Remember when everyone had a 'blogroll' and that was how your discovered other cool sites? It's a shame that got lost somewhere along the way. I think it's still an awesome way to discover cool sites and meet new people. Here are some of the people that enrich my world.
### Travel Writing
I don't follow many travel blogs. Time was people wrote about how they looked at life. I liked that time. Now it's all about how your life looks, and I'll be honest, I don't give a shit what your life looks like. Luckily there are still some wonderful travel websites that don't suck. Here's my reading list:
* [Notes From the Road](http://www.notesfromtheroad.com/) -- If you only click one link in this list, make it this one.
* [Beau Miles](https://beaumiles.com) -- Beau Miles makes these gorgeous films about his adventures in [getting to work](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysgH_rkfGSE), [sleeping in trees](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysgH_rkfGSE), and [eating beans](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYsTlfhDSDY). I know that *sounds* boring, but that's only because you haven't seen them. Check out his [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm325cMiw9B15xl22_gr6Dw) for more.
* [Sailorama](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCirYAT7CafNatSyJH3-O4pQ) -- okay this one is videos, not text, which means I only "read" it when we have access to reasonable bandwidth, but it's always entertaining. I've also learned a lot about video storytelling from the <strike>Maiweh</strike> <strike>Rosa</strike> Inesperado crew. If you only click two links in the this list, make this the second.
* [Bumfuzzle](http://www.bumfuzzle.com/) -- Discovered this by chance when researching Travcos and it's become my favorite travel blog -- sailing, racing, driving, you name it, they've done it.
* [Vagabond Journey](http://www.vagabondjourney.com/) -- I first started [following Wade Shepard's site](http://www.vagablogging.net/the-future-of-vagabonding-and-long-term-travel.html) back when I was [editing Rolf Potts' Vagablogging.net](http://www.vagablogging.net/vagablogging-alumni.html). If my math is right, Wade has been traveling continuously for over 15 years now. There is not much about travel that he has not figured out.
* [Dinghy Dreams](http://dinghydreams.com) -- Another sailor. I follow a lot of sailors/boats. Love the writing on this site.
* [Inhab.it](http://inhab.it/) -- I can't remember how I found inhab.it (I think we have a mutual friend maybe?) but I'm glad I did. Click this one too.
* [PMags](https://pmags.com) -- I believe Paul Magnanti is a kind of thru-hiking folk hero, but I just like hearing about his weekend trips around the southwest.
* [Early Retirement Extreme](http://earlyretirementextreme.com/) -- Jacob Fisker stopped blogging a while ago, but everything he wrote remains good advice for anyone looking to extract themselves from the consumer mindset.
* [Charlene Winfred](http://charlenewinfred.com/) -- I found Charlene Winfred's blog while researching the Fuji X Pro 2 for a Wired review and was blown away by the amazing mix of beautiful landscapes and street images, a combo that you don't find much. Turns out she's a nomad too.
* [Expeditionary Art](http://expeditionaryart.com/) -- I love this site and am wildly jealous of the amazing artistic talent on display here.
* [Shifter, Dan Milner](http://shifter.media) -- I discovered Dan Milner from Charlene Winfred's site. There's a lot here to love, even if you aren't a photographer.
