Although they may sound like incomprehensible characters from a Matrix sequel, the Nomad and the Editor are actually Matt from Nomadic Matt’s Travel Site and Dylan @travelingEditor. And this casual tweet from Matt on Friday had by Saturday turned into a few beers and travel chat between Matt, our very own Cam and STA Explorer Dylan.

This social media in action serving all took place in Victoria Station, (The Shakespeare to be absolutely precise) and came about because Matt was left with time to kill between returning from Vienna and then flying to Thailand. The discussion was a mix of travel and social media, and how the two mix. While in Thailand, Matt is actually hooking up with a friend he made through Twitter.

One particular topic covered was the types of food that they’d all digested while travelling. Cam declared croc meat was way too fishy for her delicate palette and Dylan and Matt were both fond of a bit of kangaroo when cooked rare. Matt also added that fried maggots tasted like French fries. Croc and kangaroo I can do… maggots maybe not.

The evening ended with a bottle of Speights, beer brewed in New Zealand, something that Dylan was happy about as he’d spotted it earlier. To go with the final shared beverage, plans were made by all to meet again in both New Zealand and Greece if possible. Couple this with the STA Explorers in Aus, travelbuzz is racking up destinations for our world tour…
