2 Million Pinterest Followers with a Bucket List

You often hear of people having a bucket list, that list of things they want to see or do before, well, they “kick the bucket”.

But I never imagined we’d come into contact with so many travellers with a bucket list until we recently passed the 2 Million Followers milestone on our pinterest account.

We of course have our own bucket list, and it constantly grows, particularly now that we spend so much time on Pinterest getting inspired by so many photos. Considering that travel is very visual, I love the fact that Pinterest allows you to look at so many travel photos effortlessly and sort them into your own categories, your own boards. 

Ever since we started serious world travel 12 years ago we’ve always had vision boards “pinned” on a wall in our home for inspiration. Now, we just use Pinterest!

To celebrate our account going viral I’ve included below 14 photos of places around the world that people have shared on Pinterest that I have now added to our growing Bucket List, places that you might also dream of visiting.

And each week I will be randomly selecting 10 amazing photos from our Pinterest account to put in a blog post to share with you and to inspire us all to travel more.

If you haven’t yet followed our Pinterest boards, you can join us here.

Enjoy…

    Congratulations guys!! Well deserved! :)

    My god that Molokai, Hawaii photo is incredible! The thing with spending so much time on Pinterest and other visual websites is that you begin to recognize places you have never even been to…the world becomes smaller…but every now and then you are surprised to find a picture that blows you away and makes you realize there is still so much beauty to explore! :D
