Good day, I would like to take this opportunity to place my bid for the above mentioned project. I am an experienced writer from Nairobi, Kenya with an interest in traveling to new and exciting places. Though I have not had the opportunity to travel as much as I would like due to financial constraints, I have had the privilege of visiting a number of neighboring countries such as Tanzania and Uganda and have had lovely experiences in those locations. I also make a point of reading about all the fun and interesting places around the world that I hope to one explore such as Europe, North and South America. I have written on a variety of topics throughout my writing career and I believe this will give me an advantage over individuals who have not been able to garner the same experience. I have had the opportunity to visit a number of places within the country however such as the coastal regions (including Mombasa and Malindi), Nakuru, Machakos, Mwingi, Eldoret, Kakamega, Naivasha, Gil gil, Nyahururu, Maasai Mara among others and have wonderful experiences whilst at those locations. I believe I will add real value to your team of writers should you choose to include me in it. I have mainly used Microsoft word while working on my projects but I am a quick learner and believe that I will be able to grasp the use of CMS in a significantly short period of time. I look forward to your response and would like to thank you for taking the time to look through my proposal. Best Regards

I am agree with this question. But I am one of the person who can do well this project. Travel have to give the pleasure and something new for the people. The purpose is not same with the work as business. It is important how to explain what they want to know.

I have never written a travel article for a company before but would love to travel write about my experiences and adventures I've yet to take. I have used a word processor and have experience of writing academically (non - published). I have currently no experience of the CMS platform. I will submit my work of 10 things to do in Elgin, Scotland within 3 days following the format of examples of articles already submitted.

Good Day. I would like to thank you for the opportunity to be considered for this project. As you can see my name is Bruce. I live in a quaint little coastal town called Melkbosstrand , which means Milk bush beach when translated from Afrikaans to English, it's in the Western Cape of South Africa and lies 32 km north of Cape Town. I'm an aspiring travel writer and have spent a large portion of the last 10 years travelling the globe. My fiancé and I have been to Alaska,Hawaii,most of the Caribbean,South America,Canada,Thailand,Malaysia and so much more , the list would go on forever if I had to mention every single city and country we've set foot on. When it comes to South Africa , I have been to all the provinces and most of the major city centres, I must confess I prefer visiting towns that are considered to be " off the beaten track" as to say. One of these towns I visited last weekend and instead of writing about the top 10 things to do in Melkbosstrand , I would like for you to read the article I wrote about Darling, which is the name of the town. Please make contact with me so that I can send you the article. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind Regards Bruce Daniel Boshoff
