[…] would love to hear about your travels too. Go to “Travellers’ Tales” , fill in the quick questionnaire and email it to me with your blog […]
Thank you for inspiring some wanderlust within me while we are unable to travel (for now). It's wonderful to reminisce about all the lovely places we'll go when we can.
Thanks Iga. I'd love to read your responses too 🙂
Some amazing stories! This will keep me busy for a while.
Will get you my questionaire with answers also, if that's ok, because I would love to be in it.
That will be great. I'm looking forward to reading it!
Thanks for sharing such pleasant thoughts. I have read it fully.
Hi! Do you need to get approval or be selected to fill out the questionnaire and be chosen to be featured? I am a family travel blogger and would love to answer these exciting questions. Would that be ok?
Thanks so much! What a fun idea!
Jen
Hi Jen, Nope, go ahead and answer 🙂
It's a shame you don't have a donate button! I'd without a doubt donate to this brilliant blog!
I guess for now i'll settle for bookmarking and adding your RSS feed to my Google
account. I look forward to brand new updates and will share this blog with my
Facebook group. Talk soon!
Interesting, I'd like to share my travel experiences too 🙂
That would be lovely, Nafisa . I would love to read about your travel experiences 🙂
I would love to answer these questions as I lived my South African dream this year itself.
Hi Manjulika, That would be great! Please complete the questionnaire and email it to me.
Pinned this to get the word out! Really enjoyed reading about the journeys of others particularly Spicegoddess' comment that she loves to travel with her mum- that is so lovely!
Thanks for reading Danni. I hope to have you as a guest soon.
Hi,
This is a really great initiative,
How does one get in touch with you, RE: Interview
Thank you Di. You can email me on saraessop@gmail.com .
What an awesome post! I'd love to do this. I have downloaded this and will send it back to you as soon as the mad rush of WTM is done 🙂 Thanks for taking the time to put this together Sara.
Awesome. I'm looking forward to reading your responses, Beatrice 🙂
Hey so our last holiday was in Mauritius. And it was awesomeness!!!Needed your advice on a possible holiday destination for us in October this year. With the economy in such a crappy state it would have to be South Africa or Africa. What's a decent holiday resort but history filled destination that we could go to with my daughter who should be 2yrs by then? Looking at lots of activities and sightseeing that's not far away from where we stay. 7 nights. Gave you some homework there,help me out yo!
Thanks for the homework, Fazila 😉 . My recommendations:
South Africa: Have you seen this article I wrote? http://inafricaandbeyond.com/10-family-friendly-hotels-to-visit-in-south-africa-this-holidays .
Also look at St Lucia.
Africa: Zanzibar, Morocco, Reunion.
Overseas - there are some overseas countries/cities where you can still have a good holiday with the rand - Thailand, Istanbul, Malaysia, India (although I'm not sure if that's advisable with a 2 year old)
Let me know what you decide.
