🚐 Where Have All the Social Travellers Gone?
G’day everyone! 👋
One thing Ian and I have noticed while travelling around this incredible country is that people don’t seem to mingle like they used to.
Years ago you’d wander over to your neighbours, pull up a camp chair, have a yarn over a drink, swap travel tips and probably end up laughing half the night away.
These days it’s almost like everyone’s tucked away behind closed doors.
So we thought… bu**er that! 😄
Why not create a group that brings back the social side of travelling?
That’s how Social Nomads Australia was born.
We’re not about influencers.
We’re not about selling stuff.
We’re just a bunch of everyday travellers who love meeting new people and making the most of this amazing lifestyle.
🍻 Happy hour with new mates
🌅 Sunset drinks
🎵 Live music
🚐 Festivals and road trips
☕ Coffee catch-ups
🎲 Card games
🍽️ Pub lunches
😂 Plenty of laughs along the way
We’ve also been burning the midnight oil putting together something we’re really excited about…
📖 The Social Nomads Travel Companion
It’s going to be a FREE downloadable guide packed with festivals, country music, markets, shows and events right around Australia, making it easier to find things to do wherever you pull up.
The Queensland Edition is the first one off the production line and it’s looking pretty bloody good! 😁
We don’t travel with dogs ourselves anymore, but we’re huge dog lovers, so your furry travel mates are always welcome in the group too. 🐶❤️
If you’re looking for more than just somewhere to park your van…
If you’d like to meet genuine people…
Or if you’d simply love someone to share a sunset drink with…
Come and join us.
Just follow the steps in the picture below.
Pull up a chair…
Introduce yourself…
You never know who you’ll meet.
See you around the campfire! 🔥🍷🚐
