TWiT Photo 47: Travel Blogger Gary Arndt of Everything Everywhere

Ever wish that you can just take off and go on a round-the-world tour? That’s what Gary Arndt did in March 2007, and he’s been to 114 countries and territories, and still counting. The multi-award-winning blogger showcases his photography and journey on his travel blog, Everything Everywhere. Time magazine named his blog one of the top 25 blogs in the world. Taking a break from swimming with whale sharks in Australia and spelunking in Borneo, Gary joins us in the studio and shares stories about playing photojournalist in the midst of a political protest in Bangkok, how looking like a professional photographer can get you places, and tips on how to pursue your wanderlust and the most efficient ways to do travel photography.

Here are Gary’s top tips:

1. Know where you are. Light for the location.

2. Bigger memory is better than more in terms of storage.

3. Backup! Backup! Backup!
