This post isn’t as creepy as the title might suggest. When you’re planning a vacation and choosing cities and areas to visit, all travel ads make everywhere look amazing, right? Have you ever wished you knew someone who lived where you plan to go so you can get an inside scoop about the best places to go, stay, and eat?
As I said in the title, if you live somewhere, I want your help. If you may remember, in May of this year I started a travel blog called Philliver’s Travels. I travel more than most but not as much as some, so my problem in writing a travel blog is that I haven’t been everywhere yet. That’s where you come in, if you want to. And hopefully it results in me writing better posts and you gaining a few more followers for your blog.
About a week ago I started a series I call 50/50. My goal is to write a post about all 50 of the states in the United States in 50 days. (Don’t check out yet if you’re from another country because after I finish the States I’d like to get some expert advice on traveling to so many countries that I haven’t been to yet.) I’m looking for volunteers from any state in the United States to just answer a few questions by email to help give my readers some of that insider advice we all want. OR, if you want to write an entire post about your home state, you’re welcome to take over Philliver’s Travels for a day!
What’s in it for you? In the post that you contribute to, or completely write, I or you can plug your blog with a link and summary about it, so hopefully we all get more followers and online friends, and better information for when we travel. Also, if you could follow Philliver’s Travels that would be great because the 8 views a day are really bumming me out.
Have a great Sunday, and safe travels! ~Phil
Hey Phil, this is Shannon from Must Hike Must Eat. If you need Washington State, I will gladly fill out your questionnaire and and offer plenty of quirky places to visit. 🙂
Hey Shannon! That would be great! I’ve never been to Washington State. I’d love your input and quirky places. Especially quirky places!
I’ll email you later today
Hi Shannon, would you like to do a full guest post, or just answer 5 questions about your state?
I can probably do either, just depends on when you would like it by.
That’s up to you. I have no deadlines. Either one is great!
This sounds like such a grand idea. I have no idea what each state ‘is all about’ – I’ll be sure to read!
Thanks Syd! Maybe you can be my London insider when I move on to other countries after I finish the states
One hundred percent! Love the idea Phil!
Fantastic! When I get to Great Britain I’ll shoot you a message.
Phil, I was a tour guide in DC, and can offer free eCopies of my book, Stayed on Freedom’s Call, as useful (chapter 6) to take with them in seeing parts of DC that most tour guides don’s show.

Ok, great! When I get to my D.C. review I’ll let you know
Ok: The book is always freely avail on The Archive, and also linked as a downloadable pdf here on WP from any of my posts.
Best,
Shira
