What could bring together wordy people from around the world? Impossible to organize really, you’d think. I mean some of us are picking up shells on remote islands, some squatting in tents, others hidden from sight in the mazes of the world’s great cities. How could you ferret us out? And then, once you’d located us, how could you set up a conversation that spans the globe, about the globe?
Short answer: Lonely Planet; and the long, infinite tendrils of the internet.
The party only really got going a couple of weeks back. We’d been chatting sporadically across the vast distances that separate us when someone had a mindblowing epiphany: We’re all one – in a strange, transcendent way. We’re all connected and, as one, we’d make a bigger impact then we could as our own little traveling selves with our backpacks and laptops, the whole being more than the sum of its parts. We are an entity!
After that the conversation blew wide open. The subject: world travel in all its guises, from hundreds of unique perspectives. Traveling the world has taken us to far flung places, the distant corners of the world. Lonely Planet may not have planned it but they gave us a way to bring all those places and all those disparate experiences together HERE.The party continues. If you like the idea of joining us, come on over. Bring your own bottle!
