There was much excitement in the TTW team as Threads launched last month and Steph and I both joined eagerly. The problem I’ve found, though, is that my Instagram and Twitter worlds were very different: on Twitter I follow mainly journalists, editors and travel people, while Instagram is for dogs. This means I’ve a strange feed going down in my Threads app as I try to find my travel people among an algorithm that thinks all I care about is dogs (I mean, I do love dogs but…).
So, with that in mind, I’d love for you to drop your Threads handle or profile below so we can follow. I’m on @lottiegross and Steph is @worldlyadventurer. See you on Threads!
Thank you for the excellent content. I can`t beileve it took me this long to discover your newsletter. I am Burcu - originally from Istanbul, Turkey but based in Tokyo, Japan
Will follow everyone back! I'm @passportandpixels on Threads and Instagram and @passportandpix on Twitter (for those of you who are still grimly clinging on...)
I jumped on Threads (@BaurJoe) while visiting family in the US. Unfortunately, Threads isn't available in Germany yet, so the app doesn't really work for me at the moment. Hopefully soon!
I'm @pollyallen. Looking forward to following you all on Threads! Like Lottie, I've not got many travel people on Instagram, so it's skewed my 'following' list.
Thanks Lottie and Steph - I shall follow you both now. I'm thatcargeek on Threads (the same on Twitter as well, in case anyone would like to read inane ramblings about steam trains). I haven't posted anything on the upstart though, because like you, whenever I log in the algorithm suggests posts by people that I don't follow.
At the moment I’m trying to build a following of subscribers on substack where I plan to focus on my other work - ie my novel Tunnel of Mirrors, cinema, but also travel pieces. If you are there, I’m The Chelsea Writer
@roguecopy and @essentiallyrogue ... both travel content...not sure which ones will stick though. Copy is all about travel copywriting and Essentially is more lifestyle/travel/me
Parallel Lives didn't get off the ground, but we created two really good episodes. We did a full 'season' of This Place This Story - and hope to do a second. But finding an audience was soooo hard. :(
Are you on Threads? We'd love to connect
Thank you for this – I'm also keen to rebuild my Twitter following list on Threads! I'm @hg_richardson / www.threads.net/@hg_richardson
