Decolonising travel:<\/b>\u00a0In this issue, we\u2019re not interested in service articles about ecotourism or sustainable travel, but rather in essays that use travel to complicate our relationships with our surroundings or to redefine natural or constructed environments.

As always, we encourage voices from the global majority and writing that\u2019s aware of power dynamics in travel and challenges imperialist tropes and language. Roughly 1,000-3,000 words.
