I’m the creator and head administrator for over 40 travel groups via Facebook. Most begin with ‘Backpacking’ and ‘Travel’ such as groups for Backpacking Central America or Travel Melbourne.[edsanimate_start entry_animation_type= “fadeIn” entry_delay= “2” entry_duration= “0.5” entry_timing= “linear” exit_animation_type= “” exit_delay= “” exit_duration= “” exit_timing= “” animation_repeat= “1” keep= “yes” animate_on= “load” scroll_offset= “” custom_css_class= “”][edsanimate_end]

Back in 2011 I was networking online with some people through the chat forums via Lonely Planet. Out of the all the  kind people I kept in touch with and added to Facebook one was a girl from Norway called Brit. We discussed about going to South East Asia for a short time and created the original, that was called Southeast Asia 2012!. The whole creation of the groups began from there.

It is now named: South-East Asia Backpacking

Despite being over 9k members full now, it had a heart felt bunch of backpackers providing regular and updated information.  This encouraged me to solely create more groups, some out of request, some of my own benefit, some for fun.

South America soon came, as did Australia, Europe and another one for South East Asia.

These groups are for people to comment, help, tip, meet up and question things about that particular region or country. The groups are monitored and any spam or unrelated content is deleted when pending. I have more and more administrators working for me and helping me manage this. I assure you, it’s a daily task and my phone alone has to be charged several times a day just to add members to the groups.

Please use them responsibly as they will definitely
be help for you on the road. We all take guidebooks but if you are online, you may get a better, quicker, more personal answer on something. If you are alone and want to meet up with someone, this is perfect for that.

If you are a travel agency, company or publication and are wanting to reach out to the members of one of these groups, we do allow the occasional marketing campaign, as long as its relevant to the members. This will be ultimately agreed with myself. If you want to discuss, please go to the ‘Work with me’ page to make contact.
