Journalism - Peter Moore

Journalism seems such a lofty word for what I do.

In my mind, I just go on adventures and write about them.

I don’t have any formal training. I started out as an advertising copywriter and shifted across to travel writing when I got bored writing what finicky clients wanted me to write about.

I began by writing books. And when they proved successful, I was approached by publications like The Sydney Morning Herald in Australia and The Times in the UK to write stuff for them.

I wrote a regular column in Maxim and TNT magazine and was the ‘travel expert’ for the morning show on the Triple J radio station in Australia.

When my daughter was born and my life on the road was curtailed I got a job as the Associate Web Editor for Wanderlust magazine and then Senior Features Writer at LoveEXPLORING.com. I got to experience the other side of the fence. And write a lot of listicles!

Since the pandemic, I’m doing freelance stuff again. You’ll find me on Travmedia. And I’m open to commissions.
