- "“If I Was Going to Die I Should at Least Be Having Fun”: Travel Blogs, Meaning and Tourist Experience." Annals of Tourism Research 55 (2015): 1-14. (ScienceDirect)) Travel blogs are an under-utilised resource for researchers of tourism experiences. They can provide rich insights on how tourists express the transformational effects of their experiences for the self.
