So you don’t feel like being productive today? Thoughts of travel turning spreadsheets into mud in your hands? Yeah, I know that feel. Oh...no, I have no intentions of helping you (and me) snap out of it and get back to work...instead I want to feed this craving, but I need your help!
Compiled here (and to be included as a living document on each edition of “best of overland”...coming soon for June I promise...) will be all the best people to follow, the best media to watch and all the best blogs to follow. Its going to be a huge undertaking so I need your help, post in the comments all the places you go to for your fix, and I will compile them all up.
These include:
Social - Instagram, FB, google +, etc.
Video - YouTube, Vimeo, specific sites (all4adventure for example)
Blogs - kinja blogs, personal blogs, favorite forums, etc.
Please include a hot link and a description, and state if the service requires a fee and how much. I think this is going to be a great resource once complied, and I can’t wait to get it all together!
