Nomadic Matt’s Travel Site, http://www.nomadicmatt.com, started off as the personal journal of one backpacker as he traveled the world sharing his pictures, video, and experience. However, as the site gained fame and readership, now with over 2,000 unique hits per day, the website has morphed into something more. Now, this multi author online travel website deals with every facet of travel. There are still photos and pictures but also tips and secrets to help travelers get on the road, stay on the road, and travel cheaper on the road.
Nomadic Matt’s Travel Site is updated every other day with information covering every facet of travel. There is practical advice, general travel tips, destination information, funny lists, photos, and current event information. Recent articles have focused on the political trouble in Thailand, information about Singapore, advice on how to travel with dogs, and a list of things to do in Iceland. We cover the gambit on this site.
Moreover, we include interviews with the leading authors and experts in the travel industry. Past interviews have been with guidebook writers Leif Petterson and Lara Dunston, movie director Brook Braga Silva, and author Chuck Thompson. We also spoke with Thomas Kohnstamm about his controversial book “Do Travel Writers Go to Hell?” Each month we have a different author and upcoming interviews include Rolf Potts, William Friar, and Joe Cummings.
More than just daily articles, the site strives offer practical advice for travelers about how best to navigate the unknown road so they can learn from previous experience to avoid mistakes that might cause them frustration on the road. To that end, there is a tips section that includes information on picking a tour group, getting a backpack, taking a roadtrip in America, teaching English overseas, picking a good travel credit card and much, much more.
There is also a F.A.Q. section that answers common questions travelers have about life on the road. As the website aims to be a resource of travel information, there is also a comprehensive links section linking to the best travel companies on the web as well as amazing travel blogs from other travelers who also share their witty stories and information.
