Instagram is my favorite way to share and discover new places around the world. I am always looking for new travel accounts to follow. I don’t just follow photographers but I like to follow people that tell a story and introduce me to new places around the world. This includes bloggers, writers, brands as well as excellent photographers.
Of course, I follow Instagram accounts like GoPro and National Geographic but I find travel bloggers and photographers to be my favorite accounts. Not only are some of them my friends but they are all over the world doing amazing things. They inspire me to take my next trip and how to make the most of it while I’m there.
These are my favorite Instagram travelers to follow. So get inspired by them and follow their adventures. And if you’re looking for a great way to tell a story through social media check out Instagram story maker.
