The Diary of a Nomad

The Diary of a Nomad is a travel photography blog with a special focus on unique, lesser-visited destinations. It was launched in 2020 by Jiayi Wang, whose photography style is a mixture of colorful and dreamy, usually characterized by symmetry and leading lines. 

The Diary of a Nomad showcases incredibly detailed and comprehensive travel guides for countries that aren’t on most tourists’ radars, such as Azerbaijan, Iran, and Pakistan. Jiayi’s passion is to help bridge cultural gaps and show the warmth and beauty of these destinations through inviting photography .

There’s a large variety of photography on The Diary of a Nomad, including landscapes, architecture, and street photography. With that said, Jiayi’s most treasured work are her photos of Uzbekistan’s jaw-dropping mosques and madrasahs. These images have been featured on various media outlets such as Lonely Planet, Condé Nast Traveller, and USA Today, and have made Jiayi even more passionate about what she does.

The Evolista

After a career in entertainment advertising for 15 years, Jen and Guy’s passion for adventurous vacations around the world turned into a full fledged adventure travel blog called The Evolista. It made perfect sense because these two have traveled to 40+ countries and all 50 states.

Their travel is all about bucket list experiences, whether it’s ballooning in Turkey, riding camels across the Sahara or walking the Great Wall in China. They love meeting interesting people and actively seeing as much of the planet as possible. You’ll find them catching sunrise in the Wadi Rum desert, or trying to talk to people who don’t speak their language, but not by the pool at an all inclusive beach hotel.

Their photography is about capturing the feeling of the experience so that readers can see themselves in various locations. Jen is usually the explorer and Guy is capturing the moment.

With no prior photography experience in a world full of professional photographers, Guy just keeps taking it to the next level and trying to up his photo game. That has involved a crazy drone crash and waking up before the crack of dawn more times that they care to admit, all in hopes of getting that perfect shot.

Waffles and Lamingtons

Theo and Lynsey met while both travelling solo through the backpacking paradise that is Central America , so Waffles and Lamingtons was born as a passion project. A way of sharing their enthusiasm for photography in some of t he most beautiful places in the world .

Originally from Australia and Belgium, the couple are constantly on the look out for their next adventure with a special appeal for those countries that provide an unfamiliar cultural experience.

While their amazing travel blog has a clear focus on photography, Lynsey and Theo also compose stories from their travels. Their writing provides both a factual guide to exploring the destination and a personal account of their experience in that country. Reading their blogs provides just the detail needed to prepare you for your next adventure.

Having recently spent a considerable amount of time exploring Morocco ’s labyrinth-like medinas and the dramatic landscapes of Iceland , the couple’s unique representation of the extremities that come within these countries beautifully represents their work.

Alongside detailed, thoughtful travel guides that focus on small businesses and culturally immersive experiences, Wander-Lush has become a platform for visual storytelling. Emily is a self-taught photographer whose passion for street photography , portraits, and capturing architecture has developed organically as her blog has grown. As a writer who’s accustomed to hiding behind her laptop, learning to step out into the world with her camera has been a life-changing process.

As a traveller, Emily loves learning about different cultures through traditions, festivals, foods, handicrafts and material cultures – and these are the topics you can often find documented on her beautiful travel blog. Her photography has also been published by Conde Nast Traveller, CNN Arabic, Passion Passport, Elle Vietnam, and others.

A World To Travel

After studying, volunteering and working their way around the world; the Galician couple Inma Gregorio and Jose Martinez launched the highly visual sustainable lifestyle and travel blog A World to Travel in 2012 to share their experiences around the world, passion for festivals and unique events, the great outdoors, and all things responsible tourism.

From the beginning, one of its main focuses was photography. Be it landscape, music festivals, architecture, and even portraiture for some special projects like his series ‘Humans in Indonesia’; their images – except on rare occasions in black and white – are colourful and bring to life a pleasant world, where the human figure usually only gives the scale and donates the prominence to what surrounds us, which usually deserves it more. You will like it if the idea of ‘tiny people in big places’ seduces you.

They have been featured in some of the world’s largest print and TV media including the BBC, National Geographic, and Lonely Planet. In addition, they collaborate with other great travel outlets on a regular basis. More recently A World to Travel has been awarded as the most responsible travel blog of the year in their home country, Spain.

Continent Hop

Continent Hop is a travel, culture and food blog that focuses heavily on photography. While you will find numerous beautiful landscape pictures that accompany detailed guides, you will also find equally stunning food photos!

A multi-nominated blogger and journalist, Lavina loves street photography, and so Continent Hop contains many candid moments from the street, sometimes portraits taken with permission. 

Lavina always loved photography; however, only when she established Continent Hop in 2015 did she realise she could showcase these on a website rather than put them up only on Facebook.

While you will find the occasional popular destinations, Lavina prefers capturing photos that go hand in hand with a story. Destinations that have something to share that not many people are aware of, interesting conversations from the road, and ingredients that talk about secrets passed on from generation to generation are some of the moments Lavina aims to capture with her casual yet breathtaking style.

The Coastal Campaign

The Coastal Campaign is a travel photography blog with a focus on aerial travel photography. Luke and Roxy’s passion for aerial photography began in 2016 while living in Western Australia . Being surrounded by beautiful beaches, they soon realised the coastline was even more stunning when viewed from above. They honed their skills while living there and their passion for aerial photography and travel naturally evolved into their travel photography blog.

While travelling, Luke and Roxy are always searching for the most beautiful, off the beaten path beaches they can find. Capturing photos of these places with no other tourists motivates them to get up at sunrise when they visit a new place to have it all to themselves. When you visit their blog expect to see a stunning range of remote beaches from Australia and Asia, with a real focus on Western Australia and the Philippines. 

While they also shoot from handheld cameras, they feel their best work is done from the air. The picture below was taken at Bon Bon Beach on Romblon Island. It took 4 days, an internal flight, 3 ferries and several local busses to reach this isolated paradise.

Finding Alexx

Alexx is a solo female traveller who explores the world with her trusty tripod in tow. Her travel photography is all about finding bright and colourful photo spots, capturing epic experiences, sharing the funkiest places to stay and discovering the best food to eat.

Travelling alone can make taking photos tough, but with a decent tripod, a reasonably cheap photography kit, a bit of research and some early morning wake ups, Alexx manages to snap some brilliant photos of famous landmarks, stunning scenery and hidden gems.

She talks a lot about the best entry-level photography gear , phones and accessories for people interested in taking their travel snaps to the next level, as well as her research and shooting process which lets her capture photos solo while avoiding both huge crowds and risky situations (like passing your phone to a stranger!). She’s also super passionate about ensuring destination photos are realistic and representative of a destination, to avoid the all-too-familiar feeling of disappointment when somewhere you visit looks nothing like the photos.

Delve Into Europe

David Angel has been a professional travel photographer for over 20 years. He has had many thousands of images published in media worldwide over this time, and undertaken many commissioned assignments in the UK and Europe.

He also worked as commissioning editor and art director for one of the UK’s main national tourism bodies for 14 years, during which time he continued to freelance. This experience informed and influenced his photography, as he worked with some of the best photographers in the UK, collaborating with and directing photographers with specialisms from lifestyle to press to landscape.

David is completely self-taught, and has considered himself a landscape and location photographer first and foremost. When photographing well-known locations, he always tries to produce something different, his mantra being to look for the photograph within the photograph. He has always loved to photograph architecture, and specialized in night photography from the outset of his career. He loves photographing Prague, where he currently lives, and other cities he enjoys photographing include Venice, London and Sydney.

The subject matter of his travel photography blog has meant branching out to include more diverse content, from cafes and street scenes to details of locations. He says he never switches off, always mentally composing images wherever he goes – which is especially true in Prague.

Check out his work at Delve Into Europe .

Divergent Travellers

If you’re landing on the homepage of travel photography blog Divergent Travelers, prepare to be transported to some of the most beautiful and interesting places on the planet. Multiple award-winning travel photographer Lina Stock, along with her husband David, illustrate stories and travel guides from more than 100 countries on all 7 continents with stunning photography.

From a very young age, Lina was drawn to photography and learned quickly to delineate between the poor-quality photos her tiny film camera produced and that of the SLR Pentax her mother carried with her. It didn’t take long until she was mastering the art of photographing subjects with that SLR in hand.

For many years she shot photos as an amateur, simply for the pleasure of creating pretty images, before ultimately turning professional and pursuing the career and lifestyle she has today in travel content creation.

