We’ve always wanted to travel the world. In 2013, a year before we started travelling full-time, we started the Travels of BBQboy and Spanky. Today we average about 100,000 page views per month, the majority of our readers from the US, UK, and Canada. Our target audience are independent travellers, full-time travellers and expats (or retirees aspiring to be expats).
We also have a 2nd blog, Mapping Spain, which focuses only on Spain. We started this in 2020 and average 80,000 page views per month.

Advertising
We do sponsored posts and links. Here are a few of the companies we’ve partnered with.
Guest posts, links, etc
Guest posts. I’m sorry, we don’t accept guest posts at this time.
HOWEVER – We do accept contributions to the Destination Guide section if you are an expert on a specific destination. We ask that all guides be comprehensive, informative, and non-promotional. In return, we’ll give you a link (or links) back to your blog or website. Note: if your website is a commercial website, we regard submissions as advertising and charge a (reduced) fee.
Free Links. We get tons of people writing us everyday asking if we can include a free link to their vlog or blog. I’m sorry, we just can’t accommodate these requests.

Please personalize emails. I get lots of emails including a lot of spam. I don’t like “Hey you” type emails or form letters – If you don’t personalize emails chances are you won’t hear back from me.

Good to meet you and your mom this week. I had no idea! So I am interested in a possible ad..

Hi Victoria! Loved your hotel. We usually stay in Airbnb apartments but there were a lack in Patzcuaro…and we’re glad because your hotel was just the greatest, really enjoyed ourselves and it was a treat.
I’ll contact you directly on advertising 🙂
