Welcome
to the Scoop section of WiseNomad.com, a collaborative community of
backpackers and world travelers. Travelers just like you can submit
stories and opinion pieces, and the community votes on what content
gets posted. Anyone interested in backpacking travel can join. Think
of it as open source content for backpackers, with a democratic twist.
WiseNomad.com
is a community of people with a passion for travel and adventure. This
site is designed as a well of information where backpackers can learn
from one another, and help one another. Anyone can contribute the inside
scoop on the places they’ve been, and anyone can research the
places they’re going. And backpackers tend to give as well as
take from the well because they possess a unique perspective on humanity.
They’ve ventured beyond their known borders, beyond their familiar
surroundings, beyond life's conventional path, and they’ve been
welcomed by strangers with unexpected generosity, and they’ve
experienced life beyond their imagination. They’ve been given
a gift, and so they pass it on.
This
site has an open submission queue. You need not even register to submit
stories and opinion pieces. Submit stories about pretty much anything
related to backpacking travel: travel tips, off-the-beaten-path destination
info, hostel recommendations, nightlife recommendations, suggested itineraries,
recommended adventure activities, commentary on food or drink, or the
overall backpacker scene somewhere, trip planning tips, a recap of an
adventure, romantic interludes, political commentaries, you name it.
And, you can always join the community if you
like. It’s just two fields and a submission button… takes
about 15 seconds.
Garbage
is not tolerated. Community members can and will vote you post into
oblivion if they’re rubbish, or alternatively vote them to heralded
front-page status if they’re noteworthy and/or thought provoking.
Enough
said. Get to it, and tell your travel buddies to come visit.
