| We’re thrilled to announce the longlist for the 2025 New Travel Writer of the Year competition. Head judge Hilary Bradt has read every single entry. She comments: “As always I settled down to read through the many entries inspired by the theme A HastyExit in happy anticipation. And as always, I was not disappointed. What a lot of scary but ultimately great adventures so many of you have had! Sometimes a hasty exit saved you from attack, but others from embarrassment or something as mundane as catching a bus. There were so many gripping, well-written stories that I failed to cut the initial list down to the usual ten so here are fifteen worthy longlisted stories.” The Longlist Later or Sooner Cold War Camera A Dance with Duende How to Treat a Woman Trail of the Tempest Treasure Travel Waterfalls - the Best White Noise Machines? Exit Sign Out of the Gobi Desert A Vital Warning Ignored The Kyrgyz Truck Driver Beijing to Bangkok Return from Egg Island The Birds of Auschwitz Silent Tides A Sweet Lesson What happens next?

In mid-January we will announce our three finalists, who will each be invited to the Edward Stanford Travel Writing Awards evening in March, so please check back again then.
