Travel-WRITINGINTERNSHIPs IN BALI

Are you a wordsmith with permanently itchy feet and a thirst for adventure? Do you want to spend your

uni holidays living on an island paradise writing and publishing a travel guide?

This Australian summer, Global Hobo is offering all-inclusive travel-writing internships in the uber-hip

Balinese province of Canggu.

Over the course of a month, a team of word-savvy hobos will be given cross-cultural language training

and intensive writing tutelage focused on travel features, editorials and reviews courtesy of writers and editors from VICE, Surfing Life, Huffington Post, Your Friends House, and, of course, Global Hobo. In their free time, interns will be exploring every nook

and cranny of southern Bali so they can put together a comprehensive destination guide and release it as

an eBook for sale online.

THE PREMISE

Daily travel-writing workshops with a range of industry professionals

40 hours of small-group Bahasa Indonesia language classes

Two Balinese cultural classes (woodcarving and dance)

Dorm-style accommodation in a Balinese mansion or villa, complete with WiFi and a pool

Airport transfer on arrivalSweet deals on surfboard, motorbike and helmet hire

What’s more, if you’re a journalism or communications student, participation in the

internship gives you the potential to receive a full subject’s worth of university credit as part of your

university’s Work Integrated Learning program. That being said, the internships are open to anyone who

wishes to broaden their experience and writing portfolio irrespective of year or tertiary enrolment.
