In today's episode, you'll hear an excerpt from ON MEXICAN TIME by Tony Cohan, written in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico 1985. That lead me to introduce another author, one I've met whilst in Baja California early in 2022, a funny fella and quite the slow and steady wanderer, Graham MackIntosh. I talk about the different types of travel writing, from trip reports, articles, blogs and long and far-reaching memoirs etc. You’ll also hear from Kristen Van Tassel, published on the Wanderlust website, and it’s her travel vignette, a moment on a bus in Mexico. https://wanderlust-journal.com/2021/10/19/border-crossing-by-bus/
