Travel Writing Tips From Don George

I asked the veteran travel writer and editor for his advice about how emerging storytellers can make their mark on the travel writing scene.

Replying to Curtorim Congress MLA Aleixo Reginaldo Lourenco's question on fake travel agencies, the Saligao MLA said action against the 10 agencies, under relevant provisions of the Goa Registration of Tourist Trade Act, is under way.

Around 100 small and big travel agencies operate in Goa.
