The One Where We Go “On Airplane Mode” With LGBT Travel Bloggers Kirstie & Christine

Ep. 87

Winners of the Gay Travel Awards in 2020, Christine and Kirstie of @OnAirplaneMode__ are here to share with us how they got started, and how a tripod changed their lives. What first began their passion for photography in 2019 with an iPhone capturing pictures of adventures all throughout SouthEast Asia, grew to more with creative photos and videos. Then, they noticed more people (especially within the LGBTQ+ community) began to reach out to them asking for advice on how to travel. So they began and now continue helping people explore their sense of adventure, without fear. But what are travel bloggers doing now without travel? Come hear how their story and how they’re keeping the adventure alive.
