New Post: Musicians Below New York One of the many things I love about New York City is the range of amazing musicians and singers who eke out a living performing across the city’s subway network. Actually, ‘eke out’ may be the…

New Blog Post: Zuccotti Park, New York City On both my trips to New York City in 2008 and 2010, I have at various times found myself wandering through Zuccotti Park. Strictly speaking, it is more of a plaza than a traditional park, and in fact it…

New Travel Resource Site with Blog List Section

Howdy all!



I recently launched http://www.travelresourcelist.com as a sort of bookmark page for the top travel websites we all use and recommend. The goal was pretty simple. Make something that's up to date, and filters out general stuff which doesn't offer a good value/isn't reliable/regularly used while providing a solid and comprehensive list to turn you onto a bunch of travel resources you probably didn't know existed (I sure didn't).… Continue

Socialize Your Travel Photography



Even the most experienced travel photographers make a simple mistake. It has nothing to do with the quality of the photos they take, is independent of the quality of their camera, and has little to do with composition. I'm not talking about how to take stunning shots of the local people, natural beauty or architectural flare you encounter. I'm talking about the photos that will never make it into the photo gallery you share with friends and… Continue

I'd had the pleasure of doing Wild in… Continue

It's never too soon to start networking and building your relationships with other travel bloggers, editors, etc., Shanna. Attending conferences is one way to do that. That said, some conferences are better than others. I'll have to let…

How soon is too soon to start attending conferences and events?

Thumbnail
I have a 2 month old travel blog that I have been working very hard to establish.  What I am trying to figure out is how soon is too soon to start attending travel events and conferences?Will it be a boost to my blog at this point, or will it be a relative waste of time?  Is it too soon to start networking and making contacts?  What do you think?Have any of you attended any conferences or events, and what was your experience?Thanks so much for your input,Shanna…See More
