So the boys from Matador Travel are in Madrid and have been crashing at my house (although they have a crazy schedule and I have only seen them once so far 🙂
Travel-writing was what got us in contact and we have been in touch since the beginning of the year, but met for the first time a few days ago.
For those who aren’t familiar with this site, it’s a website with some great written content, aiming to bring travelers together and encouraging people not only to travel, but to make a difference when they do. Pretty cool sentiment I think, do check it out when you get a minute.
Ross(L) and Ben(R) – founders of the site, have quit their day-jobs and are working full-time to make Matador happen. They already have over a 1000 users from everywhere, doing all sorts of things, everywhere. The boys are currently traveling around Europe and Asia marketing their website.
It’s been a long time since I met some people with similar ambitions, full of energy and life, working fearlessly with passion – for their passion. Working very hard – but playing hard too; yet down-to-earth and chilled-out gentlemen. It’s very refreshing to come across and get the opportunity to hang with people like this.
