It’s true, it’s all a balance. Personally that’s why I enjoy writing about my own travels (like you do as well) and not top ten lists about places I’ve never been… but I also try to write the same kind of writing that I enjoy reading.

In reply to Fidel @IHarTravel. Hmmm, if I have kids someday I might delete some of my posts so they don't have anything to hold against me :) Just kidding. But I do agree that sometimes I push myself a little further than I otherwise would have with the excuse, "It's for the blog!"

Yeah, making my own website this year as opposed to being on wordpress.org was one of the best things I could have done.
I think having a forum to share your photos and stories really helps you when it comes to traveling. You look for more I believe and you tend to hold on to a conversation a little longer, try another bite of something that doesn’t look or smell too good, take a walk down a path that isn’t as paved, etc.
It’s nice to think that as I long as I keep paying for my domain, years from now when I have kids and they are teenagers, they might look at what I wrote and fly, err, teleport to that destination.

I couldn’t agree more with what you’ve said. Travel blogging has definitely enriched my travels, however I do think there are some travel bloggers who blog too much and miss out on the wonders of traveling since all they are doing is sitting at their computer.
