Testimonials
“Lori has created beautiful content complementing Gate 1 Travel tour packages. The work she has put into researching and documenting her tours and highlighting the packages has you ready to pack your bags for your next adventure.”
Lori Sweet and Sylvio Roy of Voyage Writers, have been contributing writers & photographers to MilesGeek.com for several years. As a reader of travel writing I always look forward to receiving their submissions, as they embody one of things I look for most in travel writing, a sense of place.
When I finish reading an article by Lori and Sylvio I can taste the food and hear the voices of the location that they have visited. In addition, their photos place a reader in the center of the story. As an editor, I appreciate their professional and timely submissions that follow through on the proposed concept for each article.
Lori Sweet and Sylvio Roy from Voyage Writers aren’t just enthusiastic members of our wine tasting community, they’re also terrific writers and tasters. They have excellent palates and they know how to translate what’s in the glass to what’s on the page or screen. If I were to describe this dynamic duo as a wine, they’d be a classic Bordeaux blend or Meritage, each complementing the other with their tasty take on the wine world. I’d also give them a score of 98 points out of 100 😉
