There are many of us who work in travel media and the travel industry here in Vancouver, BC, but there's currently no active Travel Massive chapter.
I'm looking to put together a community event here sometime in the next couple of months, with the goal of getting an active chapter up and running - but wanted to gauge interest and see if there are others who would be interested as well?
By way of introduction - I'm David Brodie. I'm the founder of a company that's building out a network of travel podcasts. We have hosts in several cities around the world and podcasts covering 100s of destinations (Voyascape.com). I previously ran a PR agency with many clients across North America and around the world in the travel and tourism sector and have been a speaker at TravelCon & TBEX and atttended a few Travel Massive events in London, New York and Toronto.
Would to hear from you if your interested in helping organize or even just attend a Vancouver Travel Massive event and also a bit more about you! Please feel free to introduce yourself!

Hi David, I'm definitely interested in attending an event in the Vancouver area. I live in the area and am currently working with my colleague who is based in Papua New Guinea, changing the status quo of tourism on the Kokoda Track there. Also working with someone in Sweden, assisting with the editing of deep travel articles submitted for publishing on his digital platform.
I'm definitely interested as well! I'm a Vancouver-based freelance writer, blogger, and content creator. I'm also writing my first travel guidebook! Happy to help organize events as well.
Hi David, I would be interested and have some industry friends who may also be interested. My office is downtown Van, maybe grab a coffee one of these days?
Cool! How many people have responded? So far we (Toronto) are the only Canadian chapter. If you would like to chat with @kateryna @rain and/or myself, we'd love that.
