Sidetracked started as a website but recently moved into print with a premium quality bi-annual journal, and we're looking at additional digital channels too. The stories are told by the men and women who undertake them, accompanied by incredible photography or video. Sidetracked is an adventure travel brand that captures and presents the experience of some of the most breathtaking adventures taking place throughout the world. And online there's Sidetracked, a magazine about exploration and expeditions (see below). And though not strictly travel, there are a few surf/skate magazines out there which instil a sense of wanderlust, especially Acid. We've been following Boat since their first issue on Sarajevo. We even got to publish one of Marcelo's poems for the first time.Ĭan you recommend any other travel publications (print or online) that we should read? The second is a piece we commissioned by LA-based poet/translator David Shook who wrote about his journey to Equatorial Guinea to find Marcelo Ensema Nsang, a poet whose work he'd become mildly obsessed with. It's difficult to pick, but two seem to have stood out: the first is Barnaby Rogerson's essay about the current state of travel writing. Tell us about the feature you're most proud of The magazine's art director is Pieter Stander, who's worked with us numerous times before. I left university in 2009, and have been writing, editing and working in magazine publishing ever since. Amy has been editing another travel magazine for the best part of a decade and used to work in book publishing. Who works on it and what are their backgrounds?Īmy Sohanpaul and I edit Renegade together. It's exciting to live in a time when, thanks to the internet, print is an unknown again and there are plenty of people out there doing wonderful things with it. We're also constantly inspired by the ever-growing market for independent magazines. We were seeing so much excellent work going unnoticed and we wanted Renegade to become a platform on which these stories could be published. We also wanted to bring the traditional sense of literary travel writing to the fore, and bring it up to date.
Renegade sets out to give an honest impression of the world, to inspire people to travel, of course, but also to go back to the reason we travel in the first place – to attempt to understand a place by seeing it first hand.