When asked about her specialties, she doesn’t hesitate to state that while photographing unique wildlife and off-beat destinations around the globe is her passion, she cannot be pulled away from an epic landscape either. The beauty of photographing travel is the ever-changing amount of subjects and scenarios that are present, making it the perfect genre for someone that loves to be on the move.

Eat Live Travel Drink

Nicole Sunderland is a travel and food photographer from Washington, D.C. whose main focus is beautiful destinations, luxury hotels and a lot of landscapes and sunsets. She uses a drone and a Canon DSLR to make the majority of her photos which she posts on her travel photography website.

Her main focus is to shoot beautiful imagery with no people in them and do light editing so that the viewer can truly understand what to expect when they visit. Not having people in 95% of her images is what has helped her stand out in the travel photography industry. Most photographers take photos with them as the focal point of the image. From the beginning her focus was always to keep her photographs clean and with no people so the viewer could really picture themselves there. 

Another thing she focuses on in her travels is food. Not a lot of travel photographers do both, but there is no denying that food and travel go hand in hand. Often people want to know what they can eat at resorts/hotels or restaurant recommendations for cities they are visiting. Same process, she takes these photos with no people in them and close up or flatlays.

Trip & Trail

Chris is a travel photographer with an affinity for adventure, as well as the documentation of everyday life and local culture in foreign countries. His projects are usually a series of images interweaved and sequenced to narrate a story, with smaller separate stories frequently being unfolded inside each image.

Chris is also the founder of Trip & Trail, a photography travel blog where he regularly publishes his stories and photo essays.

Travel Better, Cheaper, Longer

My Current List of Favorite Travel Blogs

I’m not going to lie: I think I have a pretty good travel blog. (You probably do too if you’re here.) I work hard to provide excellent practical travel advice to help you travel better, but I’m not the only great travel blogger out there. In fact — and I know this might be shocking — there’s a lot about travel that I’m not an expert on. Family travel? No idea. Travel as a woman? Clueless. Information on hotels? Only a little. Photography? I can manage to turn my camera on if that counts. Food expert? Only at eating it.

I’ve realized that it’s been a while since I last talked about the best travel blogs out there — the ones I read — so I wanted to take a moment and highlight some of my favorite travel blogs that can also help you travel better, cheaper, and smarter. There are so many good blogs out there, I feel like I’m long overdue to point you to some of them:  

Legal Nomads

Uncornered Market

Alex in Wanderland

The Blonde Abroad

View from the Wing

Wandering Earl

Oneika the Traveller

Never Ending Footsteps

Additionally, she provides some wonderful practical tips on travel and detailed expense breakdowns on how much she spends in each place.  

Be My Travel Muse

Chubby Diaries

Travels of Adam

So there you have it! My current list of favorite travel blogs on the web (besides mine) that I read. This is an ever-changing list so I’ll be updating as time goes on! After all, new travel blogs start every day. Go read these ones, laugh, learn, and be inspired!

Are you looking to start a blog too? These posts can help you do that:

• How to Start a Travel Blog
• 19 Things I Learned From 10 Years of Blogging
• 9 Ways to Become a Successful Blogger

Book Your Trip: Logistical Tips and Tricks

Book Your Flight Find a cheap flight by using Skyscanner . It’s my favorite search engine because it searches websites and airlines around the globe so you always know no stone is being left unturned.

Book Your Accommodation You can book your hostel with Hostelworld . If you want to stay somewhere other than a hostel, use Booking.com as it consistently returns the cheapest rates for guesthouses and hotels.

Don’t Forget Travel Insurance Travel insurance will protect you against illness, injury, theft, and cancellations. It’s comprehensive protection in case anything goes wrong. I never go on a trip without it as I’ve had to use it many times in the past. My favorite companies that offer the best service and value are:

• SafetyWing (best for everyone)
• Insure My Trip (for those 70 and over)
• Medjet (for additional evacuation coverage)

Want to Travel for Free? Travel credit cards allow you to earn points that can be redeemed for free flights and accommodation — all without any extra spending. Check out my guide to picking the right card and my current favorites to get started and see the latest best deals.

Need Help Finding Activities for Your Trip? Get Your Guide is a huge online marketplace where you can find cool walking tours, fun excursions, skip-the-line tickets, private guides, and more.

Ready to Book Your Trip? Check out my resource page for the best companies to use when you travel. I list all the ones I use when I travel. They are the best in class and you can’t go wrong using them on your trip.

Beers and Beans

Landing somewhere between photojournalism and a standard travel blog, Beth and Randy know how to capture raw, authentic moments. Case in point: their piece on the brewmasters behind America’s first brewery at sea. Be it in the foothills of Patagonia or the streets of New York City, Beers and Beans sidesteps the traditional photo blog approach in favor of focusing on the human experience, and the things we can accomplish by coming together. Who wouldn’t want to volunteer at a winery in Tuscany? Even if you’re hungover, Beth and Randy still have your back.

Richard Bernabe

For photographers, traveling is both a literal and creative journey. New surroundings evoke new feelings, which inform the way you see and document the world around you. Richard Bernabe is a seasoned adventurer whose travel photoblog is the gold standard. From getting the most out of your shot while on the road to clever life hacks for falling asleep 30,000 feet in the air, there is no shortage of inspirational content on Bernabe’s blog.

Around the World in Eighty Years

Who says a travel blog can’t have an activist bent? As someone who cares deeply about the environment, Jim O’Donnell’s Around the World in Eighty Years is part photography blog site, part photo gallery, and part public forum for ruminating on conservation efforts throughout the United States and more. His photography is downright stunning, frequently used to illustrate a key point, like how deforestation in Panama affects not just its wildlife but also the locals. This photoblog is also great for tips on traveling the world mindfully, whether it’s ways to keep waste to a minimum or reduce your carbon footprint.

Portrait and Photojournalism Photography Blogs

Steve mccurry.

With over 30 years of experience, Steve McCurry is a master of portrait photography . He’s drawn to real, everyday people that he encounters while out and about in the far corners of the world. His portraits have been organized on his photography blog under specific themes, like the daily lives of people who reside in coastal regions.

Nowadays, however, McCurry’s anchored in India, where he is currently exploring the country’s rich, vibrant culture through his lens.

Fiona Kelly lifts the veil on wedding photography on her eponymous wedding photography blog.

Reportage by Getty Images

With a roster of world-renowned photographers and documentarians—like Peter Dench, Paula Bronstein, and Laurent Van der Stockt, as well as some emerging talent—Reportage features the real-life stories behind some truly stunning photos. Spend enough time on Reportage and you will agree: it’s one of the best photography blogs out there.

Fashion Photography Blogs

In a landscape as competitive as fashion photography , budding shooters need all the guidance they can get.

Whether you’re looking for industry-insider tips for getting ahead, useful organizations every pro should join, or even how to retouch skin naturally, this photo blog covers all the bases.

The Fashion Camera

The Fashion Camera is another incredibly useful resource for photographers navigating an often-tumultuous industry. Liselotte Fleur, who oversees the site and is its chief blogger, peppers in her personal stories about what it’s actually like to be a fashion photographer (including, for example, how you can land your first book cover.

Fashiontography

Fashiontography is the top photography blog for the most hardcore of hardcore fashion enthusiasts. Fashiontography curates photos from the world’s leading designers and brands, with a detailed, granular breakdown of what you’re looking at and why it’s important.

Food Photography Blogs

We eat together.

Just as Larry David is considered the comedian’s comedian, We Eat Together is the food photographer’s food photography blog. The Internet was missing a one-stop shop for learning the craft of food photography prior to We Eat Together, and its creator, Skyler Burt, has worked tirelessly to publish useful, relevant content for photographers and food bloggers. Tips include simple, clever tricks to get the most out of your food shot and cheap lighting options for food photographers just starting out.

Street Photography Blogs

Jason teale.

Based out of Korea, Jason Teale thrives out in the world, where he captures the beauty all around us. (His night shots are especially gorgeous.)

Olaf Photo Blog

Inspirational Photography Blogs

Chase jarvis.

Not only is Chase Jarvis a world-renowned photographer with an amazing reputation in the industry, but his photography blog also offers something very different than the average blog.

His blog has developed into something more than just photography as his articles feature many interviews of successful individuals from all industries and walks of life, intending to educate his following with more than just photography, but how to be better entrepreneurs, creators, thinkers, and most of all better human beings.

Photography News Blogs

This two-person juggernaut, known as PetaPixel, is one of the most popular photography news blogs, followed by more than a million on Twitter and half a million on Facebook. While PetaPixel syndicates content from other photography sites, it gathers some of the best news in the photo world on time, and it has become a one-stop shop for many photographers. Their popularity speaks in numbers.

