Now, where would I be without my fellow bloggers? I am so fortunate, and I have so much appreciation that the blogging community actually lifts and helps to build each other up. When I first started, I never imagined how many other bloggers want you to be successful too. There were so many guides and how-to’s which was very encouraging as I started The Wonder Lotus Lifestyle and found my footing as a new blogger. It took a lot of research to discover the kind of pages I was drawn to, but I learned about what I wanted and liked and things I didn’t necessarily want on my page. I also came to find out there is a blog post for literally everything you could possibly imagine. There is an incredible amount of amazing resources at the ready!
Top Blogs I Enjoy
Here is a list of the Top 10 Blogs I enjoy and find myself going back to or even recommending to other people in everyday conversation. From Food to Travel to Lifestyle and Careers, there is something for everyone!
The Everygirl
The Everygirl is so cool…Talk about a powerhouse, it creates an excitement for life when reading! The page says it is geared toward the career-driven woman and it is just that, so fierce, as all women are! It’s definitely one of my favorite blogs to date with the main focus being a well-rounded you. I love how it touches on so many topics such as beauty, fashion, wellness, career, finances and the list doesn’t stop there! It’s an absolute bank of useful content that you’ll keep going back to again and again. I consider The Everygirl to be an inspirational page for me because of the energy and excitement I feel when reading the different posts, something I hope you feel when visiting my page.
The Blonde Abroad
Kiki is so cute! Known as an award-winning travel blogger, her blog is so much more than just about travel! Especially now that she is pregnant, she is thoroughly embracing it and documenting it all for us. She has seriously also lived so many lives. From traveling all over the world, working in other countries, starting an award-winning blog and now taking on Motherhood, she is truly an inspiration. The page mainly features travel tips, packing guides, videos and photography from around the world but there is something for everyone and I highly recommend checking it out! Fun Fact, The Blonde Abroad seriously helped me so much when starting The Wondering Lotus Lifestyle. I felt like she truly cares about inspiring you to become successful. She shares so much info on how to get started and not feel overwhelmed. Thanks Kiki!!!
Poosh
Reminds me of reading a Cosmopolitan magazine. Founded by Kourtney Kardashian, it’s edgy and the posts are so LA! For an LA born and raised girl I find this page to be very fun and totally relatable and other times I feel attacked Haha! There is something for everyone though! Home workouts, Recipes, Sex Topics, Fashion and so much more. It is self-proclaimed as “the modern guide to living your best life. Our mission is to educate, motivate, create, and curate a modern lifestyle, achievable by all” LOVE THIS MISSION STATEMENT!
Oneika the Traveler
Coming across this page I was blown away with how alive I felt just looking at it! Oneika adds such a colorful splash of life to her blog. She’s also an award-winning travel and lifestyle blogger who now has her own TV show on the Travel Channel! Get it girl. She goes after it all! Having traveled to over 120 countries she has some great insight on the who, what and where for so many places. She is also a huge advocate for traveling as a person of color and giving a voice to those dealing with racially sensitive topics while traveling.
Alex in Wanderland
Alex in Wanderland has a great page sharing her travel journeys through a New Yorkers state of mind that has been featured in several different magazines. I find her posts to be really interesting, however her take can be a little bit more stiff than others but in a get to the point kind of way, which we can all appreciate. There are so many topics to read about, she has a great resource bank and in 2022 she will host retreats for like minded people from all over the world. Sounds like fun!
Santorini Dave
Don’t let the name fool you. Santorini Dave isn’t a page all about Santorini even though there is so much beauty to write about and he absolutely does! He covers all things Greece, the Greek Islands and then some. I came across SD long before my own trip to Greece where I visited Crete and Santorini in 2021. He writes about all of his worldwide travels and experiences. Specializing in Greece! His page is super minimal and has a less than modern look but there is everything you want to know included in it and it’s such a well known successful travel blog. His take on travel and hotels keep the readers wanting more even if it is somewhere you aren’t planning to visit.
Nomadic Matt
My Dude. He’s so bad @ss not to mention easy on the eyes! His story about becoming a blogger is an inspiration in itself! At 23 he first left the US to Thailand, and it inspired him to quit his cubicle job, finish his MBA and begin traveling the world and blogging about all of his experiences. He is so successful, selling books, travel insurance, and other amazing guides. His overall goal is “How can I help other people travel better for less?” Sign me up!! I’m so about it and always ready to save a few bucks. If you’re planning on traveling soon you’ll want some pointers from Matt too!
