New Series – The Most Important Word in the World

by Matt 5 Comments

Elephant park, Indonesia
New Friends in Indonesia

 

I’m so excited for this series to start.

It all began with a post I wrote a few weeks back about a time when I said “hello” to strangers in Indonesia and ended up having a great adventure with them. Lots of people said that they loved that post and I started to think of all the times I’ve had adventures from simply greeting other travelers. I wanted to inspire people to open themselves up to meeting new people and forming new relationships and potential adventures. Then I thought, how cool would it be to gather stories from other bloggers and travelers who have experienced this as well.

I wanted to hear all the amazing stories that people have from when they stepped out of the box and met some new friends.

I reached out to 7 awesome people to get the ball rolling. Each of them enthusiastically agreed to participate and thought it was a great idea.

The series was born. It starts this friday!

Each blogger will post their story on their blog at certain times over the next week or two. Each story will be about a time when they said “hello” to a stranger which then turned into an awesome adventure or a great friendship.

If you want to read these inspiring stories, just follow along by watching the “series page” or following me on twitter. Each time someone posts their story, I will link to it on the series page and tweet it over twitter. You can also like A World of Inspiration on Facebook and watch the wall, or subscribe to A World of Inspiration so you can stay updated all the time.

The following bloggers are part of this series:

Matt Koenig of 1 Year Sabbatical

Rob Nights of Beyond Norms

Amy Scott of Nomadtopia

Niall Doherty of Disrupting the Rabblement

Robyn James of The Dropout Diaries

and of course, yours truly.

I can’t wait to read these great stories. Thanks to everyone involved and I hope you all feel the inspiration from the amazing stories we’re sure to read.
