How the best travel vloggers were chosen:

Like all lists, people will wonder why they’re not on it. I’m positive I missed some good ones, but this is very loose criteria I’d be using if I were hired to cast, produce or pitch a TV show. Creators did not need to meet all criteria, but most. – Programming: Weekly dedication, quality, storytelling & individual style execution – Audience: Niche, loyalty, & YouTube friendly – Blog worthy and/or binge worthy – Does it bring a new spin to the term “travel video” or “travel show” – Channel Personality/Talent: brand recognition, hosting & entertainment value

Tips For Travellers YouTube Channel

I started my Tips for Travellers YouTube channel in 2006 to make it fun and easy to discover, plan and enjoy unforgettable cruise vacations every time. In the past, I made many wrong choices when it came to cruising, but now, with 96 (and counting) sailings behind me, I’m more savvy when it comes to crafting the perfect cruise vacation – and I’m passing on my first-hand tips and advice to you, so you can plan your own perfect cruise.

I learnt that enjoyable and memorable cruise vacations don’t happen by chance. They are crafted through being well-informed, and then making intelligent choices at every single stage.

On the channel, you have access to over 800  FREE  videos packed full of the things you need to know about cruising. With a new one added every week.

You can also join my weekly hour-long Live Cruise Q&A , and can find quick cruise news and tips in my frequent 60-second cruise “shorts” too.

My popular members only subscription option allows you to access members-only content including behind-the-scenes insights, my ‘Essential Cruise Tips’ e-book, priority access to future group cruises, and a Private Facebook Group for discussions and asking questions.

All my content aims to have a balanced and direct point of view – and that is made possible, I believe, because unless stated explicitly, all my cruises are funded by me.

Tips For Travellers is the most subscribed to and viewed cruise vlogger channel on YouTube, so why not join all those other cruise fans and let me help you make the most of your cruising adventures, by coming and taking a look at my Tips For Travellers YouTube Channel .

16 Best YouTubers That Will Change The Way You Travel

Prospective travelers and tourists have been turning to travel shows for years for advice on how to best prepare and appreciate destinations all over the globe. In the age of online videos and social media posts, the advent of travel programming through YouTube has grown considerably in popularity, with several online personalities offering entertainingly informative content. With so many vloggers popping up to launch their own YouTube channels, here are the best shows offered by the digital platform to improve one's travel game and gain a wider perspective on the world and its diverse cultures.

The following vloggers are divided into subcategories based on the focus of their respective programming, including budget travel , solo female travel, couple/family travel, food-centric travel, and adventurous getaways. Programs are evaluated on the quality of the information provided, the level of cinematography employed in the videos, the variety of content offered on each channel, and how engaging the host(s) are with the audience.

Budget Travel Vloggers: The Budgeteers

Perhaps the premier YouTube channel for how to maximize one's budget while traveling around the world, "The Budgeteers" provide audiences with a simple premise – how far can you travel on $1,000? The show is hosted by three backpackers from different corners of the globe, with Paddy from the United Kingdom, Thys from Belgium, and Lina from Colombia. Initially traveling alone, the three met each other on the road, with Paddy and Thys launching the show in 2015 and Lina joining them in 2016.

Each season of "The Budgeteers" tackles a different route. Those routes could include embarking on a trip from Los Angeles to Panama or traveling around Sri Lanka on the show's self-imposed money limit. With its three hosts, each with their own distinct personality, "The Budgeteers" is a must-watch for any prospective backpackers looking for advice. With each video clocking in around 30 minutes, "The Budgeteers" presents an entertaining, episodic look at life on the road and how to get the most out of exotic destinations with relatively limited funding.

Budget Travel Vloggers: PsychoTraveller

English travel vlogger Aly Ford decided to embark on a life of international travel shortly after completing her degree in clinical psychology, relocating to Australia before launching her YouTube travel show " PsychoTraveller ." More than simply showcasing destinations around the world, Ford offers the audience a look at her evolving life, from the emotional ups and downs of daily life to seeing the world from the road in her van. In addition to posting videos online, "PsychoTraveller" has also launched a blog , including a forum where contributors can share their own travel experiences.

