Atiqah Mokhtar •  Jul 19, 2019

HHWT is almost four years old now, and it's been an amazing journey thus far ?

Along the way, we've come to learn a lot of things, but one thing has really become the cornerstone behind our work: the amazing community that makes up our audience. We are continuously humbled by our readers - not only because you help us provide information that in turn helps other Muslim travellers, but also because you share YOUR amazing travel stories with us that genuinely inspire us and others to go out and see the world!

At HHWT, our founders (Melvin, Suzana and Elaine) have always upheld the importance of our community. It's a fundamental understanding that the collective knowledge of our whole community is the most precious resource of information that needs to be shared. In other words, having a community that shares with each other will always be more powerful than our own individual efforts. So we truly hope you can help us continue our mission to inspire and help Muslim travellers go out and see the world!

With that said, here's a quick recap of how you can help us continue inspiring Muslim travellers:

1. Let us know when there are errors in our content

We do our best to provide information that is up-to-date and accurate when we publish content. However, things often change and we may miss something (for example, a halal eatery may close down, or perhaps the menu changes). If you spot anything within our articles that may be outdated or inaccurate, please do let us know! You can comment on the article in question, reach out to us on Facebook or Instagram, or email us.

2. Share with us when you find new eateries

While we try to always stay on top of the latest developments, the fact of the matter is, the community often finds out faster! So whether you encounter a halal eatery on your travels, know of a local halal eatery that's just opened or an existing eatery that just got halal-certified, please do share! You can do so through all the same channels mentioned above ?

Please also don't be shy to join our Facebook Community Group! It's a great place to share and in turn, ask for tips regarding anything related to travel and Muslim-related travel needs.

3. Share your stories with us

One of the best parts of our jobs is reading the travel stories you share with us. If you have a story idea you'd like to pitch or just want to share your tips or experiences when travelling, drop us an email at [email protected]!

4. Support our content by liking, sharing, and commenting on our content

The likes, shares and comments are a huge part in helping get our content out to a wider audience and hopefully inspire more Muslim travellers out there. They are also a hugely appreciated show of encouragement that keeps us going ?

5. Remember that you’re an ambassador of peace

This is one that always bears worth reminding (for ourselves too!). When we travel, we strive to build relationships with others and we hope you continue to do the same. It's also a great reminder to be kind and respectful to all - be it when we're travelling, or even if we're just interacting with each other online ?

To end this, we'd just like to say, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU. Thank you for helping us to improve, for sharing information, and for helping the community. It's truly an honour and a privilege to have you as our readers and to be able to interact with you and hear your stories.

The HHWT Team.
