to play when it comes to writing.
Lauren also spoke to me about some of her memorable places. She also talked to me about what she likes to do when the pen is down, and there is no travelling involved. Plus we discussed her plans for the future.
I thoroughly enjoyed our talk. Lauren has had some significant success in her career, and I wish her the best of luck going forward.
