NY--Have you ever wanted to kiss a giraffe in Kenya? Or watch the
sun rise from a jacuzzi in the Philippines? Or ride on a Vespa along the Amalfi
Coast? Dream no more! InstaTravel will help you turn your travel fantasies
into reality with advice, tips, and tricks from one of Instagram's most
preeminent influencers, Aggie Lal (@aggie; 853k+ followers).
InstaTravel opens with Aggie's own personal story of how she became a
globetrotter. She grew up in Poland without many opportunities to travel
outside of the country. As she got older, her wanderlust led to a gap year in
Sydney and eventually a challenging eight-month sailing trip from Mexico to
Australia. Through her own personal recollections on how travel has impacted
her, Aggie explains that "traveling is an act of self-love as well as an act of
self-discovery because as we ask the world around us to open up and let us in,
we're also opening ourselves up to being changed and transformed by what we
find." And it's through this visually stunning guidebook, with 50 experiences
curated by Aggie, that readers will find opportunities to go on their own
personal journeys.
Create your own travel bucket list browsing the pages of InstaTravel, as Aggie
takes you on a journey to her favorite places in the world. She'll share how
to get from place to place, what to do for fun in each locale, and, of course,
how to re-create her beautiful photos. Aggie can help you make the most of
your budget by suggesting the best places to eat and the best places to stay.
You'll also learn what you need to take with you and how to navigate cultural
differences. InstaTravel provides readers with not just 50 experiences that
you'll want to capture for Instagram, but 50 ways to see and connect with
people and places across the globe.
