   Thanks for compiling the list of women travel bloggers and for including me. Although I know quite a few of the bloggers on the list, there are some new faces too, I'll have a look at their blogs and make contact.

   What a great idea to help connect women travel bloggers! I do agree that family and women can learn so much and help each other by connecting through cyberspace. There are lots of people out there looking and asking the same questions.

   I remember looking just like you did and I still keep my eye out for new sources as we all learn different aspects to share.

   Thanks so much for including us! Great list. We are primarily focused on family, so there are some people that I did not know about & others that I am very fond of. Great!

   I sure wish I could have been at BlogHer, but northern Europe is taking up our summer.

   I find the family/children forums at major sites like Bootsnall, Lonely Planet, Fodors, Frommers, etc also a good source.

   Hi Debbie - don't forget us!

   http://www.travelswithchild.org - a group travel blog with two moms, Fran (::waves hi::) and Rachel, as the lead editors and writers.

   We write about local, long-distance, and international travel with our kids, as well as things we've personally used and/or read that make it better, easier, and more fun. There are what-we-took lists and how-tos, as well as tips from other wise writers and bloggers.

   From North Island, New Zealand, via RV and Athens, Greece, by stroller, to great things to do in Philly, DC, Baltimore, San Francisco, and the Southwest. With more coming in every week.

   Thanks for grouping these great writers all together -

   Hi Debbie,

   What a great list - thanks! As a blogging newbie (less than a month old!) it is so exciting for me to find such a community out there. If you could add my blog, www.europestring.com - traveling Europe on a budget, that would be great!

   Wow, this is terrific. I've got some clicking to do!

   And while we're getting connected, can I pitch my new forum here? I've added a travelboggers forum to Nerd's Eye View and you, ALL OF YOU, are so welcome. Join. Discuss. Be connected. Like that.

   www.nerdseyeview.com/forum

   Thanks so much for putting all this info together in one place. I hope we can all stay connected and trade tips, etc.

7. Gudrun on July 23, 2008 at 5:42 p.m.
   

   this is a great list Debbie, thank you for putting it together. I really enjoyed meeting other travel bloggers and look forward to building a community around this topic. Thanks for getting us started!

   Cheers,

8. PatriciaJ on July 23, 2008 at 5:47 p.m.
   

   What a helpful post. Thanks for taking an idea and making it happen. I will join in on Pam's forum and I hope we can continue to build this group on and offline.

9. Austin Hill on July 23, 2008 at 6:49 p.m.
   

   This is a great list!
   It's been hard to find any real community of travel bloggers, so this is an excellent thing to have.
   One fine lady & travel blogger who ought to be on the list is Kelly Goodman (ok, so I'm biased) She's based in Seattle and is the co-founder of www.travellious.com, as well as a travel addict.

    Hi, Debbie,

    I'm Claudine. I'm a travel blogger at www.vacation-tip.com. I also host a blog carnival called, "Destinations."

    Debbie, thanks for compiling this list, and for including me on it!

12. Dominique on July 24, 2008 at 11:36 a.m.
    

    I'm interested in starting my own blog (most likely with an emphasis on travel in Michigan and surrounding states), and I stumbled across this list in the course of my research about blogging and travel blogs. Your list gives me lots of great places and examples to explore as I go through the process of deciding how to best approach establishing my own blog and voice. Thanks so much!

13. Nancy Brown on July 24, 2008 at 7:57 p.m.
    

    Hey Debbie,
    You are so efficient. Thanks for putting this list together so quickly. It was great meeting you at BlogHer.
    FYI, travelbloggers can also reach me on Twitter.

    Hi Debbie,

    This is Beth (DesertMama) from TravelingMamas.com. We would love to be included, too!

    I didn't know about many of these blogs. I'm going to have a blast reading them. Thanks for listing them.

    That's great you made to BlogHer, we all wanted to be there but couldn't swing it.

    Happy Travels! B

    Great idea! I have two travel blogs http://mrstscampwest.blogspot.com and http://christys-cruising.blogspot.com Would you be interested in adding them? I will post links to your blogs on mine as well! Keep up the great work!

    Great list! I am also a woman (despite the boy's name) an I blog about the great city of Tokyo at
    <a href="http://www.thetokyotraveler.com">The Tokyo Traveler</a>

    I participate in a couple of social media sites related to Japan and have also noticed the prevalence of male bloggers on the subject.