PetaPixel also has a popular original podcast show, which we at Format have sponsored and supported in the past!

When it comes to covering the latest photography news and gear reviews, nothing comes close to DPReview. Ever since they’ve joined forces with Chris and Jordan, formerly of the Camera Store TV, and ramped up their video content, DPReview has been nothing but a joy to read and watch.

Want to Start Your Art Photography Blog?

Has browsing all these photography blogs inspired you to become a photoblogger? There’s a lot to admire from these photographers’ work and how they share their stories and knowledge.

The good news is, producing a photography blog is easy! And there’s so much you can blog about! No matter where you are in your photography career, starting a blog is a good idea.

The Benefits Of Starting Your Photography Blog

If your love of photography comes from your natural knack for storytelling, then a blog is a great way to nurture this side of your work.

Not only does it help you record your experience and progress as a photographer, but a blog allows you to share your inspiration for photography, your creative process, and the technical skills involved in the editing process that many other photographers may find inspirational too.

Regularly contributing content to your website in the form of blogs also builds your credibility as an experienced photographer, which many top-tier clients may be looking for before wanting to work with you.

On top of sharing your expertise and helping others learn from you, your blogging efforts improve your website’s visibility. High-quality blog posts help to increase your chances of visitors finding your site through search engines by ranking for relevant keywords in your industry.

Some tips you may want to consider when publishing your blog post include:

• Running your post through Grammarly to ensure it’s free from any spelling or grammatical errors
• Break up long walls of text into shorter paragraphs. Forget everything you’ve learned in high school about paragraphs needed to be five sentences long. When you’re writing for the web, you want your readers’ eyes to navigate the page easily, and long walls of text are uninviting.
• Stick to relevant topics in your industry. Think about why someone might come to your blog and what would keep them coming back for more content. Make your blog posts educational, inspirational, or entertaining.
• Share your blog post on social media. The best way to increase exposure to your blog and website is to promote it on other platforms. Leverage your followers on other social media platforms like LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest to generate more traffic to your blog.
• Come up with descriptive titles for your posts. Blog post headlines need a mixture of creativity and accuracy. Rather than having an abstract, creative title for a post, stick to more accurate headlines that let the reader know what they’re getting into. This not only helps with click-through rates but with keyword ranking for your search engine traffic too.

How To Get Started With A Photography Blog

Rather than hosting your blog on a platform that you don’t own, like Blogspot, Tumblr, or Medium, you should build your blog on your portfolio website. This gives you more control over how visitors experience your content, and you don’t have to worry about fussy algorithms that change faster than the seasons.

If you’re worried about setting up your website, you’re in the right place.

You don’t have to be a web developer to start a website blog that looks great and is completely functional.

Just look for a website builder that has a blog built right in. That way, you don’t need to bother with any annoying code or to set up a separate site for your blog.

All you need to do is pick your favorite template that matches your aesthetic and function, upload your photos, write your artist bio and contact information, and customize the template to match your visual branding.

And if you need some tips on bringing more visitors to your photography blog, check out our SEO guide and list of 50 free SEO tools , which will help you boost traffic and reach a wider audience.

Suppose you’re looking for a sign just to get started. This is it.

There are so many ways you can tell stories with your photography on your website—whether that’s through educational content, inspiring travel and lifestyle stories, or entertaining behind-the-scenes insights to your work, every blog is unique.

1. Nomadic Matt

By:  Matthew Kepnes

I have to be honest with you — I love everything about  Nomadic Matt .  

Everything from his website’s design to his personal writing voice makes for an engaging reading experience. Not to mention that the name “Nomadic Matt” really sticks with me. 

Matthew Kepnes, AKA Nomadic Matt, was once a cubicle worker who admittedly wasn’t always a big traveler. On his first trip back in 2004, he went to Costa Rica where his perspective in life transformed forever. 

A single trip — that’s how easy it is to fall in love with travel. 

Today, Matthew continues living the life he was born for. He primarily blogs about travel tips, encompassing topics like how to save for a trip and things to do in Singapore. 

Blog Topics 

• Travel Insurance
• Travel planning
• Saving money on travel
• Travel gear
• Destinations

Monetization Strategies

• Display advertisements
• Superstar Blogging online course
• Affiliate marketing ( Check: Best Travel Affiliate Programs )

2. Backpacking Matt

By:  Matt Kyhnn

I think there’s something about the name “Matt” that raises a person’s affinity for traveling. 

Backpacking Matt , owned and run by Matt Kyhnn, is a travel blog that has similar vibes with Nomadic Matt. It has a simplistic design, a memorable content tone, and striking travel photos that bring the blog’s stories to life. 

Matt Kyhnn also leverages videos — providing his audience a more immersive way to enjoy his content. 

Fresh out of college, Matt simply decided that he won’t settle for a 9-5 job. Instead, he spent months working and traveling across Ireland, Scotland, and other regions in mainland Europe. 

He then booked a one-way ticket to New Zealand where he now resides. In addition to his blog, Matt also runs his own travel planning and booking website — Planit NZ. 

Blog Topics

• Affiliate marketing
• Planit NZ travel planning and booking services
• Brand collaborations

3. Adventurous Kate

By:  Kate McCulley

Kate McCulley, AKA  Adventurous Kate , is a travel blogger with lots of adventures to tell.

She’s been to 83 countries, seven continents, and plenty of experiences to help women appreciate the traveling life. 

Kate’s blog was built during her time in Southeast Asia along with her freelance portfolio, which helped fund her travels. Her target audience is women who want to travel, but required guidance on how to do it safely and easily. 

The “Solo Female Travel” category on her blog consists of posts about travel safety, travel planning, destination guides, and more. She also compiled a list of travel resources that help turn her audience’s travel ideas into action plans. 

• Travel safety for women
• Sponsored posts

4. The Blonde Abroad

By:  Kiersten “Kiki” Rich

I covered Kiersten “Kiki” Rich of  The Blonde Abroad   in my list of the top lifestyle bloggers to follow in 2024. 

As her blog’s name suggests, she’s mainly a travel blogger who also discusses two other lifestyle-related topics — blogging and photography. 

Kiersten spent three, eye-opening months in multiple countries to re-envision the idea of “ success .” She succeeded in her goal and is now one of the most accomplished travel bloggers on the web. 

The Blonde Abroad covers a range of topics from travel photography to foreign cuisine. All of which draws wisdom from Kiersten’s personal travel experiences.

• Photography
• Travel destinations
• The Travel Shop
• Social media and influencer marketing consulting

5. California Through My Lens

By:  Josh McNair

Josh McNair, owner of  California Through My Lens , has a distinct writing style that vividly describes details of travel destinations. 

Unlike bloggers who discovered the love for travel in their adulthood, Josh has always been a passionate traveler at heart. He created California Through My Lens to document his adventures with the online audience. 

California Through My Lens is run by both Josh and his wife, Amy. The pair also has an active YouTube channel called Through My Lens where they share their experiences in video form. 

As you may have guessed, Josh’s content focuses on the beaches, caves, hiking trails, waterfalls, and various landmarks in California. Intricate details of each location, from hike distances to specific travel tips, are often included in his posts. 

• National parks in California
• Driving around California
• California destinations
• Selling eBooks
• Advertisements through YouTube 

6. Dan Flying Solo

By:  Daniel “Dan” Clarke

Dan Flying Solo   is by Daniel Clarke — a travel blogger, photographer, and creative director at his own Portugal-based media company. 

Dan’s blogging life was ignited by his passion for photography. He was originally a frustrated restaurant manager who wanted more out of life.

Like me, Dan is a self-taught blogger. He worked day in and day out by doing free online courses, YouTube tutorials, and heaps of informative guides. 

What makes Dan Flying Solo an extra noteworthy blog is its library of video content. Daniel also makes it clear that the site has no particular theme — not unlike everything else in life.  

“ There’s not one particular theme to this blog because I don’t think that’s how life really is. We change and what we enjoy changes.”

7. Travel with Lakshmi

By:  Lakshmi Sharath

Lakshmi Sharath worked on a desk job for multiple media organizations for 15 years. She then started her personal travel blog in 2005 — traveling to over 25 countries and across every corner of India. 

Travel with Lakshmi has only grown steadily ever since. It won multiple awards, including “India’s best travel blog of the year” award from Indiebloggie.  

As an Indian herself, Lakshmi made sure to highlight the country’s top travel destinations on the blog. She also documented her travels to foreign countries — from Abu Dhabi to the United Kingdom. 

As a way to support aspiring travelers around the world, Lakshmi also covers important tips on starting a travel blog. This includes essential tips on photography, travel planning, and travel writing.

