    Honoring World Tourism Day: Top 8 Travel Photographers to Follow

    TABLE OF CONTENTS

      Did you know World Tourism Day is commemorated every single year on September 27? Yeah, that’s right! Ever since 1980, the United Nations World Tourism Organization has celebrated this day in order to foster awareness of the pivotal role tourism plays in the community and celebrate the advantages of worldwide travel. Unlike anything else, travel allows us to step out of our comfort zones to explore beyond our surroundings, awakening a reverence and deep respect for the world around us. While learning about other cultures enhances our everyday lives, making us richer, connecting with new people dramatically deepens our understanding of the diverse customs and languages of other nations.

      @kirstenalana

      Manhattan-based travel photographer Kirsten Alana has one of the hottest Instagram accounts at the moment, with over 228k fans already subscribed to her feed.

      The opportunity to partner with @amarula_official for this trip to Kenya has already been a dream come true and we only just arrived last night. During our coffee stop in the middle of this morning's expedition, @richardhaubrich of @instagram_sa took this photo of me sipping Amarula & coffee. We had pulled over to the side of the road after spending an hour observing elephants who all have names. Given to them by locals and researchers, including Dr. Paula Kahumbu - our guide, the names are only one aspect that helps me want to protect these gentle giants. When you observe them, you can see how family-oriented they are, how human-like they even are at times. It quite seriously breaks my heart to think that where I see such a beautiful animal who deserves to be protected, others see only a commodity, or an opportunity. More on the elephants themselves in my next post. There's so much more to tell! #Amarula #DontLetThemDisappear #MadeFromAfrica 🐘 #onsafari #kenyasafari #safaristyle
