Social media is a riot of snippets, photos, and links. But where are the real stories? We challenged five T+L wordsmiths to tell a pithy travel tale in just 140 characters. Read the results?and submit your own.

Henry Alford (@henryalford): Visited Campari factory outside Milan to determine once and for all whether the aperitif?s main ingredient is cinnamon gift soap. #TLStory

Peter Jon Lindberg (@peterjlindberg):?Paddling Zambezi in 2-man canoe. Sunlight glints; hippos grunt. 18-ft croc slinks under boat. Paul (guide) not talking. Um?Paul? #TLStory

Adam Sachs (@sachsmo): Car broke mid-Utah. Instant regulars at only game in town?Don Ho?s Mexican American Chinese Caf?. Tumbleweeds & joy of slowed time. #TLStory

Dani Shapiro (pictured;?@danijshapiro): A tiny caf?, a glass of Barolo. The air redolent with clove cigarettes, a swirl of language. I close my eyes. Paris? No. Nolita. #TLStory

Gary Shteyngart (@shteyngart): Swiss lounge being fed chocolates and hugs, wish I had a guitar so I could play Kumbaya. #zurichterminalE #TLStory
