about

We’re all familiar with the traditional travel interview – we’ve read it in a lengthy article or in quick one word answers. It’s typically a Q&A based on advice, experience and knowledge.

awanderluster wants to know the character behind the traveler.

At heart, travelers are like all social groups – we have an innate curiosity about the lives of others. We like to learn more about what’s beneath the first impression, as if we could read a diary or look through a photo album of life. People want to know not only where you’ve lived, but how you live. About your favourite tshirt, if you prefer whiskey or wine, or the best place in your hometown to be at 3am.

Modeled on the intrigue of successful projects like the Sartorialist for fashion and The Selby for interior design, awanderluster aims to bring the traveler into the spotlight. Travel bloggers, culinary adventurists, writers, the culturally inquisitive and the can’t-sit-stills will be featured in series alongside each other in snapshots of personal taste and habit.

We love new news and thrive on design and style though, so expect photos, destinations reviews, and articles on anything remotely travel related to show up here too. Think of us as a travel magablog.

About The Editor

Trained for advertising and design, experienced in marketing, and a recent career jumper, Kerri manages the awanderluster site and related feeds.

After spending five years in marketing for the world’s largest coffee chain, Kerri found her passion in the adventure travel world after exploring India. A childhood in Europe and travel throughout Canada, the US and Caribbean hadn’t exactly hit the switch before experiencing the beauty and intricacies of India and the pleasure in exploring cultures so different from home. Kerri has had the pleasure of exploring Central America and Australia since then, with a firm aim of the Middle East and Africa on her list next.

awanderluster was born as a brand to win a position as one of Gap Adventures ‘World’s Coolest Travel Interns’. Leveraging Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr, Kerri was able to create a fundraising campaign for Planeterra, Gap’s charitable arm dedicated to sustainable community development around the world, by soliciting travel advice, dream itineraries, and past travels to a awanderluster site. The call-out raised over $100 for Planeterra and assisted in Kerri securing one of the ‘World’s Coolest Travel Intern’ positions, where she currently works.
