CREATOR PROFILE

Mark Orwoll

Journalist

Mark Orwoll spent nearly three decades on the editorial staff of Travel + Leisure, most recently as International Editor — a tenure that gave him not only access to the world's most compelling destinations, but a trained instinct for what makes a travel story worth telling. He has now visited more than 70 countries, and his freelance work carries the authority and precision of a journalist who has been doing this at the highest level for a very long time. His specialty is the overlooked itinerary: the river cruise, the inland waterway, the destination that rewards the traveler willing to look past the headline.

EXPERIENCE WITH PROPS

Mark's editorial portfolio is anchored by decades of experience at the top of the travel journalism profession, with particular depth in river cruising, expedition travel, and international destination reporting. His bylines include Condé Nast Traveler, Hemispheres, and Town & Country, and his work consistently reflects the judgment of a writer who knows the difference between a genuinely good travel experience and a well-marketed one. He is an ideal editorial voice for destinations and travel experiences that benefit from being explained by someone who has actually been there.

Subject Matter
