I went on a binge at a Chapters bookstore while I was in Vancouver. One of the mags I picked up was Glimpse. I’d never seen it before.
glimpse: it’s your world. get acquainted
It is a quarterly mag associated with the Glimpse Foundation.
I love the tag…
It’s Your World. Get Acquainted. How true is that? And there are so many ways to do do that…
Glimpse Quarterly is an international news, travel and culture magazine that features compelling narratives written by youth living abroad, on themes ranging from quarry divers in France to taxicabs in Kyrgyzstan to genocide in Central Africa. With depth, breadth and intimacy, we tackle the international issues that no one talks about and delve into the daily cultural realities that no one sees.

On the magazine they say that the bulk of Glimpse content is unsolicited. They take submissions for their website, then select a few for the magazine. They prefer submissions be sent my email, but also take them via postal, and fax.

Photographers, do not be shy. There are some great photos in here and a section called “Living Lens” I really liked their GeoCulture section and the Glimpse Directory of travel resources for those interested in study abroad programs. This is a thoughtful magazine and worth checking out.
