These days, you can have a platform for just about anything. If you’re a chef, you can promote your cooking skills on social media. If you love traveling, you can share your journeys around the world with your fans. If you’re someone who loves doing both—there’s an audience for that too. That seems to be exactly what “The Hungry Tourist” is doing: traveling around the world and documenting the various culinary delights that he finds along the way.
With over 370,000 followers on Instagram, clearly, this person is doing something right. It’s not easy to create a following for oneself. There needs to be a foundation of authenticity, passion, and no small dose of knowledge in the field in order for people to take you seriously. Luckily, it seems as though these are all qualities that the Hungry Tourist possesses in spades.
Not only does he have a great love for traveling and food, but this blogger is a master at engaging his audience. He knows the importance of getting people involved and inviting them to answer questions. Take this photo below, for example. He posted a picture of an exotic-looking meat and invited his followers to guess where he is.
It’s this creative mindset that reflects his talent as an entrepreneur and it may just be the reason that he’s as popular as he is today.
