Annie, your friend the (travel) blogger

Travel Blogging Coach, creator of Pinterest for Travel Bloggers, and the blogger behind Your Friend The Nomad.

I started my travel blog after quitting my SEO content marketing job with the intention of building a semi-passive business that would pay my bills AND my travel expenses. And it didn’t take long for that to happen!

But despite my background, I’m a big believer that travel blogging isn’t really about SEO—or affiliates, social media, views, etc. It’s about guiding real people in planning meaningful travels that actually benefit local communities.

I started this blog to empower more travel bloggers to find freedom and purpose in their work—and do good with their influence!
