Travel blog tore around Thailand (5-4)
I believe the answer is:
globe-trot
'travel' is the definition.
(I know that globe-trot is a more specific form of the action the travel)
'blog tore around thailand' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates anagramming the letters.
'thailand' becomes 'T' (abbreviation on car registration plates).
'blog'+'tore'='blogtore'
'blogtore' anagrammed gives 'globetro'.
'globetro'+'t'='GLOBE-TROT'
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
