About Us

World news does not end when the hype does. Bloggers without Borders is a platform where people can continually find background news. When a news item has long been forgotten, our bloggers tell you about the aftermath of a certain event. Throughout 2012 the founders will travel the world to create a network of Bloggers.

The board

The board consists of Sanne van Oosten en Davey Meelker. All of 2012 the board will be devoted to creating a solid community of Bloggers without Borders. The board is not the core of this community; the organisation is made by the Bloggers around the world who will add to creating a deeper base of understanding among cultures around the world.
