A Different Approach to Travel Blogging
The Open Travel Blog
What is the Open Travel Blog?
The Open Travel Blog is a traveller-led travel blogging community. Travellers contribute to the Open Travel Blog, and they earn money for it.
Any traveller who agrees with the Open Travel Blog’s ethos of always providing useful information is free to join and blog about their travel experiences on the Open Travel Blog.
Everyone else gets good, up to date travel information from people who know what they’re talking about.
As well as publishing blogs and information written by travellers, we also publish the world’s fastest but most comprehensive and useful complete country guides.

Improving Online Travel Information
We live in the information age, but most of the time, the information might as well have been written by your cat.
The Open Travel Blog is about improving the quality of online travel information.
If you look closely at a lot of online travel information, you’ll realise that it’s either just nonsense or it doesn’t tell you what you want to know. Half the time, the people writing it haven’t been to the place they’re talking about. What’s the point in that, when you just want some simple practical information or an opinion that’s worth listening to.
There are good travel blogs out there, but a lot of it’s just nonsense. The idea of the Open Travel Blog is to take a completely new approach to things and to make a travel blog that’s actually really good.
Travellers write the blogs on the Open Travel Blog, and they know what they’re talking about.
