Our latest STA Explorer is ready to grace our hallowed pages and is, by his own account, getting somewhat excited due to an overload of anticipation.

“Remember that last time when you’re looking forward to a ‘big day’? When something so exciting and unfamiliar is coming up your already lackluster everyday life seems to slow down ten-fold? Remember that feeling?
That’s what I’m getting now, more so than ever.”

Dylan will be going by the Explorer name of Ramblin’ Rucksack Man due to his tendency to spend too much time carrying about said shoulder slung bag and his first port of call for him will be Nadi in Fiji. Setting off in just under a fortnight from Auckland, Dylan has decided to take a couple of day trips around the city to get him into the travelling mindset. Something we’ll look forward to hearing about.

You can keep tabs on Dylan’s wandering at his site Dylan Goes Walkabout – The Tales and by following him on Twitter. Or, if this has got you all a fluster with a desire to travel, why not consider becoming one of our STA Explorers just like Dylan?
