About Destination The World
Destination The World is a personal travel blog run by Matthias and Kent, a German and a Norwegian writing from Germany. They write about independent, often off-the-beaten-track trips and practical planning tips drawn from their own travels, and say they have visited more than 60 countries. The site hosts more than 80 posts since 2021, including long destination guides and trip narratives. Posts are richly illustrated - the newest Lake Eibsee guide alone includes 14 photos - and the blog aims to inspire readers with practical advice for day trips, regional highlights and longer journeys.
Reading Destination The World feels like swapping trip notes with two well-travelled friends who enjoy long, practical guides. The writing is warm and conversational, with playful lines such as "There’s no place like Lake Eibsee. We’re not even kidding," and the posts do the work: the Lake Eibsee guide runs to about 2,700 words and is packed with photos and step-by-step tips. Their standout pieces are detailed regional guides and offbeat day-trip ideas - think Bavarian lakes, Trans-Siberian planning and Southeast Asian temple towns. New material appears at a steady, relaxed pace, so it is a good site to browse when planning a specific trip.
