title = "Constructing and shaping tourist experiences via travel blog engagement",
abstract = "This chapter aims to develop a holistic conceptual understanding of how tourism experiences are constructed, contextualized and packaged in the context of travel blogs. Tourist experiences are highlighted as an on-going process, continuously changing and altering during pre-, on-site-, and post-visit of tourist experiences. This chapter also examines the relationships between travel blog users' motivation and engagement and tourist experience construction. As a result, a new dimension to the previous tourist experiences is offered.",