Among the programming on "PsychoTraveller" are detailed breakdowns of how expensive specific destinations can be, hotel reviews (including stays at some of England's most poorly rated hotels), and easy-to-prepare recipes. Ford has compiled several of her videos into invaluable playlists, offering a fuller portrait of popular tourist destinations and how to best experience them on a budget. Both an invitation for viewers to follow in Ford's footsteps and a living document of Ford and the life changes she has experienced, "PsychoTraveller" gives online travel programming a more personal touch.

Budget Travel Vloggers: FunForLouis

For the past decade, English travel show host Louis Cole has led audiences with him around the globe in his YouTube series " FunForLouis ," sharing different adventures from his time abroad. Largely eschewing luxury accommodations, Cole's voyages usually involve him traversing his destinations in vans or a converted school bus as he checks out the sights on a modest budget. Part backpacking, part high adventure, "FunForLouis" offers a more DIY take on international travel and fun-filled experiences.

Cole also possesses a keen eye for videography, including providing 360-degree videos that allow for a more immersive, panoramic perspective on tourist-friendly spots, including Machu Picchu and Hobbiton. Cole has expanded his programming beyond "FunForLouis," adding the vegan cooking show " FoodForLouis " and " RayaWasHere ," a travel show hosted by Cole's fiance, Raya. With an emphasis on life on the road, either by eco-friendly vehicles or backpacking, "FunForLouis" provides a more stripped-down and back-to-basics approach to international travel.

After studying abroad in Prague, followed by a stint teaching English in Seoul after college, Drew Goldberg decided to shift to traveling full-time, sharing social media posts of his exploits under his nom de plume –  Drew Binsky .

More than just offering travel advice, Binsky uses his platform to spotlight interesting local figures around the world, providing mini-bios to further highlight different cultures and the individuals that define them. Offering bite-sized videos perfect to maintain a restless audience's attention, Drew Binksy has positioned himself as one of the foremost travel vloggers in the social media age.

Couple Travel Vloggers: Sailing La Vagabonde

A lot of the world can be seen from sailing the high seas, and the YouTube program " Sailing La Vagabonde " makes this seafaring odyssey something of a full family affair.

Tennessee couple Kara and Nate decided to take a year off from their daily lives and explore the world together in 2016 , chronicling their international voyage through their YouTube channel " Kara and Nate ." This seemingly whimsical plan proved enormously successful, with the married couple extending their life on the road for the foreseeable future and visiting 100 countries as part of the show by 2020. During the pandemic, "Kara and Nate" pivoted to a domestic cross-country program, traversing North America in a van, before returning to a global scope at the beginning of 2022.

The content in "Kara and Nate" runs the gamut of travel hacks to score bargain flights and find accommodations to stay in some of the most exotic hotels in the world.

O'Neil is acutely aware of how to keep an audience's attention in the age of timed social media posts and uses those conventional constraints as a creative strength in filming and editing her videos. O'Neil complements her YouTube channel with a regularly updated blog and active social media presence for those looking to go beyond the main "Travel Yourself" series.

At its core, "Migrationology" promotes how to sample authentic local cuisine, including those hole-in-the-wall spots that most tourists may overlook when visiting destinations around the world.

Based out of Bangkok with his wife, Wiens' show has a large focus on East and Southeast Asian cities but has expanded "Migrationology's" scope to include other locales in Asia, Europe, Africa, and Latin America. More than simply eating and drinking his way around the globe, Wiens delves into how different regions' signature cuisine is made as he delves into its connection to cultural identity. From extreme food eating challenges — like consuming Caribbean scorpion chili peppers — to examining how local societies inform gastronomy, "Migrationology" offers a wide palate of travel-driven food programming to enjoy.

Food Travel Vloggers: The Food Ranger

Launching his own YouTube channel in 2013, Trevor James shared videos online of himself sampling street food from around the world before graduating from college in Vancouver in 2014. Shortly after college, James relocated to Chengdu, China, and continued to produce food travel videos, under the title " The Food Ranger ," with a heightened focus on Asian street food. Nearly a decade into his career as a culinary documentarian, James has since moved to Kuala Lumpur while expanding the international scope of "The Food Ranger."

While initially focusing on street food in Asia, beginning with China, Thailand, and Singapore, James has broadened "The Food Ranger" to include episodes in places like Iran and Italy. The YouTube series provides full, in-depth tours of the street food scenes in each of its destinations along with the occasional extreme eating challenge.

