About Travel Addicts
Travel Addicts is a personal travel blog run by Lance and Laura Longwell. They started the site in 2008 while working full time and have turned it into Laura's full-time work; the pair write about their trips from the United States, Europe and beyond. The site houses more than 500 posts accumulated over nearly two decades and reaches over two million readers a year. Their articles focus on practical, time-conscious itineraries, local food and memorable experiences. Posts rely heavily on the authors' own photography and photo-rich, first-person trip narratives to illustrate destinations and activities.
What makes Travel Addicts itself is the couple's knack for squeezing big, satisfying trips into limited vacation time. Their writing reads like a well-traveled friend guiding you by the hand - personal, detailed and refreshingly pragmatic. The Gozo day-trip guide shows their method: clear, chronological sightseeing suggestions, local history notes, and exact timing tips that help you plan a single-day visit. They also shine with seasonal deep dives - expect thorough Christmas market roundups and U.S. weekend itineraries. The site is active, publishing a couple of new guides most months, and the posts are photo-forward and easy to follow.
