Welcome to the world of #FoodTravelChat, a weekly, online chat that focuses on food and travel around the world. It’s a way to connect, learn, socialize, and have a conversation with like-minded culinary travel folks.
What is #FoodTravelChat?
It’s an online conversation on social media for people who love food and travel, especially the two together! It was started around nine years ago by the team behind FoodTravelist.com but the reins were handed over to RealFoodTraveler.com in 2022. #FoodTravelChat has morphed a bit in that time, to enable more people, regardless of where they are in the world and what time zone they are in, to participate at their convenience.
When, Where and How?
As of the start of 2024, #FoodTravelChat is changing format to be easier to interact with and available on more social media platforms.
When:
Every Wednesday, a graphic with three themed food- and travel-related questions will be posted by 9am ET. Reply throughout the day and evening – or any day that works for you.
Where:
Twitter, pinned to the top of the @foodtravelchat and @realfoodtravel Twitter pages.
Facebook, at @realfoodtraveler.
Instagram, at @real_food_traveler.
Threads, at @real_food_traveler.
How:
Each Wednesday, by 9am ET, a graphic will be posted at the top of the profiles listed above. It will contain three questions relating to food and travel, with a different theme each week. We’ll always share the three questions in advance in this article (see below) so you have a preview of what we’ll ask.
On Twitter, you can reply in the Comments below the graphic OR, choose the “repost” icon and choose “quote” to respond with your own photos (we love to see your food and travels!). Important: BE SURE to include “#FoodTravelChat” in your Retweet-Quote to enable us to see your response.
On Facebook, Instagram and Threads, reply in the comments section. If you “share” the post, include “#FoodTravelChat” as above.
