Spin for a Story Idea

Give the wheel a spin and get a prompt. Most great travel stories start with one small moment.

One spin. One memory. One story.

Spin the wheel, think of the moment it brings to mind, then write it your way. A few honest paragraphs are all it takes.

Your prompt

Spin the wheel to get your story idea.

Questions

Good to know

Everything you might want to ask before you submit.

Do I need an account?

No. Just fill in the form. We only ask for your email so we can reach you about your story. It is never published.

How long until my story is published?

Every story is read by a person, so it can take a few days. We will only publish stories that pass our review.

Will you edit my story?

We may fix spelling and trim length. We never change what you meant to say.

Can I add photos?

You can add one photo with your story. It must be a photo you took yourself.

Will you share it on Instagram?

The best stories may be shared on @dubaiitinerary. If you give your handle and tick the box, we tag you.
