Just keeping up with the pictures that one takes on this kind of a journey is a full time job and hard to do on the road while moving! We are starting our 3rd year of travel as a family and still trying to figure this all out. <br><br>It really helps if one is a geek ( we are not). We never set out to have a successful travel blog, so it can happen even to those who are clueless. LOL! I think it is really about finding your niche. <br><br>It is far too much work for a short trip, that is for sure. Good content is always the key, but harder to do on the move. <br><br>I have to give you kudos for your podcasts! More than what we want to take on, but we are enjoying Youtube and our success there. <br><br>If one is on a long extended, open ended world tour as we both are, a travel website and all that goes with that is a fun , creative outlet! Also one learns a lot of great information to pass on....one becomes an expert in a field many are interested in. <br><br>We have enjoyed sharing our story with schools and homeschoolers and are thrilled to be taking disadvantaged kids this year from schools in NYC through a non-profit. More work though, so we will see how that goes! ;) Um....I thought I was suppose to be early retired. lol. Oh, so true!
