The stories behind a travel blogger

17/03/2019

Travel bloggers seem to no longer be a strange concept in today's society. Known as people with a passion for traveling, often traveling and sharing their experiences with people around them, however, few people know that hidden behind those beautiful photos and videos are countless worries of a person called a travel blogger.

On the evening of March 16, at the Travel Fest 2019 tourism promotion festival co-organized by Travellive and Aeon Mall, the lark prince Quang Vinh and the handsome travel blogger Ly Thanh Co shared with the Travel Fest audience the true stories, even those few people expected, behind the thousands of likes posted on Instagram and their travel videos with hundreds of shares.

In addition to being a music idol of many 8x and 9x generations, Quang Vinh is also a travel blogger with the Quang Vinh Passport video series to share useful travel experiences and information. He believes that anyone who travels wants to keep beautiful images, so even though making a travel video requires a lot of effort, he still feels very happy because he can inspire everyone.

“The scenery outside is many times more beautiful, so you have to come and experience it yourself.” That is what Quang Vinh emphasized in the talk show. The singer shared that traveling has supported and brought endless inspiration to his creative and performing work. Therefore, he believes that “there are no rules” in becoming a travel blogger because it depends largely on each person’s passion and talent. The most important thing is not to consider travel blogger as a profession.

Sharing the same opinion with singer Quang Vinh is travel blogger Ly Thanh Co. As the author of one of the best-selling travel books “Youth in your wallet, what can you buy?” and having traveled to 36 countries, Co also believes that travel blogging should be considered a passion, a hobby instead of a profession. Everyone should have a main job with a stable source of income, then use that income to serve their passion for travel.

As someone who spends a lot of time developing his travel blog, Co said that on each trip, he spends 60% of his time recording information, taking photos, and filming; the remaining 40% is spent immersing himself in his own moments. Because of this concept of "the important thing is the experience, not the number", out of the 36 countries he has been to, there are many countries he has visited at least twice. Every time he visits, he has many new experiences.

Travel blogger Ly Thanh Co emphasized that traveling should be supported by one's main source of income instead of considering travel blogging as a profession.

It is known that in the near future, singer Quang Vinh plans to visit the land of African and European cultural exchange - Morocco to "touch reality" himself, visit famous architectural works and admire the typical decorations here. As for Ly Thanh Co, Turkey will be his next destination. Although he has been here twice and will soon be the third time, Co is still very eager to experience more deeply the unique cultural features of this land of Asian - European cultural exchange.
