Needed - Join the group of contributors to WAVEJourney.com
WJ is looking for articles to feature on our website and in our monthly newsletter. More
specifically, we'd like first-hand travel experiences, travel recommendations, travel tips, and hotel
reviews.

In addition, we also print articles on, food, wine, health, golf courses, history, and culture. The
thing to remember here is that the focus of the article has to be of interest or benefit to women.

To get a sense of what WJ is after, sign-up for the free monthly newsletter (via sign-up box at
top right of home page: www.wavejourney.com), browse through some of the stories you'll find
at the Travellers' Tales link: www.wavejourney.com/travellerstales.html and the Travel Tips link:
www.wavejourney.com/traveltips.html.
