Six Travel Blogs I’m Currently Following
Posted by Paul Freeman under Inspiration , Resources , TravelI can’t recommend reading Brave New Traveler enough, while many of the blogs I have in my reader I just read the articles as they come, I will specifically look for new items from here daily.
Sample Article: Travel Is About Who You Meet, Not Where You Go
I haven’t been reading BackPackers.com for that long but came across it following a recommendation on Ask Meta Filter, there are some interesting articles from time to time, and if you’re interested in festivals around the globe they do mention a healthy number of them.
Sample Article: Doer, Watcher, or Wanderer: What’s You Backpacking Style
One of the first travel blogs I started to read at the same time as Brave New Traveler, regular postings and some really good information keep me coming back time and again to read the articles in this blog.
Sample Article: A Practical Guide to Vagabonding and Long Term Travel (Part 1)
There is more of a commercial slant to some of this blogs posts, dealing with aspects of photography, bloging, podcasting and such, but that doesn’t mean it’s not got some interesting and useful entries for anyone interested in travelling.
Sample Article: Five Rules for Recognizing and Avoiding Travel Scams
Other Blogs
Gridskipper: The Worldwide Travel Blog
I actually came across this one while sorting out the links for this post, but it looks interesting so I’ll be following it from now on.
While not just travel related, this new blog focuses on people doing extraordinary things, and shows a lot of promise which I am following with interest.