• Social media marketing campaigns
• Content marketing and writing services
• Digital media consulting services

8. foXnoMad

By:  Anil Polat

foXnoMad   is a unique travel blog run by digital nomad Anil Polat.

Anil was exposed to travel at a young age because his parents were journalists. Other than routine trips between Turkey and the United States, they also visited multiple destinations around the world. 

Even in his professional life as a computer security consultant, travel was a big part of Anil’s life. He eventually decided to quit his job and fixate on one goal: to visit every country in the world.

What makes foXnoMad unique is that Anil utilizes his knowledge in tech to provide insightful tips on traveling smartly. He also develops apps that can help travelers in situations like determining water drinkability and calculating tips.

You can check out his podcast where he talks about current events, new product tech releases, and all things travel-related. 

Blog Topics                                           

• foXnoMad Shop
• Paid mobile apps

9. Fluent in 3 Months

By:  Brendan “Benny” Lewis

Fluent in 3 Months   by Brendan Lewis is created for travelers with a purpose. 

Apart from regular posts about travel planning and destinations, Brendan also writes a lot of guides on foreign languages. 

Remember, language is a crucial part of every culture. Brendan makes sure you learn dozens of useful words and phrases that will enrich your visit to any country. 

Some of the most prominent content formats in his blog are “ways to say” posts and phrase listicles. There are also fun, bite-sized stories like “How I Learned French on the Toilet in 6 Months.”

For more serious language learners, Fluent in 3 Months offers “The Challenge.” It’s a full-fledged online course that will enable you to hold a 15-minute conversation in a new language.

• How to speak foreign languages
• Language hacking 
• Traveling jobs

10. Cheapest Destinations Blog

By:  Tim Leffel

Cheapest Destinations Blog   is one of the oldest travel blogs on this list. 

It is created and run by Tim Leffel — an award-winning travel writer and author.  

Tim has made it his life’s goal to help people make the most out of travel while spending less. His blog contains posts that teach how to spend your travel money wisely and how to make every cent count. 

Other than Cheapest Destinations Blog, Tim also runs a handful of other blogs on different, travel-related topics. This includes Perceptive Travel, Travel Writing 2.0 Blog, and Cheap Living Abroad.  

• Travel budgeting
• Influencer marketing through 360 Degree Travel Network

11. Alex in Wanderland 

By:  Alexandra Baackes

Alexandra Baackes created  Alex in Wanderland   for two reasons. 

First, she’s been dealing with a case of wanderlust all her life. And second, she’s a fan of a beloved, fictional character — Alice in Wonderland. 

Alexandra is originally from Brooklyn, New York where she purchased her one-way ticket into the traveling life. She now blogs about the best travel destinations, outdoor activities, and her personal, travel-related gear.

One of the things I like about Alex in Wanderland is the presentation and categorization of content. 

On the “Categories” page, Alex makes sure articles are well-organized based on topics like travel inspiration, activities, and planning. This makes it easy for her audience to find the information they need at any given time. 

• Outdoor activities

12. Hey Nadine

13. I Am Aileen

Just like Kiersten Rich, Aileen Adalid is another travel blogger whom I also featured in my top lifestyle blogs listicle.

Aileen runs  I Am Aileen   — an award-winning blog that discusses just about everything there is to discuss in travel. She writes about destinations, the best travel activities, foreign cuisine, and more. 

What interested me the most about Aileen is her blogging background. At age 21, she quit her corporate job, which only paid $300 a month, to become a professional traveler. 

Since then, she’s been on a streak of smashing goals and breaking barriers. Thanks to her commitment to quality content, she’s recognized as one of the top bloggers in Asia.

14. Wandering Earl

By:  Derek Earl Baron

Here’s a fun trivia about  Wandering Earl . 

Unlike most bloggers who use their first names, the “Earl” in “Wandering Earl” is actually a middle name. Blog owner Derek Earl Baron only thought that “Wandering Derek” didn’t sound as catchy.

Derek is a one-of-a-kind, adventurous soul who discovered his purpose as a modern nomad relatively early into adulthood. After graduating in 1999, he planned a three-month vacation across Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. 

That three-month vacation continues to this very day. 

And that’s how Wandering Earl was created — documenting Derek’s adventures in over 100 countries. He also shares valuable pieces of wisdom on travel planning, food, budgeting, gear, and so on. 

Wandering Earl has that “old-school” look and feel to it. On the plus side, the site’s design only highlights

15. Be My Travel Muse

By:  Kristin Addis

Be My Travel Muse  is a solo female travel blog created by Kristin Addis. 

She studied in Taiwan and kept an investment banking job for four years. The only problem was, her daily routine rendered her creative, dreamer side claustrophobic. 

Her first step was a one-way ticket to Bangkok — envisioning a life of writing and travel. That’s exactly what she accomplished with her blog, which now caters to millions of readers all over the world. 

Kristin believes that solo traveling is the best way for women to feel empowered and more confident. She prioritizes solo female travel tips on her blog, including guides on safety, packing, and maintaining relationships. 

Be My Travel Muse also has heaps of content on popular travel destinations and self-care for women.

16. Followtheboat

By:  Liz Cleere and Jamie Furlong

Followtheboat   is a unique travel blog that focuses on a specific mode of transport: sailing. 

It is created with love by a travel writer Liz Cleere and photographer Jamie Furlong. There’s also Millie the rescue cat, which functions as a source of inspiration and encouragement for the blog’s human founders. 

Despite the focus on sailboats, Followtheboat’s content isn’t just made for sailors. The posts are tailor-made for travelers who also happen to be interested in the art and joys of sailing. 

Don’t be surprised at the humor and dynamic range of topics on the blog. You’ll find posts like “tools you need on a sailboat” and “is this the weirdest loo in the world?”

Followtheboat also has a library of podcasts, which record Liz and Jamie’s experiences on their travels. 

• Boat maintenance
• Patreon donations

17. Matthew Woodward

By:  Matthew Woodward

If Followtheboat is about boats, you can probably guess what  Matthew Woodward   is a blog about trains. 

Not to be mistaken for  Matthew Woodward  the internet marketer, Matthew Woodward the rail adventurer loved trains as a child. He owned model railway sets, traveled alone by train, and watched shows about trains on TV. 

In his time as a geography student, he explored Europe with his trusty Interrail pass. He set his passion aside to focus on his career, which he eventually gave up to become a travel writer. 

Today, he blogs about railway systems over different continents. He’s also an accomplished author of three books: “The Railway to Heaven,” “A Bridge Even Further,” and “Trans-Siberian Adventures.”

18. The Opposite Travellers

By:  Ryan and Rachel Riel

The Opposite Travellers   were created by married couple Ryan and Rachel Riel. 

While both loved to travel, Ryan and Rachel had contrasting preferences when it comes to traveling. 

Rachel prefers to travel in style and luxury — through the accommodations and services offered by establishments and travel agencies. Ryan, on the other hand, leans toward daring adventures like biking and trekking — on $5 per night accommodations. 

The couple, however, utilized their differences as a selling point in The Opposite Travellers. 

As such, the website’s “Travel” section has two main categories: “Luxury Travel” and “Adventure Travel.” In other words, the blog has a diverse content library for travelers of all tastes and budgets.

The Opposite Travellers also boasts high-quality visuals taken and produced by Ryan Riel. All of the site’s videos are published on Ryan Riel Media — Ryan’s official YouTube channel.

20. Bucket List Journey

By:  Annette White

Travel is all about adventures, and so is life. 

That’s the essence of the  Bucket List Journey   by Annette White. 

The blog’s tagline is “tools and inspiration to live your list.” It refers to a person’s “bucket list,” which is basically a list of goals and experiences they want in life. 

Annette didn’t always have such a positive outlook in life. She used to be diagnosed with anxiety, which caused her to miss out on life-enriching experiences and opportunities. 

Eventually, she decided that she’ll no longer become a prisoner of fear and uncertainty. She had courage and took charge of her life’s direction — something every aspiring blogger needs to do at one point. 

Bucket List Journey talks about bucket list-worthy destinations, motivation, money, and travel tips. Annette also imparts knowledge on people who also struggle with facing fear and making braver life decisions.

21. Migrationology

By:  Mark Wiens

When I first visited  Migrationology , I wasn’t sure whether to classify it as a food or travel blog. 

Then I checked out Mark Wiens’s “About” page. There, I learned that he viewed food as a way to connect with people in various cultures. 

And to be exposed to these cultures, Mark dedicates his time, money, and efforts to travel. 

