A travelogue is a truthful account of an
individual’s traveling experiences, usually in
the past tense and in the first person.
The word travelogue supposedly comes from
a combination of the two words travel and
monologue.
In turn, the word monologue comes from the
Greek words monos (alone) and logos
(speech, word). A travelogue is then, in its
most basic form, a spoken or written account
of an individual’s experiences traveling,
which usually appears in the past tense, in
the first person, and with some
verisimilitude.
A travelogue is not academic writing, so you
need not make a formal argument and
present evidence—keep formal language at
bay. A travelogue is not a write-up for a
tourism board or a marketing agency, so
don’t try to “sell” the destination to your
readers. A travelogue is not a guidebook or a
blog post, so you need not be helpful, list
“the top 10 best restaurants,” or offer
practical travel tips or suggestions.

Rather, a travelogue is a creative narrative of


your experiences traveling.

Example
your taste because you won’t find typical vacation areas
such as resorts, beaches, and more here and there.
However, when you look deeper into the place you’ll find
more than what you have expected. I’m going to show
you how beautiful this city is with its local experiences
based on what I have experienced during my travel to this
city. I have been going back and forth from Valencia City
to Davao City because we spent our vacations on my
grandparents’ house on my mother’s side. During those
days, we never miss to explore the beauty of this city. Our
first stop is Mulig, Toril, Davao City because that’s where
my grandparents live. Davao is known for its abundance
of Durian it is even acknowledged as the Durian Capital of
the Philippines. The memory that I could not forget was
when I first dried Durian and all I can say is it was so
delicious. The creaminess and thick consistency of durian
brings fireworks in my mouth that made me crave for
more.
