Travel

I enjoy leisure travel.  As I mentioned previously here, 

I want not only to see the sites when I travel, but also smell the diesel fumes, taste authentic street food, and hear the "flavor" of local dialects.  But more than that I want to feel and viscerally experience the attitudes, values, opinions, and sensibilities of the locals, to "get into their heads."  I love to experience the culture, not just observe it.

So when I came across this (long) gem of travel tips from the founder of Wired magazine, I read it with much interest.  Kevin Kelly breaks travel down into "rest and relaxation" (R&R), engagement and experience (E&E), and business travel.  He gives many small bits of advice for each type of travel with wisdom gained from his own hard-won "quantity time" traveling and thoughtful introspections.  If you enjoy traveling, check out the article.
