Hey Nick, just stumbled on your blog from David Miller’s site. I have a quick freelancing question that you may be able to answer — I hope you don’t consider it a nuisance. How do you go about blogging/writing for NGT Intelligent Travel? I’ve been trying to figure that submission process out for a while, and I just can’t crack it!

Going to read some of your pieces now. Longtime dream of mine to go to Cairo!

Hi Simone, nice to meet you. Not a nuisance at all – I’ve sent you a message on Matador.

Glad you liked the Cairo taxi piece! And if you ever do come to Cairo, make sure to hit me up.
