Inspiring Long-Term Travelers to Chase Off-Beat Beauties

Bram and Manon are the flip-flop wandering couple behind this blog, and judging by how far they’ve wandered from their home country, the Netherlands, it seems clear they have a serious case of the travel bug. These travel bloggers and content creators have been exploring the world together since 2016, with no plans to stop soon. Their blog is aimed at other slow, long-term travelers who, like them, want to find the ‘hidden treasures’ of each new place, and enjoy immersing themselves in new cultures, instead of flitting through without absorbing anything. Through their blog, they hope to inspire new explorers and show others how to make the most of their slow traveling experience. See more of their work here.

#214 – @psimonmyway

Not Traveling, Just Choosing to Be Somewhere Else All the Time

Trisha V’s unique outlook is refreshing. Through her blog, she intends to show the reality of travel life, and that, contrary to what we’re made to believe, the great adventures you may find in foreign lands are not a cure-all for your life. Her favorite way of traveling is to volunteer wherever she goes – not only does this get her free food and accommodation, but most importantly, she learns to eat, speak, and live like a local. She also believes strongly in the value of travel, preferring to take her time getting to know a new place, instead of simply snapping photos at their landmarks. With such an honest outlook, we think you should give her a follow. Learn more about her here.

American Artists on a Never-Ending Soul Journey

For travel storytelling at its finest, check out Jill Mann and Kyla Tretheway’s beautiful blog.

They knew each other through their former partners, but could never be considered friends. But after this shared new chapter, a friendship did unfold. On a whim, they left Vancouver to watch the sunrise in Utah.

A Travel Photographer Capturing the World's Colorful Corners and More

For some of the most charming street and architecture photography on Instagram, let us point out Mary Quincy. This full-time photographer, based in Paris, has a knack for capturing the colorful, vibrant corners of every city. While each picture is stunning on its own, when viewed in grid form, her collection is a rich, irresistible mosaic of colors from across the globe. Mary claims to be fascinated by the authenticity of every place she visits, and she tries to capture ‘instant moments’ when rawness shines through before pretenses can be formed. If you love architecture, cityscapes, or the occasional artsy shot, give her page a follow. Learn more about her here.

Bay Area Adventurers Working Hard to Play Hard

Many years ago in San Francisco, Eric and Allison felt their lives were growing stale. Allison worked for an online clothing company, and Eric was the co-founder of a tech startup. While this seemed fine at the surface, they eventually came to the realization that all they did was work, drink and watch Netflix. Deciding to make a change once and for all, they quit their jobs and embarked on a worldwide adventure. Today they are full-time travelers, exploring the world and creating digital content. They claim that for every day of adventuring, there are two days of working hard at a local coffee shop, wherever ‘local’ happens to be at the time. Learn more about them here.

A Travel Photographer From Everywhere

Olga spent her childhood in several different countries, and for this reason, she finds it difficult to answer the question, ‘Where are you from?’ She’s an avid traveler and photographer, who’s had a passion for capturing beauty through imagery ever since she got her first camera at eleven years old. Through her travel photography, she hopes to spread the message that the world is full of beauty and kind, warmhearted people. Her first-hand experiences in the world have shown her there is more kindness than anger, and that mass media portrayals can be very far from the truth. See Olga’s Instagram page here.

Long-Term Travelers Making Memories Across the Globe

Daisy and Nenad are American travel bloggers that have been exploring the world together since 2014. They describe themselves as a normal, millennial couple living their lives to the fullest and trying to experience as much of the world as they can while they’re young. They discovered that long-term travel was a shared dream of theirs, when they started dating in 2013. They were initially skeptical about whether they’d be able to pursue their dreams, knowing that a life of travel was not as easy to arrange as it seemed. But they made it work! They’ve been on their ‘Round the World’ trip since 2015, and have never looked back. And believe it or not, they own five passports between them! Keep up with their journey here.
