Roaming Rachael

Notes from the Road: Interview with Erik Gauger

Notes from the Road is a recent addition to TravelBlogs, but it's been around since 1999. The site combines Erik Gauger's stunning photography – shot on a traditional large-format film camera – with his engaging stories about ordinary places.

These days, the site is attracting quite a bit of attention, thanks in part to Erik's detailed coverage of a small Caribbean island's struggle with an American golf course developer.

TravelBlogs caught up with Erik to talk more about travel, photography and the Guana Cay conflict.

Much has changed over those months as James has written about his trip to India and hiking around the United Kingdom. His adventures are just beginning.

    • Phil in the Blank Blog profile

      Phil Paoletta was a school teacher in Washington D.C. when he decided his batteries needed a bit of recharging. Having studied in Ghana a few years ago, Phil finds himself back in the country.

    • Raising Miro on the Road of Life Blog profile

      It’s been a year since Lainie and her son, Miro (then age 10), began their quest to live more simply on the road of life.

Their website is a combination of blogs and podcasts that are truly inspirational.
