Few of us would turn down the opportunity for a vacation, domestic or abroad. What we tend to have trouble with is actually making travel a priority, setting our sights on a destination and making it happen. Enter the travel blogger, whose whole life seems to revolve around their next getaway. Even if we can’t imagine the same lifestyle for ourselves, they offer inspiration. If this person can manage to make travel top of their list, so can I.
Here are some travel blogger we really, really love, both for the variety of their adventures and their ability to inspire us to book a flight.
