The Corona pandemic has slowed global mobility quite a bit, which is perceivable in the reduced output of famous travel bloggers -photographers, and -enthusiast. Nevertheless, there are also some perks to the reduction in the migration levels of adventure-hungry travelers – most of the places are not as overcrowded as they usually are, which does have a positive impact on the imagery and experience all those have who are not locked down at home.
To all those who are locked down at home, the few who share their impression abroad are an Anker to sanity. Even though you are physically stuck to a place or country, your mind can continue exploring all those beautiful corners of the world. Here are seven inspiring people who go to great lengths to bring the world to us and our screens.