With episodes spanning five continents, the Southams revel in the universal joys made possible by food and the process of preparing a variety of global dishes.

More than simply sampling local restaurants, kitchens, and street food, "Chasing a Plate" also showcases recipes for prospective cooks to attempt to recreate international dishes themselves. During the pandemic, the Southams took the opportunity to explore the different cuisine available across New Zealand, traveling from island to island in the archipelago before eventually resuming overseas travel. Engaging and professionally presented while maintaining a sense of down-to-earth charm, "Chasing a Plate" is easily one of the best food travel shows available to stream on YouTube.

Adventure Travel Vloggers: Fearless and Far

Host Mike Corey takes international adventure to the next level with his YouTube series " Fearless and Far ," living up to the title by traveling to the ends of the Earth to experience harrowing thrills. The Canadian backpacker not only undertakes extreme challenges but undergoes local customs that may make squeamish outsiders wince. For Corey , the goal is to highlight some of the most conventionally terrifying parts of the world to mitigate the stigma and invite others to face their fears on the road, too.

From spending extended periods with remote indigenous tribes in Africa and Indonesia to participating in an exploding hammer festival in Mexico, Corey shines a light on the few unexplored global cultures. Corey's challenges also extend to him putting his body on the line, from suspending himself by hooks through his skin to cleaning his liver with leeches in Poland. Not always for the faint of heart, "Fearless and Far" provides a more extreme and firsthand look at the more challenging cultural customs worldwide.

Adventure Travel Vloggers: Lost LeBlanc

Though much of LeBlanc's programming focuses on Southeast Asia, including guides to Bali and the numerous Philippine Islands, "Lost LeBlanc" has also spotlighted travels through Europe, South America, and the Middle East. Lost LeBlanc stands as the intersection between documentary travel filmmaking with international wish fulfillment as LeBlanc tries everything from living in a van for an extended period to seeing how far $50 in Bangkok gets him.

Their accents are hilarious.  They are hilarious.  Craig and Aimee have been together for a very long time, and their relationship has been strengthened by a near-death experience by each of them!  When they met, Aimee had just received a cancer diagnosis, and the road was long and hard.  Then, Craig challenged their relationship some more with a broken neck from an adventure sports accident. 

These two events, in a short span of time, convinced this crazy pair to chase after an unconventional life, and to live every moment to its fullest! Through it all, they have kept their joy and their sense of spontaneity.  Their motto is to “Rule Your Own World,” and they certainly do.  They have spent the last couple of years renovating a Mercedes Vario Bus into their new home.  Custard the Bus is a beauty, and her European adventures are just beginning. They have 500 travel videos for you to binge!  We think they are one of the best travel channels on YouTube and terribly underrated. 

What Makes Kinging It Special:

Craig and Aimee are absolutely hilarious.  They will have you wetting yourself, every episode!  Plus, they take on the wildest challenges.  They have completed the massive and absurd Mongol Rally, a competition that travels all through Europe and Asia, usually ending somewhere in Eastern Russia.  The car must be a clunker and have under a 1L engine, and chaos is highly encouraged!  Craig and Aimee’s Mongol Rally Series will have you rolling. Then these crazy kids bought their own rickshaw and proceeded to drive it from across India from North to South.  It was a wild ride.  Craig and Aimee are two personalities that you won’t soon forget, and their wild abandon, hilarious travel stories, and zest for life will make you want to live a little more freely, and “Rule your own world!”

Raya and Louis

Who are they:.

Raya and Louis are fairly new to the Travel YouTube scene as a couple, but Louis Cole has been in the biz for a long time.  His original channel, FunForLouis has over 2Million Subs, and it’s easy to see why.  Louis is just likable with his laidback vibe and a head full of dreadlocks. He’s an easy-going and loveable dude.  He and Raya are currently traveling through Europe in a rented van visiting family and taking holiday, but soon they will head back to their main mission.  They have about 50 videos out, so you can still easily catch up with the adventure.

What Makes Raya and Louis Special: 

Raya and Louis are into deep convos.  They have spilled the beans about the hard parts of their relationships and mental health issues, and there is just something about that level of vulnerability that makes you want to watch. They are also very eco-conscious and give great tips on how to travel in an eco-friendly way.  They have recently purchased land in Costa Rica to build a tree-house jungle community.  Like with everyone else, COVID changed their plans a bit, but soon, they will be making their way down to Costa Rica in their converted school bus to start a new life!  We can’t wait to see the community they build. 

