La Flânoire encourages other Black travelers to share their own experiences and recommendations. We know as Black travelers we experience things differently, in ways that others may not be able to relate to. While the type of experiences we have may be similar, our perspectives on them can be quite different. This blog is more than just travel reviews and recommendation lists; it’s a space for you to find out what your fellow Black travelers experience on their travels to places and spaces you may be interested in going to. As the self-proclaimed Black Female Flâneur, I offer my views from my travel journeys and collect stories from fellow Black travelers to showcase people’s thoughts and experiences in different places worldwide. Prompts/questions around blog themes will be offered regularly to give more insight into people’s travel experiences.
