You will find posts about different travel destination but also music festivals. You will also find a lot of travel information about Amsterdam – because we’re living close to this city. We lived in Goa as well so we have a very detailed guide about this lovely (and hippie) beach destination. Apart from this, we also love writing about the nuances of traveling, tips, inspiration, how it shapes up relationships (life partner or friend) and how it made us meet each other (Sandro and Sonal)!

Do you want to start a travel blog too? It is super simple. We highly recommend the below mentioned resources
Travel Blogging Resources
GoDaddy for buying a Domain Name (website name)
If you want to start a travel blog, then the first thing that you need to do is to get a domain name. GoDaddy is where I bought one and I recommend this website to you as well. But hey, only get a domain name from here, but no other service. For hosting, look at the next option.
Siteground for faster Web Hosting
My website is hosted with SiteGround and I love how awesome and instant their “chat support” is. My website was so slow with another host but has become very fast with Siteground.
GetResponse for sending emails to my subscribers
I have been using GetResponse for sending out my monthly email newsletter to my website subscribers and I love it. No other email marketing service has the “perfect timing” option, that delivers the email at the time when a person is most likely to open it. Because if this feature, my email open rate is pretty high.