Endless Adventure

Eric and Allison are the most charming couple from Missouri.  They’re sometimes Southern twang and complete and utter talent to be their quirky selves is both endearing and super funny.  Eric is a computer geek and a total self-proclaimed nerd.  Allison is red-headed beauty with the best big awkward laugh.  These two specialize in unique accommodations and lots of food! They always show us the best places to eat, and exactly what weird foods to try. 

Their lighthearted personalities and willingness to just be their nerdy selves make you instantly love them!  They have currently begun a tiny home renovation too, but not any old sprinter van would fit these two.  They have bought a completely run-down 1970s RV, and they are taking on the renovation completely by themselves!  Clementine  is going to be a beauty, and it has been an awesome journey to watch.  They have  737  videos for you to catch up on!

What Makes Endless Adventure Special:  

They make great videos.  They cover great content, but Allison and Eric are people you could watch read the phone book and be happy.  They are really enjoyable to watch, no matter what they are doing.  They obviously love one another. They love good beer and whiskey in equal measure, and they love a challenge.  They are awkward, funny, quirky, and absolutely adorable!  Keep it coming Eric and Allison. We love it all!

Who Is He:  

“Food is the reason you should travel.”  Well, Mark, we agree!  After University, Mark Wiens set out to find the world’s best street food.  He has traveled the markets of Southeast Asia, stalls of Japan, and he recently spent 16 days with the street vendors of Pakistan.  Mark’s channel is absolutely huge!  With over 8 million viewers, it’s obvious that we YouTube viewers really love food…and Mark.  Mark is an unassuming and charming guy. His great big smile, love for food, and humble demeanor are endearing.  Between his YouTube personality and his incredibly informative blog, Migrationology,  it’s no wonder he has so many faithful followers.  Mark has found a beautiful wife in Thailand and settled with his new family in Bangkok, but they still travel frequently in the hunt for the best street foods in the world!

What Makes Mark Special: 

Honestly, we all wish we knew Mark’s secret!  We think the secret to Mark’s success, aside from some great business savvy, is his magnetic personality.  Mark is one of the most positive personas online.  Even after over 1,100 videos on food, he still seems just as excited as he did with the first one!  Mark greets every new place and every new food adventure with gusto and genuine excitement.  Mark loves food, and we love Mark!

Travel Beans

Alex and Emma are a pair of Brits out traveling the world and documenting their “Tipsy Beans” moments.  They may or may not have a tendency to get a little inebriated while filming.  Alex is witty and his sarcasm comes at the most unexpected moments.  Emma is a doll and has been very prominent in the push for better mental health advocacy.  Emma has struggled with some depression issues, which they have well-documented in a two-part series on their channel.  Thankfully, she has received the help she needed and has come out on the other side.  She now uses their channel on occasion to express the importance of finding life and health in this world, and doing what makes you happy! They have recently started a van conversion as well, and we can’t wait to see what they come up with!

What Makes Travel Beans Special:  

Alex and Emma are truly authentic.  What you see is what you get: drunk, depressed, happy, angry, sarcastic, whatever is going on, you get the true and unfiltered version from them.  They are very funny, and who doesn’t love that perfect British accent? If sarcastic and loveable Brits adventuring is your thing, Alex and Emma have 485 videos just waiting for you!

Who Is She: 

Nadine is one of the oldest and best in the game.  For almost 10 years she has been traveling the globe, first as a solo traveler, then-wife, and now mother.  Nadine has been to almost 60 countries and is the travel tips queen!  She’s always got the best advice and little tricks to make your trip smoother.  Plus, she’s really funny.  Her vlog has transitioned a lot since becoming a new mother.  She posts much more of the daily grind and general lifestyle hacks, but we still can’t take our eyes off her.  Nadine has represented every big brand in the business, spoken at every travel conference, and landed all the awards.  She is the best, and yet she is humble and down to earth. We’ll watch you mom any day Nadine!

What Make Hey Nadine Special:  

Nadine has been in the wanderlust business a long time, and she just knows how to be in front of the camera.  She presents great info in a funny way, and she is joyful and energetic.  She is just fun to watch.

