Accessibility Statement

by Jon Miksis

Last Updated: July 16, 2025

Website Accessibility Statement

The Global Viewpoint Travel Blog believes in making our website accessible to those with disabilities. This includes all of our guests, readers, contractors, and vendors.

We are continually working to improve the user experience for everyone.

Each Disability is Unique

We recognize that each person’s disability is unique. What may work well for one person may not work for another. To that end, we have tried to follow as many of the accessibility best practices as possible and to provide flexibility in our design and content.

Reasonable Efforts

We have made efforts to accommodate as many of our website guests and vendors as reasonable, given the size of the company, resources available, and knowledge of our customers. Those efforts are ongoing, as technology and our resources change.

Design Standards

We use design standards that help readers identify, interpret, understand and interact with information presented on our web sites and resources.

We make every reasonable effort necessary to meet online usability and design requirements recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in its Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, as well as requirements under the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010.

Compatibility

This website is designed to be compatible with assistive technologies and the two most recent versions of major browsers, including Chrome, FireFox and Safari. This website and related resources may not display optimally in older browsers, nor in Internet Explorer.

Accessibility Features

When video is provided with voice-overs, closed captioning or text equivalents will be provided on or next to the video.

Third-Party Plugins and Links

This website may use third-party plugins for certain features. These may or may not work for every user with every disability. We do not have control over the accessibility structure of these plugins and are unable to modify them, nor are we responsible for those elements which we do not control.

If you are aware of a plugin that has similar functionality for a plugin that is not accessible, we welcome your suggestions for alternative plugins that are easier for you to use.

Disclaimer

Despite the reasonable efforts that Miksis Media LLC has made regarding accessibility, we realize that some content, features, policies, procedures, and processes may not be currently fully accessible to all. We are working on constantly improving our website to be more accessible to everyone.

About Jon Miksis

Award-winning Travel Writer • Founder of Global Viewpoint • 70+ countries visited • 10 Million+ readers

✈️ Pro Travel Tip:

I use Going.com to find crazy flight deals...($300 roundtrip to Europe kind of crazy).

It’s free, and I honestly check it more than Google Flights. For a limited time only, they are offering 25% off on Premium and Elite to readers of my website, using my special code: JON25)

Since 2017, I’ve traveled 3–6 months a year, sharing detailed guides that have helped over 10 million readers travel smarter, deeper, and better. My work blends firsthand experiences — from U.S. road trips and cold-plunge cabins to Michelin-starred dining and business-class flights — with honest, independent reviews.

I’ve been hired by leading tourism boards in 7 countries across Europe, North America, and South America, as well as international travel brands. My travel tips and insights have been featured in Forbes, HuffPost, Yahoo Travel, and The Boston Globe. I’ve personally reviewed 500+ hotels, retreats, and flight experiences — and I never recommend a place I wouldn’t return to myself.

I also save $5–10K per year on airfare using flight tools and 10+ travel credit cards, and I’ve invested over $100K into personal development through transformational retreats and coaching since 2021.

When I’m not road-tripping across the Northeast or writing guides for Global Viewpoint, you’ll find me cold plunging in local lakes, sipping espresso in quiet cafes in Vienna, or chasing fall foliage across New England. I split my time between exploring the world and soaking up life in Boston, my lifelong home base. Some of my favorite places I keep going back to? Switzerland, Spain, Iceland, Italy, Greece, the Faroe Islands, Guatemala, California, Montana, Vermont, and coastal Maine in autumn.

For 8 years, I’ve been a travel writer, content creator, and adventure junkie who’s visited 69 countries and 30 national parks (and counting). I travel for 3–6 months per year and my home base is Boston, MA!

I specialize in curated travel itineraries, epic bucket-list experiences, and off-the-beaten-path adventures...from chasing waterfalls in Iceland to hiking the Alps, trekking Patagonia, and road-tripping across New England. I’ve been featured in major publications including Forbes, HuffPost, Yahoo Travel, The Boston Globe, and more.

Together with my team, we provide expert reviews and curated guides on hotels, restaurants, airlines, retreats, and more.

Over the past 8+ years, I’ve helped over 10 million readers plan smarter, more meaningful trips through my site. I focus on places that spark awe...whether it’s a remote alpine lake, a hidden glamping dome, or a culturally immersive retreat.
