Ok, so as time goes on it turns out virtually all the people whose travel blogs I followed have now returned home, meaning I need some new people to live vicariously through! So who's out there right now?

Here's a few folks out on the road (plucked randomly from my feedreader) —

  1. Two Backpackers: Documents the experiences of Jason Castellani and Aracely Santos as they travel the world in a journey of discovery.
  2. Uncornered Market: Two curious Americans exploring the world. Two years and counting! Sharing human stories, travel photography and street food reportage from rapidly changing countries.
  3. Sending Postcards: Alex and Mina are about to leave their home in Winnipeg, canada to run away together. They have a lot to do to get ready and they want to tell you about it.
  4. Mark Wiens' Migrationology: World wanderer, professional spicy food connoisseur, and skilled relaxer. Mark Wiens loves to travel, hike, and eat…and do this in the most relaxing way possible.
  5. Jay & Corina's Backpacking Adventure: Jason and Corina keep you informed on how they are doing on their RTE trp day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to-month! From the planning stage onward.
Lots more located here in our blogroll — which admittedly needs updating as a few people have finished up their trip in the six months since we started listing them.

I and my husband have been on the road since April 2009 and hit more than 20 countries. Our traveling blog is relatively new, but now I'm active in updating it with our stories.

Kate and Dan, thanks for mentioning us in your list of active travel blogs. For those that are interested, Aracely and I are backpacking through Latin America. We post articles, photos and most importantly HD videos of our experiences. We have already visited Central America, and we are now traveling in Peru.

My wife and I are currently cycling from Indonesia to India. We have already spent 10 months on the road:

-5 months Indonesia (Flores, Sulawesi, West Kalimantan, Sumatra)
- 2 month in Borneo
- 1 month in Malaysia
- 2 months in Thailand

We are currently in northern Thailand and will head towards Laos next. We have plenty of publications from daily blog (on CrazyGuyOnABike) to Vlog (on YouTube).

It's easiest to become a fan of our facebook page to keep track of all our stuff:

As my own trip comes closer and closer I've also found myself perusing numerous blogs of other travelers. Many of them have already been mentioned. Two though, at least that I've seen, haven't been mentioned quite yet.

There's http://www.marriedwithluggage.com. They're not beginning their trip until October but have some amazing articles already about their planning stage.

There is also one by a guy from the same small city as I who began his trip just before Christmas last year. http://www.skinnybackpacker.com. The funny thing is how I stumbled upon his blog. My mom was talking to a financial advisor and my trip came into the conversation. Her financial advisor is this particular bloggers father. Small World!

Good to see a current list of of people wandering the globe or those in the same category as myself. I can not believe 2010 is finally here. Its been so long. Fingers crossed that I manage to jump the final few hurdles but all going well I'm heading off with a planned departure in November.

So close yet so far.
