You asked - we made it :-) Introducing the NomadMania CHAT. Now you can send messages to other nomads directly in our app (iOS and Android).

Starting a conversation is easy – you can do it from another traveller’s profile or by searching for their name in the messages section.

We may also ask for your permission to enable notifications – this will allow you to be notified immediately when someone sends you a message. You can always mute or block anyone you don’t want to chat with.

Read all the details about this in our App Updates Log post.

Central African Republic Tour

We are very pleased to announce a group tour to Central African Republic, Bangui in association with our reliable local fixer. 

CAR is one of the harder countries in Africa to visit, and one of the best ones to do as part of a group, to share the experience.

Our trip will be starting on March 14, 2025 and we can offer 3 different versions of the trip depending on your needs – a 3, 5 or 7 night option.

Series Suggestions Reopened

We have been working very hard to process all your suggestions for the Series, which we are very thankful for. There is a down side to this though: the mass participation in this has led to a big imbalance in the Series offering - with some countries being massively overrepresented and others getting very few ideas for new entries.

We are therefore now re-opening our Series suggestions, however we will not be accepting any entries for countries in Europe or North America (US and Canada); these will automatically be filed and not considered. 

Conversely, we especially welcome suggestions for Asian and African countries, and we will also consider suggestions for Central and South America, as well as Oceania.

We will continue this limitation until we feel that the imbalance has been restored, and eventually may open suggestions for specific countries as we deem necessary. Meanwhile, we always welcome corrections for any region. Thank you once again for being actively involved in our Series.

New Verified Members

Congrats to our recently verified UN Masters: 

• Rasha Yousif from Bahrain
• Newton Losi from Brazil

Verification is our way of ensuring that travellers’ claims of their regions and countries visited are true. It is obligatory for some travellers and voluntary to the rest as a Certification.

Check out our Certificates. There's definitely something for you :-)
