CampingBloggerForestcamping 21 10 Camping Blogs Youll Love

Planning your next great camping trip?  You’re not alone.  Camping and camping blogs seem to be more popular than ever with travelers taking greener, back-to-nature and budget holidays.

“Camping is enjoying a huge surge in popularity all over the world. In fact, I recently read that China is building 180 new campgrounds in Shandong Province,” says Roy Scribner, aka CampingBlogger.

“But it’s the same all over; Indonesia, the Philippines, Europe – families are escaping the pressures of work and school with camping vacations, instead of more expensive holidays.”

traveling greener loves the camping inspiration and information we always find at CampingBlogger.  Actually, Scribner shared his insightful 5 Green Camping Tips in a recent post here.

10 Backpacking Blogs You’ll Love

March 9th, 2010

Sti1 1024x768 10 Backpacking Blogs Youll Love

Backpacking is a life-changing way to travel.   From taking trains to volunteering, you can green your backpacking.

For years, traveling greener backpacked in the mountains.  We walked and took trains, stayed in cabins and camped out.  Living out of a backpack, our mountain boots and North Face jackets were our best friends.  Freedom, adventure and the open mountain roads were our everyday.

That’s why we love backpacking blogs and those bold bloggers who share their adventures backpacking around the world.  Whether you’re a new or experienced backpacker, these blogs can tell you about destinations, gear, safety, trends, lifestyle and more.

Here are 10 Backpacking Blogs You’ll Love:

  1. Go Backpacking
  2. Off Track Planet
  3. Art of Backpacking
  4. Two Backpackers
  5. Have Pack, Will Travel
  6. Briefcase to Backpack
  7. Backpacking Travel
  8. i Backpack Canada
  9. backpackingmatt
  10. Backpack with Brock

Is Asia calling?   If it is, there are Asia blogs about everything Asia for everyone from travelers, foodies and expats to educators and photographers.

traveling greener loves My Several Worlds and other blogs by Taiwan-based freelance writer/editor Carrie Kellenberger.  What we love about her blogs is they’re global cool and eclectic with posts on Taiwan, traveling in Asia, art, culture, education, photography and more.

“I love writing. I love traveling. I love photography. I love Asia. I don’t need any more than this to be inspired,” she says.

Kellenberger launched My Several Worlds to keep her family and friends updated on her travels and adventures in Asia.  Since then, she launched another two sites – Taiwan Photographers and Best Beaches in Asia and a third – Lay Your Head Here with her husband.

Says Kellenberger:  “My plan for 2010 is to bring it all back home. I’ll still be writing about travel, destinations, cultures, and lifestyles, but I also want to go old school and start writing more about our personal observations, experiences and travels in Asia.”

Need more inspiration?  Here are 10 Asia Blogs You’ll Love:

1. My Several Worlds

2. Asian Ramblings

3. EatingAsia

4. Unearthing Asia

5. Mike’s Blender

6. Jamie Sinz

7. Annamatic

8. Stickyrice

9. Kunzum

10. Chris in South Korea