Lexi Limitless

Lexi is a new kid on the scene who has made a huge splash!! That’s all because she has the unique distinction of holding a Guinness World Record.  Lexie was the youngest person ever to travel to all 196 countries of the world.  She accomplished this feat before her 21st birthday!  Lexi is a remarkable young woman, and that level of travel has made her wise and mature beyond her years.

What Makes Lexi Limitless Special:   

This solo female traveler has literally experienced every culture on earth.  She has lived with remote African tribes and tried the world’s most nasty foods.  She is a lovely girl, with a great series of travel vlogs that cover a wide range of topics, obviously!  Her footage is surprisingly well-shot and well-edited. Lexie is just starting to roll out the videos from her years of travel, so go check her out now!

Alexander Ayling

Alex and Marko Ayling made YouTube travel content for years as the Vagabrothers.  They have now slowed on that, but Alexander is taking on a brand new adventure.  He has moved to New Zealand and bought a homestead with his wife Carrie. After a long hunt for the perfect property, they have finally found it, and the renovations have begun.  Alex and Carrie have big plans, and we can’t wait to see how it turns out!

What Makes Alexander Ayling Special:  

Alex is a filmmaker at heart.  His footage is perfect. Always.  Not to mention that Alex has a very distinct narrative style to his videos.  He wants his channel to feel like a place where you come to have a good chat with an old friend.  He truly lets you in on his life and leaves you wanting more!   Catch up on Alex and Carrie’s Renovation Dream here!

Wolter’s World

Wolter’s World has carved out his own nitch in the travel world.  Unlike the rest of the famous travel bloggers, Wolter doesn’t tell you what to do in a famous destination.  He tells you what not to do!  Brilliant.  Every great traveler wants to blend in and look like a local if possible, or at least not do anything too stupid!  Wolter helps us out in this realm.  He makes sure we know the “Top Ten Things NOT to do in El Salvador,” and everywhere else!  Wolter’s World has been in the game almost 10 years too, and his video collection is extensive.  If you want to make sure you don’t have massive culture shock, have all the do’s and dont’s, and know the down and dirty for your destination, Wolter is your guy!

What Makes Wolter’s World Special:  

Wolter has a special way of being able to present the good, the bad, and the ugly about a destination, in a respectful and culturally appropriate way.  He is not afraid to state the bad stuff, and we appreciate it.  Let’s be real. Every destination has its goods and bads, and any experienced traveler wants to know the less than glossy stuff before we arrive. So, we appreciate you, Wolter, keep it up!

Expert Vagabond

Matthew Karstan is a true vagabond.  His channel focuses on hiking and camping adventures and budget travel advice in some incredible and off-the-tourist-track places.  Matt has worked with everyone from Lonely Planet, to National Geographic, and Go Pro.  He excels as a travel blogger and photographer,  in print and social media. His travel blog tells exceptional stories of life on the road as a digital nomad. However, his YouTube channel is a fabulous collection of his adventures in true old-school vlogger fashion. He is genuine, experienced, and gives fantastic advice.

What Makes Expert Vagabond Special: 

Matthew is just a normal guy who loves nature and loves to travel the world.  He isn’t especially eloquent, and his videos aren’t overproduced.  He just gives great footage, great advice, and especially great travel experiences, from an expert traveler who has seen it all!

Eamon and Bec

Eamon and Bec are the quintessential van-lifers… or they were.  They were traveling in Morocco when COVID hit, and they had to abandon their van  Trinity  there.  Though they did get a new van and do a few trips, COVID made life tough for these Canadians.  They soon abandoned the van in favor of a cabin in the Canadian wilderness.  They are quite the DIYers and have entertained us thoroughly with their renovation successes and disasters!  Eamon is always on the move to the next crazy antic and Bec is just along for the ride.  Her great big laugh and gentle spirit make everyone love her.  Their next adventure is to buy another Canadian property to run as an Airbnb.

What Makes Eamon and Bec Special: 

E and B are another great couple that has proved during this pandemic that they could sit and do absolutely nothing, and we would still tune in every Sunday to get our fix!  We have watched them tackle everything from van conversions to home conversion, dog fostering, and more. And, we still can’t get enough. This delightful pair has over 300 vids for you to veg out on, and we know you’re gonna love them.

