Description:

This is the Web site of author,journalist, blogger, consumer advocate, civil libertarian, human rights advocate, speaker, and travel expert Edward Hasbrouck.I write and speak about travel as an aspect of life: something we do, not something we buy. There is an industry of companies and people who sell services to travellers, but travel is an activity, not an industry; an experience, not a product.We may pay for transportation and for places to sleep, just as we may pay for schooling, but we can't buy experience any more than we can buy enlightenment -- even if, in the best of worlds, travel sometimes brings us both. I abhor the commodification of travel, and I write and speak about how my readers and listeners can avoid it."Don't believe anything just because you read it on the Internet.... The Internet is the most effective medium in history for the rapid global propagation of rumor, myth, and false information."[From The Practical Nomad Guide to the Online Travel Marketplace, 2001]Travel and Privacy, Surveillance, Civil Liberties, and Human Rights:"Don't believe anything just because you read it on the Internet. Anyone can say anything on the Internet, and they do. The Internet is the most effective medium in history for the rapid global propagation of rumor, myth, and false information." (From The Practical Nomad Guide to the Online Travel Marketplace, 2001)
