Welcome to the website of Bruce Holmes, an Australian freelance travel writer and photographer whose articles and images have appeared in a range of publications around the world.

A full member of the Australian Society of Travel Writers (ASTW), Bruce can supply a variety of travel features and photographs, some of which can be seen on this website.

So how did Bruce finish up as a member of the Australian Society of Travel Writers (ASTW) you might wonder? Well Bruce did much of his travelling before he was old enough to remember it. With his father in Britain's Royal Navy and his mother being Australian he was always on the move. Before he was six years old.

With a Bachelor of Arts degree from Sydney University, Bruce became a teacher of secondary English and spent many a vacation departing for foreign climes before deciding to launch himself into travel writing and photography.

As he says, "After all that time reading other people's words, I decided I should be writing a few of my own."

Whether trekking along the Great Wall of China, pitching in as an eco-tourist volunteer on Montague Island, or taking a ghost walk in old Quebec, Bruce's travel writing and photographs have captured not only the places he's visited but also the experiences of the traveller.

His travel articles and photographs have appeared in a broad range of publications around the world, details of which can be seen by clicking on the Client List for travel writing or photos in the menu bar below.

From December 2007 to March 2008 his published pieces appeared in The Sunday Telegraph in London, The Sun-Herald in Sydney, The South China Morning Post in Hong Kong, The Edmonton Journal in Canada, Vacations magazine in Sydney, Hunter Lifestyle magazine in Newcastle and Tiger Tales - the Tiger Airways inflight magazine.
