Carnival of Travel Articles #1

Welcome to the first-ever Carnival of Travel Articles on Travel Minx, showcasing recent articles and photos submitted by fellow travel bloggers. Click here to learn more and submit your own work.

I’ve received so many entries already that I thought I’d post this edition a little early. Hope no one minds. This is also the first-ever Carnival I’ve hosted so please bear with me if there are any glitches.

Thanks to all those who submitted articles, there are some talented writers and great stories out there! The next Carnival will be hosted again here at the end of July. Submit your articles here.
