By: GoNOMAD Travel What are the criteria for the top ten? It’s a combination of the place, its uniqueness, the point of view of the writer, and especially, how well the photos help to tell the story for the reader. Each is important to giving the reader a true sense of ‘what it’s like there’ and capturing it in words and pictures. A few of the winners also provided top notch advice and information, which is another of GoNOMAD’s missions. View the stories at http://www.gonomad.com/ Here are the top ten best stories for 2013: 1.
