Fields & Stations is a travel magazine of good writing for curious travellers, using small cultural details to tell bigger stories about the places we move through.
What grabbed us about this issue...
Issue 7 takes the road trip as its subject and Frederica Bruniera’s journey from the Arctic to Tierra del Fuego sets the scale immediately. We enjoyed how Kanika Gupta’s Delhi to Kabul route via Pakistan sits alongside it. The visa nightmares are part of the story rather than an aside, which feels honest. The Lake Sevan piece rounds things out with the quietest argument in the issue. A 70km trip that shifts your perspective entirely makes the case that distance is beside the point.
Who’s Fields & Stations for?
Fields & Stationsis one for when you want travel writing that earns its observations. Each issue focuses on the small cultural details, a shop, a sandwich, a local ritual, that open up into something larger. The writing is curious rather than aspirational. This would suit you if you find most travel journalism too polished and want something that sits with the difficulty of being somewhere new. Think of it as a literary travel companion rather than a guide. It’s one to reach for when you want to go somewhere in your imagination without leaving the room.