    Thanks for pulling this list together Debbie - girl power!

    This is an amazing list. Thank you so much for putting it together.

    I'd love to be added to the list. I'm blogging my open-ended, indefinite US cross country road trip at:

    Your Mileage May Vary
    http://mileometer.net

    Lots of gadget reviews, restaurant reviews, accommodation reviews, travel tips, and stories from the road.

    Thanks again!

    I love this blog its wonderful. I have always wanted to travel and write. Wonderful blog!

    I know sometimes it's hard to tell, but I am a female blogger, too :)

    You can find me blogging about no-budget travel (with sample budgets, tips, tricks, news and photos, as well as a weekly carnival) at Less Than a Shoestring: http://nobudgettravel.wordpress.com

    A couple female bloggers who have yet to be mentioned off the top of my head are Nora Dunn (who I often catch at WiseBread), Antonia Malchik (Sheila's colleague at Perceptive Travel Blog), and Meredith Franco Meyers of EuroCheapo blog.

24. Rebecca on July 27, 2008 at 4:22 a.m.
    

    Hi! I just came upon your blog. I also started a blog about traveling. Mainly I am telling my stories about being a flight attendant. :) Check it out.

    Nice to meet you! Great list - please add us too. Sorry we missed you on Friday at the travel meet up at BlogHer. We could only make Saturday, but had a great time.

    Thanks for checking us out!

26. Christine on July 28, 2008 at 5:07 p.m.
    

    What a fabulous list and a great idea! We are a "long haul Destination" for most of you so I don't know if I can be included on your list but my blog is the South African Travel Blog which is at http://www.sa-venues.com/blog/default.... In case any of you ever decide to visit South Africa we also have a Family-friendly section on the website :). I would love to network with any women travel bloggers! My e-mail address is christine (at) web site domain.

27. k.a.t.calvin on July 28, 2008 at 9:19 p.m.
    

    This is so great! I'm so glad to see travel bloggers coming together! I just started a blog, www.bapworld.com, with travel stories, ideas, news, and inspiration for women and especially African-American women. I've been reading some of the blogs on this list for a while and they're wonderful!

    Thanks!

    There are a lot of us out here. Seeing your list makes me wonder if it's more effective to be more focused. Me, I go whenever and wherever I can so my blog is a mixed bag of destinations and what's going on when I'm not on the road. Please check me out at:

    Just thought I'd come back and let you know that I got my new blog up and running.

    I'm at http://www.midwestguest.com

    The blog's focus is primarily travel around the Midwest.

    Thanks again for this list :)

32. laradunston on August 8, 2008 at 1:31 a.m.
    

    Great list! There were a few there I wasn't familiar with!

33. kathleenbusybee on August 17, 2008 at 9:46 a.m.
    

    Thanks for the list--there are so many blogs I've never heard of and will have to check out. You left out my favorite family travel site of all, WeJustGotBack.com. Wonderful readers' tips section, hotel reviews that cover the stuff I want to know, and good advice on planning and booking trips. I stumbled on WeJustGotBack.com because their articles appear on MSNBC.com, another good place for travel articles.

34. Debbie on August 20, 2008 at 11 a.m.
    

    @kathleenbusybee

    I agree, WeJustGotBack is a great resource, the only reason I didn't include them is that they're not a blog.

35. Jamjama on August 29, 2008 at 9:15 a.m.
    

    Great list, and a wonderful resource for those of us just getting started.

    My blog, jamjama.wordpress.com, is about my year as a student in Alexandria, Egypt, though I certainly hope to get some regional travel in there. The title is arabic, and means (roughly) "gibberish."

36. Gray on September 16, 2008 at 10:40 a.m.
    

    Great resource! I'm bookmarking this list. I'm a woman blogger, too. My blog is SoloFriendly.com, and it's a blog for solo travelers, though I sometimes touch on issues that would be relevant for any travelers.

37. Heather on her travels on September 21, 2008 at 11:55 p.m.
    

    I'd love to be part of your women bloggers list - I blog about travelling with friends or family and in between trips I write about my home town of Bristol.

    Hi Debbie,

    What a great list! I'm glad I'm having a sleepless night and came upon it.