Mark makes sure the blog only focuses on content based on his personal travels. It’s made for people who want to experience the flavors of the world — in person or through Mark’s posts. 

Apart from general food travel blog posts and city guides, Migrationology also offers readers a “Food Tour” service. It is the result of a year of research done by Mark himself — in partnership with  Bangkok Vanguards .

22. The Cranky Flier

By:  Brett Snyder

We already mentioned a blog about boats and another about trains. It’s time to talk about a blog on airplanes and air travel.

Cranky Flier   is a unique blog created by Brett Snyder — President and “Chief Airline Dork” of Cranky Flier LLC. 

Brett has been fascinated with airlines all his life. When he was young, he collected airline timetables and even spent a birthday with his grandmother watching planes land. 

As an adult, he spent several years in the airline industry fulfilling multiple roles. He became a sales intern at USAir, senior analyst at America West, marketing planning product at United, and so on.

Today, Brett publishes his opinions about the airline industry on Cranky Flier. He also updates several series, like “Worst Airline Ever,” “Airlines We Lost,” and “Across the Aisle Interviews.” 

I’ll let you determine what these series are all about based on what they’re called.

23. Never Ending Footsteps

By:  Lauren Juliff

Lauren Juliff is one of those bloggers who already knew what they wanted to be from an early age. 

She dreamt of traveling to new places, meeting new people, and exploring new cultures.  Never Ending Footsteps   is proof that she accomplished all three. 

The blog consists of posts about Lauren’s fulfilling travels to different countries. But unlike a lot of famous travel bloggers, she also talks about the downsides of being a digital nomad.

Never Ending Footsteps has a “The Incidents” blog section where Lauren discusses the not-so-sexy aspects of traveling. She has been scammed, attacked by monkeys, locked out of her room, lost her passport, and more. 

Despite these incidents, Lauren’s love for travel only grew. Such experiences increased her wisdom and travel acumen — resulting in some of the most insightful travel articles ever published.

Lauren also helps her audience get into the world of travel blogging. Check out “How to Start a Travel Blog” for information on web hosting, working with WordPress, and so on.

24. A Dangerous Business Travel Blog

By:  Amanda Williams

A Dangerous Business Travel Blog   is a straightforward blog made to help people travel. 

It is created by Amanda Williams, who is a former journalist with degrees in journalism, hospitality, and tourism management.

25. Against the Compass

By:  Joan Torres

How do you make a travel blog stand out?

Joan Torres has a surefire answer: covering the most unusual and “off the beaten track” destinations.

Against The Compass   is a unique blog that talks about the travel routes and destinations you probably haven’t heard of. It covers destinations that people don’t normally include in their bucket list, like Pakistan, Tunisia, Syria, and other high-risk countries. 

Of course, Joan makes sure to highlight the importance of safety when traveling in relatively low-popularity destinations. He has comprehensive guides for solo female travel, travel insurance, and general travel safety.

26. Everything Everywhere 

By:  Gary Arndt

In travel blogging, a picture is undeniably worth a thousand words. There’s simply no excuse for any travel blogger to forego the inclusion of visual content in their posts.

Gary Arndt’s absolutely nailed it with his photography work for  Everything Everywhere .

Gary actually won multiple, major travel photography awards — more than any travel photographer. His photography is so good that I suggest you check the “Travel Photos” page on Everything Everywhere.

Go ahead, take a break and thank me later. 

Other than taking breathtaking photos, Gary also publishes detailed blog posts about the places he’s been. He’s been on the go for roughly 9 years non-stop, which means readers will never run out of material.

27. The Longest Way Home

By:  David Ways

The Longest Way Home   started as the personal travel journal of David Ways — a solo traveler in search of home. 

The blog originally started as David’s private, digital diary. As he journeyed across Europe and gained experience, it turned into a full-on blog with travel guides to specific locations. 

David finally found home in Nepal before traveling to other parts of Southeast Asia. 

He’s not the most nitpicky blogger in terms of grammar and spelling, but he’s definitely a brilliant storyteller. He’s also skilled in capturing and immortalizing moments into photos, which you can view on his blog’s gallery. 

The Longest Way Home has a library of content about various destinations, trekking, and travel planning. It also features in-depth travel guides to Nepal, Thailand, and overland travel — plus a mini-guide to Portugal.

Since the blog is run by a team of experts, expect the content quality to be top-notch across the board. The team also organizes boutique tours, which readers can participate in for a memorable travel experience.

30. HoneyTrek

Believe it or not,  HoneyTrek   is a travel blog about a honeymoon.

Yes — it’s probably the longest honeymoon ever.

Founders Mike and Anne Howard are a power couple with skills that can make any blog great. Anne is a former magazine editor whereas Mike’s a veteran digital media strategist and photographer. 

Together, they’ve honeymooned to over seven continents and 60 countries while creating the most romantic travel blog in the process.

• Fashion and style while traveling
• Traveling as a minority
• Personal opinions
• Social media marketing

32. The Adventurists

By:  Tom Morgan

The Adventurists   is hands down one of the most well-designed travel blogs in this post. 

The blog proves that integrating tons of video content into one page doesn’t have to affect its loading speed. In fact, the site loads surprisingly fast despite having several video panels on the homepage.

I’m not going to delve too deeply into this technical feat. What I’m going to focus on, however, is the brilliant team behind The Adventurists. 

The site is founded by “Chief Idiot” — Tom Morgan. Apparently, most of the crazy ideas featured on the blog were his. 

Every page on the site reflects Morgan and his team’s wackiness and passion for great adventures. They do, host, and document daring outdoor activities on air, land, and sea — plus, a whole lot of charity.

Their audience can also participate in these activities, which can be held in various parts of the globe. The “Monkey Run,” for example, is an event where participants race through dirt trails on tiny bikes.

The bottom line is, it’s hard to come up with unique ideas that set you apart in the blogging landscape. The Adventurists, on the other hand, managed to do so multiple times. 

• “The Adventures” events
• The “Shop of Stuff”

33. Time Travel Turtle

By:  Michael Turtle

Time Travel Turtle   is created by Australian Journalist Michael Turtle. 

Michael was born to be a storyteller and he knew it from an early age. 

In school, he ran the student newsletter and contributed a weekly column. He also filled the role of deputy editor of a university newspaper. 

Time Travel Turtle’s contains mainly posts on the locations that Michael has visited over the years. 

Like most renowned travel bloggers, Michael captures amazing photos that travel enthusiasts can fall in love with. He puts some of these photos up for sale to companies who’d like to feature those locations or properties. 

Michael continues to explore the world as a digital nomad. He also shares practical travel tips so readers can experience these adventures themselves.

34. Hand Luggage Only

By:  Yaya and Lloyd

Hand Luggage Only   is a hugely successful travel blog by couple Yaya and Lloyd. 

The site doles out travel advice, inspiration, photography tips, food reviews, and posts about must-see destinations. It also has a library of high-quality videos where Yaya and Lloyd describe their experiences in detail.  

Yaya and Lloyd started the blog in 2014 with a plan to share their travel stories with the world. Within a few hours, they published their first posts using photos they already took and edited. 

The moral of the story is, consider starting a blog if you already have a library of unused travel photos. 

35. Travel4Wildlife

By:  Christina Garcia and Hal Brindley 

It should only take anyone a second to figure out what  Travel4Wildlife   is all about. 

The blog is created by couple Christina Garcia and Hal Brindley out of their passion for wildlife. 

Hal is an experienced wildlife photographer for organizations like the Nature Conservancy Magazine, SEE Turtles, and RARE Conservation. Christina, on the other hand, is an experienced zoologist who worked on studies on wolves, cheetahs, and leopards. 

Travel4Wildlife’s goal is to increase awareness and increase the appreciation for wildlife. More importantly, it was Christina and Hal’s life goal to promote wildlife conservation through responsible tourism. 

Behind the scenes, the couple teams up to create compelling articles that focus on wildlife in specific destinations. The blog covers a range of species on different continents — from owls in South Africa to polar bears in Canada. 

• Wildlife tour reviews
• Responsible travel

36. The Insatiable Traveler

By:  Susan Portnoy

Susan Portnoy, also called  The Insatiable Traveler   on her blog, is a seasoned travel writer and photographer. 

Susan’s last full-time job was VP of corporate communications at Condé Nast. When that door closed, she took on a freelancing career as she learned the art of photography. 

Fast forward a few years, and she has enough accolades to make photography degree holders envious. 

Her photographic works were featured by organizations like National Geographic and companies like Bing. She also won awards like the SATW Lowell Thomas Award and the 2018 Gold in the Muster Photo Competition. 

