What’s a trip these days without a few tech toys to share it with the world?

That’s what BigTripBlog.com is all about. I recently came across this great beginner’s guide to “flashpacking” via Travelistic, put together by current nomads Kevin Allgood and Valerie Marshall.

They offer a brief look at the tools of the trade to film, record, and share their journey on the road. Have a watch and enjoy!
