Top 3 Travel Blog Quick Picks for April 2016
There are so many great travel blogs out there, that we thought we’d do the hard work for you and seek out the very best. Every month we will share our top three travel blogger recommendations, based upon the quality and content of their posts, in addition to our usual in depth blogger profiles. This month, we’re concentrating on female travel bloggers, profiling three women who document their travels around the world.
Journalist on the Run
Janet launched her blog with the intention of visiting 50 countries by the time she reached 30. Having surpassed that goal, she explored 52 countries on 5 continents, documenting her adventures as she travels. Alongside showcasing her own travelling adventures, Janet also delves into offering travel advice to other would-be digital nomads. Previous posts include tips on how to quit your job and travel the world, and how to increase your Instagram following.
Having previously travelled extensively through Europe, Africa, Australia and North America, Janet is currently finding her way through Asia. Follow her adventures to discover the best (and worst) hotels to spend the night, destination highlights and essential travel tips.
The Traveling Ginger
Author of The Traveling Ginger, Nikki, has visited six continents so far on her travels around the globe. After growing up in South Africa with a father who frequently travelled, Nikki decided that the nomad life was for her, and frequently leaves her American base to travel to the further corners of the world.
Nikki documents her travels on The Traveling Ginger, suggesting things to do, places to visit and local specialities to eat in each of the destinations that she visits. Having travelled to Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas, Nikki’s blog covers a well-rounded array of locations. Alongside her usual travel blogging, she also covers two specific series of posts: an attempt to cook and eat a meal from every country in the world, and a challenge to visit every American state before she turns 30.
Illumelation
Based in Manila, Melissa loves to explore new cultures, meet new people and see new things as often as possible. Her blog concentrate equal importance on both the writing and the photography, demonstrating her talent at each discipline. Rather than publishing travel tips and advice, her blog takes the form of a journal, describing the places that she visits in such depth that readers can easily imagine being there themselves.
Posts flit back and forth from tropical Filipino beaches to glitzy American cities, ancient European monuments and African safaris, beautiful photographs accompanying her well-considered words.
