The Nashville Guide by Abby Demmer
If you ask any enthusiastic traveler how they want to experience their destination, most will answer “as a local.” The Nashville Guide is the inaugural offering in a new series of travel guides built by a community and fueled by Instagram. Featuring local Nashville shops, restaurants, bars, food trucks, tours, breweries, parks, entertainment, etc, The Nashville Guide is characterized by a community collaboration that was hatched on the Instagram account @TheNashvilleGuide. Ten local contributor writers present short, personal but relevant descriptions about local businesses that give readers (and visitors) a local perspective into what Nashville has to offer. Alongside ecery description are pictures from the contributor photographers of The Nashville Guide. These travel guides are as if the folks you’re planning to visit sent along a itinerary for you. The Nashville Guide’s design is simple and inviting with a cool color pallet to reflect it’s laid back approach to travel. Its small narrow trim size is ideal for pockets, backpacks, and on-line viewing. And, with updates happening annually, it’s a travel guide that will be collected.
