Digital Mag Cultures & Cuisines Debuts and is Open for Pitching
The publication is 90 percent freelance-written.
A collaboration between two writers and experienced travelers culminated at the beginning of this month with the debut of digital site Cultures & Cuisines. Described in its Twitter profile as the place where “food anthropology meets travel,” the vibrant site already offers some surprises. One writer describes traveling through the Sahara during the Muslim holiday of Ramadan. In another story, the author tells the story of the now all-but-extinct kamishibai men and their puppet theaters, to which schoolchildren could gain entry with the purchase of snacks the men sold.
Founders Christine Gilbert and Julie Schwietert Collazo are currently publishing two long-form articles a week but will soon be looking to expand this to five a month, almost all of which will come from freelancers.
