Team Culture

We are a small, distributed team built around editorial independence and slow craft. We meet in person twice a year, usually somewhere we are writing about.

What we value

• Specific, grounded writing over generic travel prose
• Curiosity about second cities and overlooked regions
• Honest assessments, including negative ones
• Generous editing and clean handoffs
• A reasonable workweek

How we work

Mostly asynchronous, with weekly editorial calls. Field trips are planned three months out. Drafts are reviewed by two editors before publishing.

Benefits

Annual travel budget for fieldwork, healthcare contribution for full-time staff, four weeks of paid leave plus public holidays, and a stipend for press accreditation.
