Hello, and thanks for subscribing to Travel Post Monthly.
This month we are covering Street Art, Shark Bait, Fish Cakes, and Old Pizza. Sounds great, doesn’t it? All of our writers are 2nd or 3rd-timers. They’ve been published in our newsletter before.
Daniel Freeman, our first writer, is a retired educator and Science Supervisor from the Florida school system and the Department of Defense. His beautifully photographed story details a road trip with his daughter to photograph murals. You can follow Dr. Dan HERE, where he writes about his travels to view building murals, street art, and other types of road trips. This is Daniel’s second story for Travel Post Monthly.
Ready for some African thrills? Elsa Dixon features some of the most exciting things you can do in South Africa. Elsa is a travel writer, a contributor to stock photography, and an ITWPA member. She is also a part-time music teacher and runs a small group tour company. See her website HERE. This is Elsa’s third story for TPM.
Rebecca’s Restaurant, by Janet Couper is a lovely review of a Nova Scotia South Shore eatery. Her photos capture the scenic beauty and the yummy food. Janet is a freelance writer, artist and true Nova Scotian living in Schooner Cove. This is Janet’s second story for TPM.
Who doesn’t love old pizza? Michelangelo DeSantis takes us on a quick tour of some of the east coast places claiming to be the ‘oldest pizza’ in the U.S. I want to take his tasting tour next time I’m in NYC’s Lower East Side. This is travel writer and photographer Mike’s third story for TPM.
