Social Travellers

What is travelling to you? Are you just a weekend traveller, a short fling or a romantic escape? or travelling is a life style to you? If you think you born to travel, meet new people, if you want to see most of the world.. no matter how many sleepless nights or nights without a shelter.. then you are a traveller. but if you are doing it with maps and city magazines than you are an old fashioned traveller. Now the social travelling is on the front burner.

So what is this "Social Travelling"? Maybe you've heard it before but have no idea. As the internet grows faster than ever, the social media became very popular. So the travellers start to use this media aswell. How can you use that media? Well, you can find a place to stay, you can find people to show you around or take a cup of coffee or a drink with you and much more...

See a social traveller link.. He is a Belgian social traveller who is challanging himself. He says that "Basically I want my friends and followers to CHALLENGE me, to tell me WHAT to do, WHERE to go, WHO to meet and WHERE to sleep."

See a social traveller website where you can find other people who can host you as a guest. "Couch Surfing"
