On this page I aim to put all the media appearances related to the Don’t Stop Living travel blog down the years. I have appeared on numerous media outlets including the BBC, Wanderlust and the Belfast Telegraph. I haven’t included my personal media appearances on here to make things a bit more concise and relevant to Don’t Stop Living. My personal media appearances are on my own business site. But still, not all of them.

Although most of this is recent and in the form of online posts and interviews, I used to work in PR and had an abundance of media appearances in the past with other projects.

The ones related to travel and those incorporating my nomadic nature I have listed on here:

Online Media Appearances – Jonny Blair of Don’t Stop Living
I’m putting my online appearances first on here as they are more recent, more frequent and where it’s at these days. I’m always available for interview for other sites and I regularly contribute articles for other websites, here’s the best of them…if you want to interview me for your site or want to feature me, then just get in touch through my contacts or advertising pages.
