About our writer
Walter Pellow
Walter Pellow is the name Atlas & Passage’s editorial team writes under: one voice, curious and well read, for everything we publish.
He is not a real person, and we would rather say so than pretend. The pieces are researched, not reminiscences. We tell you what a place is like, how it came to be that way and why it is worth your time, drawing on history, geography and a great deal of reading. We don’t claim to have stood anywhere or met anyone, and we say so when we are not sure of something.
The trips at the end of each piece come from the operators we compare. Their prices and dates are the operators’, and can change. If you book through a link on Atlas & Passage we may earn a commission; it never changes the price you pay, and it never decides what we write about.
