Abstract
This study aims at exploring how women travelers shift the way they construct identities in the blogs during the pandemic COVID-19. As a meaningful activity for the travelers, travel blogging is a form of expression to share travel experiences, personal thoughts, travel tips and reviews, which represents the identities of the traveler blogger. Travelers, in this pandemic time, are experiencing changing situation that asks for adaptation in their life. The changing paradigm is undoubtedly presented in the content of their blogs. Studying how the language of the blogs is used to construct the shifting identity is of interesting topics to discuss within the COVID-19 context. Thus, this study is intended to explore the identity shifts of traveler bloggers in their blogs. Data are collected from three blogs of women travelers which are analyzed by using discourse analysis method. The shifts are indicated in the way travelers construct and negotiate their identities in their blogs dealing with the pandemic COVID-19. Future research is directed to compare the potential shifts occurring in the blogs of different gender regarding the COVID-19 context.