The main focal points of The Insatiable Traveler include destinations, cruises, photography, and travel gear. Susan also covers the safaris in various regions, like Tanzania, Namibia, and Kenya. 

37. View from the Wing

By:  Gary Leff 

Just like Brett Snyder, Gary Leff of  View From The Wing   is an expert in all things air travel. 

Gary was named one of the “World’s Top Travel Experts” by Condé Nast Traveler since 2010. He also co-founded InsideFlyer.com — a community made by and for frequent flyers.

View From The Wing is a goldmine of timeless tips on airline miles, credit cards, hotels, and business travel. No matter your sub-niche in travel, I recommend checking it out for ways to maximize your frequent flyer miles.

38. Uncornered Market

By:  Daniel Noll and Audrey Scott

Dan Noll and Audrey Scott are a pair of adventurers, storytellers, and tourism advisors who advocate for responsible traveling. 

They created  Uncornered Market   — a responsible tourism blog — after leaving their secure and stable lifestyle in Prague. Prior to that, they lived in San Francisco and took a leap of faith for the sake of avoiding regrets.  

It’s clear that both Dan and Audrey believed that fulfillment can’t be found within the confines of your comfort zone. They explored, made connections, and shared their experiences through their travel blog. 

Some of the topics you’ll find in Uncornered Market are about destinations, sustainable tourism, food, and trekking. Dan and Audrey also write about personal growth and experiential travel. 

Uncornered Market is also a tourism development and marketing consultancy company. They help travel companies, destinations, and tourism organizations build their brands and deliver their message to a wider audience.

39. Jessie on a Journey

By:  Jessica “Jessie” Festa

Like plenty of bloggers, Jessica Festa needed a taste of life before discovering her true calling. 

In her youth, Jessie traveled to mostly cruises in the Caribbean and road trips in North America. She also experienced being a sightseeing guide in New York. 

Jessie on a Journey   is the result of her pursuing her dreams of getting paid to do something she loves. She now blogs about being a solo female traveler, blogging it, and profiting off of it. 

I’m sure a lot of big-name bloggers are all too familiar with how Jessie made the blogging vision a reality.

For a long time, she felt that the workaday lifestyle isn’t for her. It made her feel like she’s living everyone else’s life — not the kind of life she wanted to keep. 

Despite the disapproval of loved ones, Jessie decided to quit her secure job in favor of being a travel blogger. 

She was just as unprepared as most people before starting their own blog. The key difference is, she went out there and took her first step.

40. Legal Nomads

By:  Jodi Ettenberg

Back when Jodi Ettenberg was in law school, she never would’ve guessed she’d run a successful travel and food business. 

That happens to a lot of people, especially those who never thought of giving priority to their passions. 

It’s just a hunch, but I think the name  Legal Nomads   had something to do with Jodi’s background in law. 

Legal Nomads highlights destinations and local cultures just as insightfully as other travel blogs. What makes it different is that Jodi focuses on local cuisines to experience and tell the stories of each destination. 

A huge part of Jodi’s blog is about wellness and gluten-free eating. She then utilized her knowledge and experience to create detailed restaurant cards, which travelers can use when visiting certain countries. 

• Gluten-free restaurant cards
• The Legal Nomads Shop

41. Indiana Jo

By:  Jo Fitzsimons

Like Jodi Ettenberg, Jo Fitzsimons also used to practice law before becoming a successful travel and lifestyle writer. 

Indiana Jo   started way back in 2010 where Jo can comfortably type away her thoughts and musings. Fed up with her full-time job, she went out to see the world as a digital nomad.

It wasn’t always smooth sailing for Indiana Jo, however. According to her, she thought about quitting the blog several times before finally realizing that it’s a lifetime thing. 

Jo writes about her travel experiences, destinations, wine, and food. She also shares travel planning tips along with a long list of content about topics that personally interest her. 

• Travel health and safety

42. TravelFreak

By:  Jeremy Scott Foster

TravelFreak   is the brainchild of Jeremy Scott Foster who left America in the middle of a recession and to Australia. 

For a while, he racked up some savings as a traveling bartender. It took some time before he finally made the switch to be a digital nomad and online entrepreneur. 

Jeremy created the blog to help people create opportunities to achieve the fulfilling life they deserve. 

He writes about travel advice, destinations, gear, and ways to get your finances in order as you travel. This includes guides on how to land and keep a job abroad along with resources on reliable booking websites. 

I personally like the way Jeremy designed TravelFreak to provide the best possible user experience. Unlike a traditional layout, the site features a search bar so readers can jump right into the content they need.

TravelFreak has been featured in Forbes, National Geographic, The New York Times, and a few other big-name publications.   

43. The Everywhereist

By:  Geraldine DeRuiter

Before anything else, yes — that’s Rand Fishkin in the photo above. 

And yes, the next travel blogger on this list is Rand’s longtime sweetheart and wife. 

Geraldine DeRuiter was a former copywriter and went with Rand in his travels, which are often business-related. She then turned to the habit of documenting their travel experiences, which she described as “love letters” to her husband. 

Today, Geraldine works full-time on  The Everywhereist   — named by Time magazine as one of the best blogs in 2011. 

The Everywhereist contains posts about food and Geraldine’s travel experiences along with a comprehensive Philadelphia travel guide. The guide contains information on where to go, eat, shop, and stay. 

Geraldine also wrote a book called “All Over The Place.” It chronicles how she embraced her love for blogging after being laid off, which aspiring bloggers can draw inspiration from. 

• All Over The Place book sales

44. Keep Calm and Travel

By:  Clelia Mattana

Keep Calm and Travel   is a travel blog created by serial traveler Clelia Mattana. 

Ever since she was 19, Clelia is a certified sea lover and globetrotter. But like many travel bloggers, she was given a choice between a secure job and the traveling lifestyle. 

Clelia’s finalized her choice when she bought a one-way ticket to Asia. She then created Keep Calm and Travel to send a simple message:

“No matter what your age is, or your budget, or status, you can travel and live your life on your own terms.”

The blog’s topics include destinations across continents, photography, and travel gear. She also has a dedicated page for Sardinia, which is one of her absolute favorite travel destinations.

45. Practical Wanderlust

By:  Lia and Jeremy Garcia

Lia and Jeremy Garcia, who aptly labeled themselves a “travel couple” on Instagram, are the minds behind  Practical Wanderlust .  

Jeremy is a film degree holder whose passions include writing and directing. He also became a high school teacher who taught filmmaking and digital media art.

Lia, on the other hand, has a fashion design and apparel merchandising degree. She took on roles in corporate merchandising before becoming a business systems analyst. 

Why did I tell you all this? Simple: I want you to know what the pair had to give up pursuing their dreams of traveling. 

Practical Wanderlust’s goal is to help other people enjoy travel in the most realistic and sensible approach possible. The blog is filled with detailed content on planning memorable trips on a budget, where to go, and staying safe.   

Lia and Jeremy also host their own podcast, which is available on Google Podcasts, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.

46. Expert Vagabond

By:  Matthew “Matt” Karsten

Matthew Karsten, AKA the  Expert Vagabond , has been a travel blogger, photographer, and digital nomad for nine years.

He talks about budget travel tips, destinations, travel photography, and strategies to make the digital nomadic life work. 

Matt is a business degree holder who spent time freelancing as a nightlife and event photographer. While he admits it was fun, he knew that he wants and deserves something more. 

After a year of downsizing his life, eating homemade food, selling eBooks, and saving every penny, he was ready. He set out to obtain a different kind of wealth — that which is made with adventures and experiences.

47. The Voyageur

By:  Pauline Chardin

Pauline Chardin is a France-based fashion designer, photographer, and art director. 

She always had a soft spot for travel — driven by her appreciation for picturesque architecture, landscapes, and good food. She started  The Voyageur   to help people view the world through her voice and eyes. 

The Voyageur is a simple, yet aesthetic website achieved through Pauline’s incredible photography skills. Apart from itineraries and posts about hotels, food, art, and architecture, the site also has a sizeable photo gallery.

Images are accompanied by a brief article that describes the destination’s history and Pauline’s thoughts and emotions during her visit. I’m not sure what it is, but there’s something about this content format that’s truly engaging and relaxing. 

• Art and architecture

48. Amateur Traveler

By:  Chris Christensen

Don’t be fooled by the name —  Amateur Traveler   is by no means run by an amateur.

Chris Christensen is a skilled photographer, travel writer, and podcast host. The site also utilizes a long list of monetization strategies that I believe every blogger should learn. 

True, he wasn’t the most experienced traveler when he started the blog. Before he created Amateur Traveler, he was a full-time EVP of engineering and operations for a company based in Silicon Valley. 

