I sometimes feel like I’m an expert at taking pictures of myself. Doing what I do for a living and trying to document my travels all over the world means I’ve gotten pretty good at taking my own picture – it’s like I have a “Go-Go-Gadget” arm. Well, after traveling all around the world and watching people take pictures of themselves the same way I do, (arm extended, hoping for the best!) I can’t believe I didn’t think of the new Quickpod myself. It’s ingenious! The Quickpod
has an 18-inch extendable arm. This distance makes it seem
as if someone else is taking the picture for you. It’s easy to use, too. Just attach the camera like you would to a tripod (the Quickpod actually doubles as a tripod), set the self-timer and you’re good to go. The mini mirror helps you position it just right so you’ll no longer have to awkwardly ask passersby. Cost $24.95.

They can also share their Aussie travel stories and connect with like-minded travelers. On top of that … I’m the featured writer for July and August! Good on ya, mate!