    I blog about family travel and have just published a guidebook, The Unauthorized Guide to Legoland California available through LULU.com. Could you please add my blog www.familyadventureguidebooks.com?

    I blog about traveling with kids and share my families travel adventures. I would love some new readers so stop by and say hi!

    Thanks,

42. Caroline Allison on November 30, 2008 at 9:42 p.m.
    

    Hi Debbie!

    This is fantastic information! Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Do you know everyone on your list?

    It would make sense to get together some place fun - do a girls' blogger's event, huh?

    Let me know if there would be an interest. We can organize a get together on http://viscape.com, which makes it so much easier to plan around vacation homes. I may be able to arrange a deal on housing, depending on where we select.

    Likewise, please let me know if you come across events and meetups as well!

    LOL,

    Caroline

46. Lauren on January 15, 2009 at 4:17 p.m.
    

    Debbie,

    What an awesome list - I'm so happy to have stumbled upon it. Like other posters have said, I've been looking for a travel bloggers' community, and a women travel bloggers' community is even better!

    I'm quite surprised and impressed that so many of us are in Seattle, too.

    BTW I blog about budget travel in the pacific northwest at <A href="http://www.nwcheapsleeps.org"> www.nwcheapsleeps.org. </A>

    Hi Debbie,

    You might want to check out my travel blog, <A HREF="http://www.theasiantraveler.com/">The Asian Traveler </A> (http://www.theasiantraveler.com). I blog about our travel adventures in Asia from attractions to hotels and restaurants.

    I'm glad, I stumbled your site and I'm happy to see your awesome list of women travel bloggers. Thanks for sharing it. :)

49. Scribetrotter on February 17, 2009 at 8:30 a.m.
    

    Woo-hoo, what a fantastic resource! I think I'm going to spend hours going through all of them...

    Please have a look at http://www.women-on-the-road.com, for some inspiration, insight and information for women who backpack on their own.

50. Claire Marie Algarme on February 17, 2009 at 10:08 p.m.
    

    This is a great list. I also write blogs about my travels. Most of them are posted at my multiply site (http://clairealgarme.multiply.com). I'm building a new site http://firsttimetravel.wordpress.com/. I also write for Our Asia that Travels website. Travel writing is my passion and I hope that by doing so, I am able to share my travel experiences with others.

51. Rachel Cotterill on February 23, 2009 at 4:30 a.m.
    

    What a great idea :) I have a travel slot on my blog every Tuesday (featuring a shot from a previous trip) and then extra posts each time I take a new trip - in the meantime there's quite a bit of other stuff, too, so I don't know whether I qualify but I am a woman who travels & blogs about it! Looking forward to a read through this list when I have a little more time.

52. Lara Dunston on March 1, 2009 at 12:36 a.m.
    

    Fab list! I have a lot of those on my blog roll, but lots that are new to me, which is always nice to see. I find it extraordinary how there are so many overlapping communities out there, but still it's possible to keep discovering new blogs and bloggers every day - wonderful!

    I blog on Cool Travel Guide, of course, on the things that I find cool about travel (and things that are not so cool too) as a travel writer - destinations, writing, the industry, the travel media, etc.

53. Fiona Leonard on April 18, 2009 at 4:01 a.m.
    

    heheh guess I'm not the only one doing something useful with my sleepless hours!

    Wonderful list, I now feel part of a huge community of women travel bloggers.

    I'm an Aussie mum in the midst of a 12month journey around North America with my husband, daughter and the dog! Love to have you drop by:

54. Donna M. Airoldi on July 1, 2009 at 1:42 p.m.
    

    Hi Debbie,

    Thanks so much for adding TravelMuse to your list! But I just want to clarify that Fiona is our marketing director who came on board nearly a year after the company started. I was the first hire and as editorial director was responsible for all editorial content on the site, including the TravelMusings blog. I'm very sad to say though that as of this week there will no longer be any new articles or blog posts as the company has decided to no longer support that area of the site.

    It was a great run, and I hope the readers who discovered us found our content useful.

    Thanks,
    Donna

57. Carol Margolis on February 27, 2010 at 7:09 p.m.
    

    Thanks for providing a great list of fellow women travel bloggers! I found the same lack of travel advice for women, especially business traveling women, so I started http://www.smartwomentravelers.com and http://www.pearlsoftravelwisdom.com.
