Think it is safe to forget about the hikers in Iran. They are from Berkeley and among their people now... ------------------------------------------------------------- Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Joshua Fattal -- three University of California-Berkeley graduates arrested Friday after crossing from Iraq into Iran during a hike -- are seasoned travelers with an appetite for interaction with other cultures, friends and associates said. Bauer, 27, and his girlfriend Shourd, 30, left the San Francisco Bay area last fall for a yearlong visit to the Middle East, where Bauer planned to spend time "absorbing on the ground whatever he could in the Arab world and offered to contribute stories to us," said Sandy Close, executive director of California-based New America Media. "I think this is a very experienced traveler, a backpack kind of traveler, not somebody who would go to the Ritz Carlton," Close said of Bauer. "[He's] somebody who would go to the hostel, who would operate on a shoestring, as many freelancers do." cnn.com
