Book your flight and pack your bags for your next adventure. We know you love to travel just like we do. Your post in the Pacific gives you incredible access to beautiful countries you never imagined.
Are you planning a trip to Thailand? Have you seen the beautiful rice fields of Bali? Reached the top of Mt. Fuji in record time? Have you toasted with soju while eating Korean barbecue in Seoul? Have you sunbathed on Guam's beautiful beaches? We'd love to hear your thoughts!
Whether you've traveled to faraway lands or stayed close to home and explored nearby, share your adventure stories with us. Stars and Stripes would like to be your travel companion. Write about your own paradise. Do it and we'll make you famous! Our annual Destination Paradise focuses on the travels of our community members, and we want to feature you in the 2024-2025 edition.
It doesn't have to be an exotic island with pristine beaches — perhaps your paradise is a secluded hiking trail, a quiet park in a crowded city, a colorful snorkeling spot, or the fashion district of your favorite destination.
We want to hear about the places that are important to you, the places you feel compelled to share with others.
Your story will not only be published in Stripes Destination Paradise magazine distributed at Pacific bases in September, but also published by Stripes Japan, Stripes Okinawa, Stripes Guam and Stripes Korea. It will also be published in local newspapers and websites. japan.stripes.com, Okinawa.Stripes.com, guam.stripes.com and korea.stripes.com.
So, get on the journey, put pen to paper (or hands to keyboard) and start writing! Long or short, have fun writing and don't forget to send us some photos!
Submit your story and photos below Email: paradise@stripes.com By July 10th!
