articles-hans-tammemagiI’ve written many hundreds of articles and am still cranking them out enthusiastically. Recipient of Travel Media Association Canada awards (2019, 2018, 2017, 2015, 2008, 2007, 2006) and London travel writing awards (2009, 2010). In 2019, I was awarded the Best Tourism article about Ottawa for A Moving Ceremony at the Memorial Chamber and best Environmental Feature for An Old Growth Battlefield. I write two columns: Footloose Travel Log for Pearl magazine and Canada’s First Peoples for roadstories.ca. Formerly, I wrote the monthly Eco-Watch column for Singapore Airlines in-flight magazine, a monthly environment column for Vancouver Sun newspaper and was correspondent for Indian Country Today, New York.

I write for magazines like Canadian Geographic, Ensemble Vacations, Westworld, Zoomer, Explore, Canadian Living, Boulevard, Pearl, Soar, Northwest Travel, Canada’s History Magazine, Indian Country Today, and for newspapers including the Globe and Mail, Vancouver Sun and Province, Buffalo News, Montreal Gazette, the Toronto Star and the National Post.