In his defense, he grew up in a family that traveled a lot to national parks in a trailer. He also learned a lot of foreign languages, which he believes is a window into understanding and embracing different cultures. 

Amateur Traveler discusses destinations, travel budgeting, planning, gear, and booking. The site also features a weekly podcast on the top destinations around the world.

49. Girl Eat World

By:  Melissa Hie

Melissa Hie is the “Girl” in  Girl Eat World  — a name that encapsulates what the whole blog is all about. 

You see, Melissa’s three passions are food, travel, and storytelling. She started the blog in 2015 as a digital diary for herself and friends who need travel tips. 

Prior to her blog’s success, she amassed quite a following on Instagram. This springboarded her blogging career, which she put in the back burner after focusing on her full-time career.

Girl Eat World is essentially a compendium of Melissa’s travel stories and travel planning guides. She also has an iconic style of capturing Instagram posts, which must be seen to be appreciated. 

50. The Adventure Junkies

By:  Antonio Cala and Amanda Zeisset

The Adventure Junkies   is definitely not your average travel blog. 

It’s not just about the travel stories of founders Antonio Cala and Amanda Zeisset. Upon visiting the blog for the first time, you’ll realize that it’s all about the community the blog has built. 

New visitors are encouraged to join “ Summit ” — a free community for people who seek adventures through travel and outdoor activities. There, members can connect, plan events, share posts, ask questions, form groups, and discuss anything related to travel. 

The Adventure Junkies also compile guides and resources about outdoor activities like diving, kayaking, mountain biking, and snowboarding. There’s also a section for visitors who’d like to learn about outdoor and underwater photography.

Antonio and Amanda started The Adventure Junkies as a personal blog about their three years of cycling. Over time, their readers began asking questions on how they can plan their own adventures. 

The couple then realized that they need to create something more than a personal blog. As such, they transformed The Adventure Junkies as a one-stop shop for adventurists.

51. A Broken Backpack Travel Blog

By:  Melissa Giroux

Melissa Giroux used to be a social worker who only traveled once a year. 

Melissa created  A Broken Backpack   a year after her journey in the Canadian Rockies — hitch-hiking from point A to B. She continued working on her blog as a creative outlet while working on a farm in Australia. 

It didn’t take long before A Broken Backpack’s popularity gained momentum and gave Melissa a new frontier.

By:  Jonathan Look Jr. and Sarah Wilson

The last blog on this list that your best life can start at any time you choose. 

Let me tell you the story behind  Life Part 2   and the people behind it.

Jonathan Look Jr. and Sarah Wilson are both happy retirees with a simple mantra: “don’t waste your retirement.”

Jonathan and Sarah met in Chiang Mai, Thailand where they both agreed to see the world as a couple. 

Life Part 2 is a mix of all things travel. At times, there’ll be a post about remote destinations and backpacking, and at other times, the theme is luxury travel. 

You will, however, notice that the content topics on the blog often revolve around retirement, minimalism, and travel. 

Planning to go on your own travel adventures? Perhaps you’re thinking of starting your very own travel blog?

It doesn’t matter if you’ve got a case of wanderlust or the desire to be a travel blogger yourself.

Mastering Travel Photography: A Guide for American Travelers

Posted: April 25, 2024 | Last updated: April 25, 2024

Travel photography is an art form that combines exploration, storytelling, and technical skills to freeze moments that express the essence of a place and its people. This guide explores the core of travel photography, offering insights and tips to help you capture photos that are not only visually striking but also rich in narrative. Whether navigating bustling city streets or serene landscapes, these guidelines will equip you with the knowledge to bring back memorable photographs from your journeys.

Travel Photography

Travel photography’s history is rich and diverse, evolving from the exclusive domain of professional explorers and photographers to a widespread passion fueled by technological advances and the democratization of travel. In its early days, travel photography was a means of documenting uncharted territories, exotic cultures, and remote landscapes, often for scientific or exploratory purposes. The advent of portable cameras in the late 19th and early 20th centuries allowed more individuals to document their travels, transforming travel photography into personal expression and storytelling.

One of the most influential figures in the history of photography, Ansel Adams, played a pivotal role in elevating landscape photography—a key component of travel photography—to an art form. Adams’ work in the American West, particularly his iconic images of Yosemite National Park, demonstrated the power of photography to capture the sublime beauty of nature. His exacting approach to composition, lighting, and technique has inspired generations of photographers to view travel photography as a way to record what they see and as a creative means to convey a place’s emotional and aesthetic spirit.

The Master of Travel Photography, Lesley Fisher

Upon graduating from Stirling University in Scotland with an honors degree in Psychology, Lesley Fisher embarked on a journey that blended her passion for the arts with an adventurous spirit. Her career in travel photography, which she commenced full-time almost a decade ago, has been a conduit for her quest for adventure and her artistic expression. Her portfolio, enriched by published works, is increasingly sought after by picture editors and art directors.

For the past 23 years, Fisher has called Thailand her home, where she initially worked in the travel and hospitality industry. Her fluency in Thai highlights her immersive approach to life and her surroundings. This approach is further evidenced by her certification as a PADI rescue diver and her proficiency in Mysore Ashtanga Yoga, showcasing her commitment to experiencing life fully and engaging deeply with her environment.

Fisher’s photographic journey has transitioned from her early days in luxury hotel and villa hospitality to her current status as a renowned international travel and architectural photographer and interior styling expert. Her work commands attention across the globe, with commissions leading her from various corners and islands in Asia to Europe and New York, among other locations. Continuously traveling and photographing in some of the world’s most remote locales, Fisher refines her skills while imparting her distinctive blend of charm and humor to all she encounters.

Environmental Responsibility

Environmental responsibility in travel photography emphasizes the importance of sustainable and respectful practices towards natural landscapes, wildlife, and local communities. Fisher urges photographers to minimize their ecological footprint by adhering to paths, maintaining distance from wildlife, and engaging with local cultures sensitively. Adopting eco-friendly travel options, durable equipment, and support for conservation efforts further underscores the commitment to preserving documented environments. Sharing images with consideration for their potential impact, alongside continuous education on environmental issues, reinforces the role of photographers in advocating for the protection of natural and cultural heritage.

Collaboration with local authorities, NGOs, and conservation groups enhances understanding of specific environmental challenges, leading to more informed photography practices. By embodying these principles, travel photographers capture the world’s beauty and contribute to ensuring its preservation for future generations. The collective effort towards environmental stewardship and cultural respect is crucial in maintaining the integrity of the diverse landscapes and communities that she seeks to document.

Understanding Light and Time of Day

The quality of light significantly impacts the mood and aesthetic of your photographs. Early morning and late afternoon, known as the golden hours, provide soft, warm light that enhances textures and colors. Conversely, just before sunrise or after sunset, the blue hour offers cool, ethereal light ideal for capturing cityscapes with glowing lights against a twilight sky. Midday light tends to be harsh and flat, often considered unfavorable for photography, but it can be used creatively to capture strong shadows and high-contrast scenes.

Composing with Purpose

Composition is the backbone of a compelling photograph. The rule of thirds, leading lines, framing, and symmetry are just a few principles that can guide you in creating balanced and engaging images. However, the essence of travel photography lies in telling a story — your composition should be aesthetically pleasing and convey a narrative or emotion that resonates with the viewer.

Capturing the Essence of the Locale

Travel photography is about capturing the essence of a place. This includes the people, the culture, the food, and the everyday moments that give a destination its character. Engaging with locals and immersing yourself in the culture can provide insights and access to moments tourists often overlook. Respect and sensitivity towards the people and places you photograph are paramount.

Embracing the Unplanned and Spontaneous

Some of the most impactful travel photographs come from unplanned moments and spontaneous encounters. While it’s essential to research and plan your photography around certain landmarks or events, leaving room for spontaneity can lead to unique and personal images that stand out. This approach requires a degree of flexibility, openness, and an always-ready mentality with your camera gear.

The Importance of Patience in Photography

Patience is a virtue, especially in travel photography. Waiting for the perfect light, for a crowd to clear, or for a moment to unfold naturally can make the difference between a good photo and a great one. This often means visiting a site multiple times or waiting in one spot for conditions to align perfectly. The ability to wait is a skill that can transform your photography, allowing you to capture images with intention and impact.

Mastering the Art of Street Photography

Street photography is a compelling aspect of travel photography that captures the essence of everyday life. It requires a keen eye for detail, timing, and anticipating moments. Successful street photography tells a story about the place and its people, often revealing emotions, interactions, and cultural nuances. It’s about finding beauty and interest in the mundane and presenting it in a way that resonates with viewers.

