HINTS: ”We're a 'travel' magazine, but we're not like any other travel magazine. We don't cover destinations, tell you where to stay, how to save money, or what to do. We tell stories about people in the travel and tourism world, run essays on travel thought, and articles on the effect of travel and tourism on a place. We're more of a geographical or anthropological journal that happens to focus on travel than a travel magazine.”
