We are sifting through and bringing you some of the best the web has to offer in the world of travel blogs. This will save you time that you can more appropriately use for playing Candy Crush Soda.
Anekdotique
Clemens Sehi is a freelance copywriter in Germany who has a taste for traveling. Anekdotique is the journal of his travel. He describes it as a blog about, "anekdotiques, that special little moments everyone experiences on their travels and that don't let you go until you strike out to find them over and over again."
For a German National, his English is fantastic but if you really want to have some fun read the posts in Dutch first and then switch over to the English side to see how much you truly understood. Clem offers up bilingual travel guides like, "15 reasons to fall in love with Turin," and, "Stockholm Museums: The 10 Best Museums from Vasa ship to Nobel Prize." Read about his travels to the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, Australia and more. Personally, I hope he comes to visit the U.S. more because it is fascinating to get a foreigner's view on our country. From the looks of it, he has only made one trip to the U.S. and during that time, only to New Jersey and New York. I can't wait till he gets to places like Texas or Seattle.
After reading his insights on the Jersey shore, it makes me feel like I understand him a bit more and in turn understand his point of view on other places around the world. I think that this is important when you are reading travel blogs. Find a place where the writer has been and you have as well. Compare your experience of that place to theirs and now you have a little better understanding of where that writer is coming from.
So jet to Germany by reading Clem and Anekdotique and see if you might find an anecdote yourself.
