Vagabond Tales and What You Read

So I’ve been wondering what you have really enjoyed reading about in my travels and what sort of stories should I continue to tell.

For a while I wrote quite detailed summaries of almost each and everyday of my travels but that can get quite tiring from my own perspective and I don’t even know if you are really interested in reading about it.

Lately I’ve been thinking of a few different formats for my travelogue posts.

Travel Exploits

These are the ridiculous tales from the road, whether it’s a 22 hour bus ride from Atlanta to Austin, my first day in Seattle where I never came home, or riding a horse for the first time.  These are the highlights and the hijinx on the road.

City Reviews

Overall reviews and descriptions of the cities I’ve been visiting.  Particular highlights and things to do in the city when you visit and maybe a rating system of some sort.

Cafe & Restaurant Reviews

This is where I write about the various venues of food I visit as I travel.  I love food and I really enjoy writing about my experiences with it.  They’ll highlight service, menu, price, etc. and I’ll give you a breakdown of things you really want to try when you get there.

Business Reviews

I detailed Lash’s Place recently as an example of an outstanding business that I’ve come upon in my travels.  These could be anything from people I’ve come upon who have businesses that resonate with me to services that I think are useful for the vagabond life.

Vagabond Vistas

Landmarks, vistas, and tourist-like things that stand out in the places I visit.  Short and hopefully media rich (when I get a camera).

Life on the Road

More philosophical and introspective discussion about living on the road, out of a suitcase, and how to deal with the lows and highs of a vagabond life.

Which ones have appealed to you in the past?

What would you want to read about in the future?
