CityTripping travel linky
So much world. So much inspiration. So where to start? For years, I ran the CityTripping linky with Wandermum, collecting together the best city travel posts from bloggers around the world. While the linky has finished now, I’ve listed some current blog link-ups for travel bloggers along with some highlights of the years we ran our own.
Thanks too to our temporary linky hosts including Suitcases & Sandcastles, My Travel Monkey and Wandermust Family
Firstly, a few highlights from around the world, including some of our favourite posts… for more city travel inspiration, check out my post here too for the top city breaks with kids as well as tips on cutting the costs of a city break.
