get inspired by: social media travellers

Few things excite me more than exploring new places and experiencing new adventures. Which is why the travel bug often catches me off-guard! Thankfully, by the time you read this, I will returning from New York City. It was a fairly last-minute trip and a pretty short getaway, but a getaway nonetheless. (Expect a full update on that vacation in the next little while.) In the meantime, I wanted to bring you a travel inspired post. Whether you are looking for inspiration or a few planning tips, social media travellers can offer plenty of insight.

Seeing the world is a truly incredible experience. One that many of us dream about and save our pennies to do. Sadly? It is rarely realistic to drop everything and jet off somewhere exotic. For most of us, travel plans require planning, scheduling, and careful consideration. Which is why so much research goes into each and every getaway. What are the best places to see? Are there any unique experiences to add to my itinerary? How can I get a discount on a great hotel? 

The best way to do your research – and get inspired at the same time - is to read blogs and follow avid jet-setters on Instagram. This is an incredible way to experience world travel through someone else’s eyes. So, what are you waiting for? It is time to get inspired by some seriously amazing social media travellers.