Rick Steves

Rick Steves is the king of all things travel-related. Period.  There are no better travel guide books on the planet! His fabulously detailed books and ridiculously nerdy audio guides have been leading us through Europe and making us snort-laugh for years! But, the YouTube videos he produces are just as good.  Rick isn’t really a vlogger in the traditional sense.  His videos are definitely professionally researched, written, filmed, and produced by a talented professional team.  They are just the right mix of fun and informative, with all the necessary information on tourist sites and local must-do items. 

What Makes Rick Steves Special:

In short, the experience.  Rick has traveled Europe extensively, with multiple visits to each country.  His team of local guides, researchers, and destination experts put for the most up-to-date and interesting information and leave out the fluff!  With well over 1800 videos to peruse, there really is no better place to get all your necessary trip information. 

Sailing la Vagabonde

Riley and Elayna have the world’s largest sailing YouTube channel.  These two Aussies are going through a transition though.  They recently had their second baby and sailed their last sail.  So, what is up for the crazy foursome now?  We don’t really know, but we know it will be fun!

What Makes Saling La Vagabonde Special: 

We have watched their whole relationship unfold from newly-mets who had never sailed, to season professionals with two beautiful kiddos. We don’t know what is in store, but we are guaranteed to stay tuned to see! 

New Travel YouTube Channels to Keep an Eye On

While we have focused most of this article on the oldies but goodies, there are some truly great channels that are just getting their start on YouTube.  For a few fresh faces in the travel industry, we suggest you subscribe to one of these awesome newcomers!

Jits into the Sunset

Tania and Adam are an Irish and English couple traveling the UK with their Sprinter van  Jitters.  They are different in the YouTube crowd.  They make travel vlogs, yes, but not all that often.  They are self-proclaimed slow travelers, who put out new videos whenever they feel like it. However, they are full of travel inspiration and well worth the wait.  

What Makes Jits Special:  

Adam and Tania do life van life their own way, and they don’t seem to get caught up in the travel YouTube channel game.  They make vlogs, but it doesn’t seem to rule their life.  They live on their own plane and do things in true freedom, and that’s an admirable way to live!

Lost Among Locals

Who are they: .

Ryan and Abby are a married couple from Arkansas.  They left their jobs and sold it all in early 2020: the big house, the cars, all of it! Little did they know COVID was coming. Like everyone on this list,  it changed their plans a bit, but they managed to Central America and start their world tour.  Ryan is quiet, slightly awkward, and you can tell he is the world’s nicest person.  Abby is sassy, funny, and you never know what might come out of her mouth!  

Ryan and Abby are culture vultures who genuinely love to learn about history, cultural oddities, and all the things that make different people groups unique.  They are full-time travelers and digital nomads, so their version of slow travel and international living is refreshing to watch. 

What Makes Lost Among Locals Special:  

They traveled internationally for 12 years before leaving for full-time travel and had already experienced several amazing destinations as a pair.  So, they bring a unique blend of touristy sites juxtaposed with everyday local life and budget travel tips.  They dance with Albanians at a baby’s birthday party, play street games with old Turkish men, and score the best local foods in every destination.  COVID definitely made local interaction harder for them, as they regrettably express, but we look forward to seeing more of their off-the-beaten-path lifestyle in the future!  Keep up the good work guys!

The Vandersons

Emily and Danny feel like instant friends.  They are just so likable.  Danny and Emily set out in their van, with their cat Graham and dog Sombrita right after they got married.  They have since been traveling through Central America with their nomad pet family! Their goal is to make the full journey from Seattle to Argentina in their tiny, colorful van.  Though they are new to video making, their vlogs are heartfelt and laidback.  Danny is a lifelong BMX biker and app developer, with a surfer boy vibe and Emily is the sweetest soul. If easy-going is the vibe you are after, these two have the vids for you! 

What Makes The Vandersons Special:  

Emily has a narrating voice that is absolute perfection. Their footage is good, but the real perk to watching the Vandersons is that they tackle destinations you have never heard of.  Because they travel full-time, at their own pace, they get to some truly off-the-beaten-path gems that you don’t get to see in many other travel vlogs. Plus, their delightful pet-filled family is just heartwarming, and it’s awesome to see a young couple so happy, living a crazy unconventional life to the fullest!  

That’s it, guys!  These are the best travel bloggers out there right now!  You have lots of new videos to binge, so you better get busy! Let us know in the comments, which of these bloggers is your favorite.
