What a year and one half we have had in all industries. Travel has been no exception. But, with the opening of 2010, there is a sense that deep in the soul, one must get out. I call this the restless travel heart syndrome.
We have spoken about this before, but we humans must have the freedom to move about. We are a mobile society, and not only with the workplace, but the need to travel, to experience, to learn, to grow.
Value is important to the traveler today, more than ever. With careful planning, the experience you want is out there.
As i write, I am inAuckland New Zealand, preparing to embark on a Melanesian Expedition tomorrow with an Australian company, Orion Expeditions.www.orionexpeditions.com .
We will sail out of the harbor in Auckland and head in a northerly direction to the Islands. Most notable among them are the Soloman Islands, much in play during the Second World War as well as Asmany others. We will disembark in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea, some 18 days from now.
Please follow me along the way. I hope to have some photos, videos and a daily blog about the experience. As the new word in travel is 'experiential' or 'culturious', this adventure will certainly be that.
auckland, New Zealand
