Male Minority Travel Influencers/Content Creators

The Comprehensive Guide To Male Minority Travel Influencers/Content Creators

 
 
It’s extremely important to hear different perspectives in the travel space as our view points and experiences are a product of who we are and from whence we came.

The Male Minority voice is often not heard in the travel industry. Perhaps its our fault or maybe not…

So I’m attempting to fix that today, by sharing a list of male minority travel influencers worldwide. There is no ranking as its not a competition; the list is alphabetic.

I’ve met some of these fine gentlemen and others have been referred to me. You will find that our experiences are as varied as how we look and that we are from all over the world.

My goal is to expose you to us, so you may see how we travel and hopefully, we will inspire you to do the same.

Feel free to share the list as you deem necessary. Also, if I’ve missed anyone you know please send me an email or leave a comment below.

So, without further ado, here are the guys:

Guarav Bhan Bhavnagar – The Spunky Traveler

 

Guarav Bhan Bhavnagar says he’s a dreamer from India. As a child he used to flip the pages of his pocket atlas and explore far off places for hours.

Too bad that the book got stolen, he continues. His dreams to travel were not stolen thankfully.

Having spent half a decade in corporate job, one day while watching National Geographic, he thought if an American can get paid to travel, why can’t an Indian?

So, he sold his belongings so he could travel to Thailand for a month. When he returned home, he was sure what he needed to do. ‘Travel, and live off it’. And eventually he’s doing just that and hoping to inspire others to do the same.

Calvin Hearns – Calvin Chronicles

 

Calvin Hearns enjoys travel and enjoys the experiences gained from traveling.

While he’s not always had the opportunity to travel in his adult life as much as he’d like, He has become fortunate enough to attempt to make up for it over the last few years.

During the course of his most recent travels he’s noticed that others found enjoyment from seeing or hearing about what he’s experienced.

In sharing his observations, he’s found that he wanted a way to better capture his experiences while being able to share more about them as well.

So the Chronicles was launched.

A big reason Calvin enjoy travel is because of his parents. His mother is a retired teacher who helped him to enjoy learning and to appreciate history.

His father is retired military and encouraged him to know more about the world around him.

Thus, his upbringing has helped him tremendously in his travels.

DeNorris Johnson - Travel and Truth

DeNorris Johnson – Travel and Truth

DeNorris Johnson runs the blog Travel and Truth. He’s born and raised in Atlanta, GA, he was one of those guys who rarely left the city limits. Oddly enough, he never stepped foot in an airport until he went to college and didn’t get a passport until he was 24.

He always wanted to travel to the places he saw on TV and promised himself that he would save as much money as possible to make his travels a reality. He did anything and everything to save money; from driving a beat-up car around Atlanta for years, to still holding on to his flip phone years after everyone graduated to smart phones. It paid off and he started traveling.

Travel and Truth is his visual platform, which showcases his travels throughout Africa and the African Diaspora. For decades, Africa and the Diaspora have been portrayed as full of poverty, crime, terrorism, Ebola, AIDS, and people living in huts with no history.

Travel and Truth aims to portray the Africa and Diaspora that DeNorris experiences while backpacking: A land full of rich culture, adventure, modern cities, beautiful scenery, tons of fascinating history, and beautiful people.

Juan Martinez – The Traveler’s Buddy

 

Juan Martinez is from Colombia. Since he was a kid he wanted to finish high school, go to college and get a job as soon as possible.

However, before he finished high school he had the chance to travel to Europe and learn a new language.

At first, he thought it was a nice experience, but he never thought that it would change his life the way it did. He had never traveled before and, like many Colombians, practically had no idea what the word “travel” really meant.

For him, it was something you do every other year when you relax in a nice hotel trying to make the most out of the few weeks of vacation you get. Traveling to Germany and being exposed to a different culture opened his eyes and enabled him see the world in a completely different way.

Since that year, his life goal became to travel as much as he could and not just let his life pass by. He decided to stay in Germany and follow his dreams.

Eight years have passed and he’s been to more than 60 different countries, experienced the most beautiful and astonishing sunrises and sunsets, eaten all different kinds of food, lived through many adventures and he’s happy about the road he chose.

On The Traveler’s Buddy, Juan shows you how he is fulfilling his dreams and how you can do it too.

Arnab Nandy, aka Andy, loves to travel. As a kid growing up in Kolkata, India, he traveled a lot across India with his parents.

He became seriously addicted to travel in 2011, when he took his first solo trip to Thailand. During that nine-day trip, he made some great friends, ate awesome food and experienced new places like he had never done before.

In addition, he managed to spend much less than his budget for the trip. Since then, he has traveled to several places both within India and outside, and every time, he’s managed to have great experiences while traveling on a shoestring budget.

Many people ask him how he manages to save enough for the amount of traveling that he does, especially considering the low value of the Indian Rupee (INR). Yes, he does save to travel. But he also knows tricks that helps him travel cheap but awesome.

His friends and family often ask him for budget travel advice and since he loves helping them out, he created his Web site.

Brian Oliver - Beyond Bmore

Brian Oliver – Beyond Bmore

 

Brian Oliver was born and raised on the west side of Baltimore, Maryland. He’s a graduate of Baltimore City College High School and Towson University with a B.S. in Political Science.

His love for travel and empowerment began as a young boy. Many days were spent following behind and riding in the car with his grandfather on various local and domestic journeys, as he carried out his duties as a minister.

The excitement of seeing new places, meeting new people and observing the cultural differences that existed right in my local communities, as well as the nation at large was unshakable. As he grew older and began to travel more domestically (U.S.) on my own and with friends, the beast obsessed with adventure continued to grow.

Once he eventually realized that the myths of international travel being very expensive and difficult to pursue were false, it was all she wrote. One passport stamp has lead to another and the quest to see the world and enrich the lives of those around him continues.

Yaya – Hand Luggage Only

 

I met Yaya in Ostrava, Czech Republic after he and the other half of Hand Luggage Only, Lloyd, did their talk at TBEX, a Travel Bloggers Conference. He was taking timeout to talk with everyone after the talk. He never once wanted to leave until he had spoken to everyone who was waiting.

Yaya founded Hand Luggage Only with his partner Lloyd when he was back in Cambridge University in 2014. Today, they travel around the world, sharing their travels with their readers.
