Most likely, just writing off the top of your head and then rereading and editing your post will surely result in a literary product that is interesting and engaging. With your great passion, the readers may feel they are right there with you.

So, how can you make money out of it, you ask. Here's how.

1. Become a Travel Writer On Your Own Blog

Build a website or use a free blog site to begin with. The content of your site will be, of course, about your travels and adventures. Lots of people find travel adventures very appealing and some even use it as an escape from their day to day lives.

If your content is great, using a few optimizations, link building sites, and SEO tricks, you will rank high in the search engine ranking and gain audience members. People will flock to your site and some may become regular readers if you update often enough with interesting posts.

You can gain money from this through advertisements placed in your site. Advertisement systems such as AdSense from Google, Chitika, and others are a great way to get pre made ads for your blog. Or you can be an affiliate marketer for products and services relevant to your content. All of this creates passive streams of income.

2. Write About Your Travels On Other People's Blogs

If you don't want the complexities of building your own site, you can write for other people's site.

Some people are just too busy or too lazy to put articles on their sites so they will happily pay other people, like you, to create articles for them. Short articles, ranging from 450 to 700 words, are sufficient. If they like you enough, they will regularly ask you to make create more content.

3. Sell Your Travel Writing Stories To Magazines and Newspapers

Newspaper work is quite risky because payment is not assured, that being said, it is a good way to earn extra money.

Have a list of magazines, newspapers, or any other kind of reading material that may need content for their publication Your articles don't have to just be about traveling they can be about anything you want. Contact them and propose a deal that you will provide articles and stories for a nominal fee.

Of course, these publishing outfits will need some samples or something to substantiate your competence. You can give them samples and if they like it enough, they may just make you an offer you can't refuse.