Navigating Cultural Sensitivities

Respecting cultural norms and sensitivities is paramount in travel photography. This means understanding and adhering to local customs, asking for permission before photographing people and being mindful of what is considered sacred or private. Sensitivity to your subjects ensures ethical photography practices, fosters mutual respect and can lead to more meaningful interactions and images.

Draw Inspirations but Don’t Copy

In travel photography, drawing inspiration from the work of others is a valuable part of the creative process, yet it’s crucial to distinguish between being inspired and directly copying someone else’s work. Emulating the style, composition, or subjects of established photographers can serve as a learning tool, but authentic expression and innovation lie in using these influences to develop one’s unique perspective and voice. This approach respects the originality of others and pushes the boundaries of creativity.

Try Different Techniques

Exploring various techniques is essential for growth and innovation in travel photography. Experimentation with different photographic methods—such as long exposures for dynamic landscapes, macro photography for detailed close-ups, or drone photography for aerial perspectives—can significantly enhance the diversity and appeal of a photographer’s portfolio. This approach encourages photographers to step out of their comfort zones, adapt to the unique challenges of each technique, and, ultimately, discover new ways to capture and convey the wonder of their travels. By continuously experimenting, photographers can refine their skills, develop a more versatile style, and produce work that stands out in the competitive field of travel photography.

Keep Safe and Know Your Locations

Safety and location knowledge are paramount in travel photography, necessitating thorough research and preparation before venturing into new areas. Understanding a destination’s geographical, cultural, and political landscape can significantly mitigate risks, ensuring photographers make informed decisions about where and when to shoot. This includes being aware of local customs and laws, identifying potential hazards, and taking appropriate precautions to protect oneself and one’s equipment. Additionally, staying informed about the weather and environmental conditions can prevent unforeseen complications. Prioritizing safety and location awareness safeguards the photographer and respects the integrity of the communities and environments being photographed, fostering a responsible and sustainable approach to travel photography.

Enjoy Yourself

Enjoyment is a fundamental aspect of travel photography, where the pursuit of compelling images should also embrace the experience of exploration and discovery. Engaging fully with the environment, immersing oneself in the moment, and appreciating the beauty and diversity of our world can enrich the photographic process, leading to more authentic and inspired work. This approach encourages photographers to view their journey not as an opportunity to connect with new cultures, landscapes, and stories, enhancing personal fulfillment and the overall quality of their portfolio. Ultimately, finding joy in travel photography benefits the photographer’s well-being and infuses their work with a sense of passion and vitality.

Share Your Images

Sharing your images is vital to travel photography, fostering connections and enriching the photographic journey. Lesley Fisher exemplifies this ethos by always carrying an instant Polaroid camera during her travels, allowing her to share tangible images with her subjects on the spot. This practice offers a token of gratitude and respect to those who become part of her photographic narrative and bridges cultural and linguistic barriers, creating immediate, shared moments of joy and understanding. Beyond personal interactions, sharing images through exhibitions, social media, and publications can inspire others, extend the reach of one’s work, and invite dialogue and feedback, further enhancing the impact and relevance of travel photography in a global context.

Research Your Destination: Understand the cultural, historical, and environmental aspects to find unique photographic opportunities.

Pack Light and Right: Choose versatile equipment that suits your style and the conditions of your destination.

Embrace the Golden Hour: Utilize the soft light of early morning and late afternoon for the most flattering illumination.

Practice Composition: Employ rules like the rule of thirds and leading lines to create visually compelling images.

Capture Candid Moments: Look for spontaneous, unposed moments that convey the essence of the place and its people.

Understand Local Customs: Respect and adhere to local traditions and norms, especially when photographing people and sacred sites.

Experiment with Perspectives: Try different angles and viewpoints to add depth and interest to your photos.

Use Manual Settings: Familiarize yourself with your camera’s manual settings to have more control over your shots.

Keep Your Gear Safe: Invest in a sturdy bag and use protective gear to secure your equipment in various environments.

Be Patient: Wait for the right moment when the light, subject, and composition align perfectly.

Edit Thoughtfully: Enhance your photos post-shoot with editing software, but avoid over-processing.

Share Your Work: Use social media, blogs, or exhibitions to share your images and experiences.

Stay Flexible: Be open to changing your plans based on weather, lighting, or unexpected discoveries.

Keep Learning: Continuously seek inspiration from other photographers and new experiences to improve your skills.

Enjoy the Process: Remember to experience the moment and enjoy your surroundings, not just through your lens.

The Bottom Line

Travel photography is about engaging deeply with the world, telling stories through your lens, and respecting the diversity of cultures and people you encounter. By embracing spontaneity, practicing patience, mastering photography, and navigating cultural sensitivities, you enrich your portfolio and your personal experience of the world. As you set out on your next adventure, remember that the most memorable photos reflect a genuine connection with the moment and the essence of the place. Keep exploring, keep learning, and let your photography be a bridge between you and the vast, beautiful world we share.

Photoshop your vacation: Turn lackluster photos into picture-perfect memories with Generative Fill

Your recent vacation was one of the best experiences of your entire life. Now you’re ready to revisit those vibes by flipping through your photos.

Uh oh! It turns out that some of your pictures turned out less than perfect — maybe there’s a seagull photobomb in a family portrait, or a stray cloud made its way across an otherwise blue, sunny sky.

Luckily, there’s a way to fix that: You can use Adobe Photoshop and the Generative Fill/Expand function to remove unwanted objects or people, enhance your backgrounds, and make the photo evidence of your trip match the idealized version you remember.

Hilarious examples of Generative Fill/Expand saving awkward photos

We’ve all been there: you’re in the middle of the perfect moment and someone snaps a photo, only for a surprise to pop up and risk ruining the preserved memory.

Not anymore! Avoid photo fails with the power of Generative Fill/Expand, one of the best ways to remove distracting or embarrassing elements from vacation pics. Even if there’s nothing wrong with the photo, you can correct minor imperfections and enhance backgrounds for all kinds of situations, such as:

Is your ex making that great photo unusable? You got them out of your life, we can get them out of your photos.

Bump, set, missed spike? We’ll edit the volleyball back into frame at the perfect height to make you look like a pro.

Dreary day making your beach photos look dull? Photoshop to the rescue. We'll inject some brilliant blue and azure sky magic with billowing clouds.

Remove unwanted elements in a few clicks

Generative Fill is a powerful tool that lets you remove unwanted people and objects from your vacation photos. Say goodbye to photobombers, power lines, and other distracting elements to create natural-looking replacements for the area in question.

How does it work? It may feel like magic, but it’s the power of technology:

• Use your favorite selection tool to choose the part of the image you want to adjust.
• Select Generative Fill from the Contextual Task Bar or find it in the application bar under Edit > Generative Fill. Love keyboard shortcuts? Hit Ctrl/CMD + click on an active selection.
• Leave the text-entry prompt blank if you want to base the fill on the surroundings in your image.

Remember, you can improve the results by avoiding a tight selection in your image. Some overlap can enable seamless blending, too!

Generate stunning backgrounds

If you’d prefer to imagine your recent vacation taking place in a more exotic locale, Generative Fill/Expand can help make that dream happen, too. You can also add elements to the image, such as people or animals. Finally, you can use Generative Fill/Expand to fix cropping issues and expand the photo’s background further. Just take the following steps:

• Select the background behind your main subject (Select > Subject, Select > Inverse)
• Choose Generative Fill from the Contextual Task Bar, application bar, or CTRL / Right + Click the active selection)
• Add the text prompt for your new or enhanced background. If you leave the text bar blank, Photoshop will use the existing surroundings to provide context. Prefer something out of this world? Try out prompts like “on the surface of Mars” or “in front of the Eiffel tower.”
• Generate variations of your prompt. New Generative Layers are always created in the Layers panel, so you can bring up the Properties panel to show your prompt, mask, and variations — all without impacting the original image.

Fix common photo imperfections

For pictures where everything is great except one minor detail, Generative Fill/Expand can fix those minor imperfections to create the ideal photographic reproduction of your moment in time. Use Generative Fill/Expand to refinish and retouch images by removing dust spots and scratches. You can even straighten the horizon or touch up darker areas with prompts like “brighten the background” or “add more sunlight” to shine some much-needed light on your photo’s subjects.

Make lackluster travel photos picture-perfect

Your vacation was a dream come true. Your photos should be just as breathtaking. Use the Generative Fill/Expand function in Adobe Photoshop to edit your travel photos like a pro. With this powerful tool, you can transform lackluster images into perfectly shareable memories.
