Gogobot

Ok I will admit I love Gogobot and their swag. Seriously, this is one very fun community and if you like crazy off the beaten path information on some really odd distant and peculiar places, someone on GGB has already been there and done that…
Maybe it was even you. I enjoy a lot of what they have to offer. I don’t know of any other travel sites that are as helpful when planning or finding out information on key places that I want to travel to. The members are always open to talking and giving advice from their own travels. They also have a hotel interface, but I cant say much about it as I have never used it.
However like many other sites, GGB has user meet ups. I find these especially enlightening as often you can meet those from outside of your area and thus get a whole different perspective on things. It also allows you to find those that are into some crazy adventures via hiking, biking, running, or whatever. They have different groups that you can join that more closely resemble what you are seeking to find called tribes… and while they don’t have a tribe called quest, we are all questing for something… in my case it was to regain my wanderlust which had devolved into nothing. At this point it is now a fiery burning deep inside my soul begging for every opportunity to get out and go somewhere new or old and discover that which I haven’t discovered already!
It is definitely worth checking out. The HQ for GGB is filled with friendly people who enjoy discussing all kinds of things and constructive ideas are well received. You may even learn about what goes on in ways you never could have imagined. These are definitely some fun and interesting folks who it is fun to interact with… and the staff is a great bunch to have lunch with as well.
I am definitely looking forward to my next trek that will let me pop in and chill with these guys. Overall though, this is a crowd that is a lot of fun and special in what they do. If you have a case of wanderlust like I do, this is definitely a place that you want to check out. I know I absolutely love it…
