Links to Fellow Nomads from Around the World
Right before I started my first trip around the world in 2009, everyone gave me the feeling that I was completely crazy for even having the idea of going travelling for one entire year. But at soon as I had left everything behind and arrived at the first hostel in South America, I realized that I was completely normal. Everyone around me all of a sudden seemed to be a like-minded soul and a fellow nomad, travelling the world and giving me hope that a life of travel was in fact quite a normal thing.
But how normal a nomadic travel life actually was, became most evident once I started reading travel blogs. Since there seemed to be more websites about travelling than stars in the sky, here are only those travel blogs listed that I personally admire and the list will probably continue to grow as I continue to travel. So enjoy checking out the blogs of some fellow travellers and like-minded souls from around the world.
