Did you know the tinberry travels is now a top travel blog? We’re very excited to be included in Market Inspector’s Top 50 Travel blogs.
This June the lovely people at Market Inspector came up with their Top 50 Travel Blogs of 2016 and I’m delighted to be part of the list. No numbered rankings (Phew) but I’m very excited to be listed alongside some amazing fellow travel bloggers with a lot more writing and travel experience including Crazy Sexy Fun Traveler, Emily Luxton and Taylor Hearts Travel just to name a few.
As part of the group I was invited to answer a few quick questions on the tinberry travels for the piece. Here’s what I shared:
How did you start the tinberry travels ?
In 2010 I decided to take a year off to go travelling and as I couldn’t stay in touch with everyone, I started my blog simply as a way of keeping friends and family up to date with all the exciting things I was doing. Being in Australia with such a big time difference, the blog made it easy to share my experiences and with all those back at home. After that first adventure, I had caught the travel (and the blogging) bug so I continued to share my stories of travel abroad alongside local trips and days out from my home in Glasgow. I’ve continued to build an audience and become part of the online travel community, hopefully inspiring others to travel as they have inspired me.
What does travelling mean to you?
For me travel is not just about seeing a new part of the world but experiencing new cultures and often expanding my horizons through learning. Travel can mean taking yourself to the other side of the globe and immersing yourself in something completely different or simply finding great places to visit close to home – it’s all about perspective. I love to explore and seek out new places and try things I’ve never done before. Travel is my passion and through it I’ll never stop learning, or gaining new insights into our world. Standing still, means you’ve stopped growing as a person so I intend to keep travelling for as long as I can.
Since this love recognition the tinberry travels has also received a blogger to blogger award –The Versatile Blogger Award and been nominated for a UK Blog Award. Thanks to everyone who considers the tinberry travels a top travel blog – we appreciate each and every one of you!
