Emily Hart is an inspiration to anyone who thinks they can't travel and work a full-time job. She works as a math teacher for a full-time job, and her hobby is traveling by herself. Emily has currently visited 51 of the 60 national parks in the United States which is quite an impressive feat.

This man is an artist when it comes to photography and capturing the subtle moments of life. He snaps beautiful pictures of everything from dogs, the ocean, to plates on his dinner table. He manages to create art from things we take for granted and views we thought were less than average.

4 5. @mikerizzi
The thing that sets Mike Rizzi apart from any other travel influencer is that he is always smiling for the camera. He doesn't try to pose or portray a stoic image of himself in the majority of his photos, because that isn't who he is as a person.
Mike understands that travel is supposed to bring a smile to your face, and he wants his fans to understand that is what vacation is all about. He has his own YouTube channel as well and his content at a whole is fun for everyone.

Noël Russell runs this page and it showcases her life on the road with her husband and two dogs. She does this part-time when they travel the country in their campervan and it really showcases the beauty of small living and travel.
They know how to make travel look fun and easy at the same time while making memories the two of them will never forget. She is an inspiration for anyone who thinks that life means you can't go on the road and helps travelers understand that there is always a way to make room for your pets.
This page is run by Brock and Chris, who are a couple that travels the world together and manages a YouTube channel at the same time. They show what it means to have fun as a couple on vacation as they experience everything each place has to offer.
