21 Travel Podcasts and Travel TV Shows: Loads of Links Week

by Elizabeth on February 19, 2009

This week we’re linking to lots of blogs as part of our “Loads of Links” week to encourage our readers check out a variety of travel blogs. If you have a favorite (or your own) travel blog that you want everyone to know about send it our way and we’ll see where it fits.

I’ve read over 150 travel blogs this week in an effort to catch up with what’s going on in the wide world of travel blogging. (No I haven’t linked to all of them yet, but wait until tomorrow.) Of the travel sites I’ve checked out, the biggest surprise has been in the world of podcasts and .tv sites. Honestly, I had listened to or watched very few travel podcasts and videos up until this week. And I had no idea what a wide range there were out there.

So, if you’re looking for a new type of media to watch while taking a break at your office desk or checking your email at a coffee shop in Amsterdam or listen to on your ipod while boarding a plane to Perth or enduring a chicken bus ride in Guatemala, I encourage you to visit the sites below:

Hi Elizabeth,

I like travelling too and being a greenry lover, I am very conscious about products that I choose. I recently brought a electric bike from R Martin Bikes, and love the way it runs. Since my workplace is slightly far from my home I used to travel by a car, but now the enviornmentalist in me takes pride in using a zero pollution vehicle.

Nice to see other people sharing views to promote this cause. I’ll be back to read more.

HAppy blogging
Hope
