Travel videos are exhilarating; wide angle shots and knowing that the camera is on top of a human's head is enough to your own blood rushing beneath your pale skin. We all wish to travel the world, yet the biggest road block that young travelers-to-be face is money. Where can we go when every Millennial I know is $50,000 in debt?
And with that predicament noted, out come the travel bloggers. The best travel bloggers for young adults with big dreams made names for themselves through Instagram, Youtube, and blogs. After immersing myself in the travel blogger universe as a guilty pleasure past time, this list of real names and '@' handles offer the best advice for young people looking to travel.
1. Samuel & Audrey
Samuel & Audrey Jeffrey are the epitome of relationship goals. They started out as separate travel bloggers, and they each even maintain their own websites even though they mostly travel together. These two are my favorites for a lot of reasons: their adventure-filled videos, their blog layouts, and their killer advice for even the most remote locations. In her blog posts, Audrey even provides ideal itineraries and options that make it easy to customize your trip as efficiently as possible. Check out Audrey's site here, and Samuel's site here.
2. Tuula Vintage
I've been following Jessica Stein for a long time now, and she continues to amaze me with her delicate and sophisticated Instagram posts that paint her adventures with colorful markets and crystal clear beaches. Her fashion advice is one next to her cool demeanor and travel tips for the bad and boujee.
3. Twenty-Something Travel
This blog is fantastic for - you guessed it - twenty-somethings! A variety of young travelers constantly post on this collaborative blog. There's so many different kinds of advice, like traveling with a full-time job or budgeting as many excursions you can fit into the duration of your trip. This blog is truly a one stop shop.
4. The Budgeteers
These guys are awesome. Paddy and Thijs are the guys who run this travel show with a twist. They limit themselves to a budget of $1000 when they travel and do whatever they can to stretch their budget without cutting the fun. They showcase that you don't need a ton of money to travel the world.
5. Adventurous Kate
Kate has made herself known for her solo travel adventures. Her viral fame is inspiring for young women who want to travel, and she continues to push boundaries with her thrill-seeking escapades. She was also named one of Forbes' Top 10 Travel Influencers of 2017! It's recommended to swing by her site whenever you're about to hop on a plane.
