We have a number of recurring post styles on Books and Bao (although we're very open to fresh ideas) for example:
Bookstores Around the World - A review of a favourite bookstore or a collection of bookstores in one neighbourhood or city. For example: '5 Best Bookstores in Berlin' or 'Second Shelf Books - Soho's Hidden Bookstore'. We also love literary guides to cities.

Check our archives for countries or continents we've already covered:
https://booksandbao.com/read-before-you-go/Food Posts - We're open to any kind of food posts, local delicacies, restaurant round-ups, culinary techniques. (We're in particular need of more food posts so this is very much flexible).
