Worswick,
"These people Any and Suzanne are total wankers. They are tourists not travellers."
I agree, a traveller wouldn't, couldn't set up that kind of site. I'm not in your league, but travelled in Europe by train, hitching, bus for a couple of years in the early 70s, learned the difference between "traveller" and "tourist" then. Didn't have "rock rice", but close. Of course, lots of European students were doing the same thing, so it wasn't quite the same, but did meet and travel with Travellers too. They taught me a lot. Like how we're all travellers, only some of us know it and most don't. More important than most of the stuff I learned from the Great Philosophers (and, of course, from the University teachers). Allowed me to understand people like Kierkegaard and Dostoevsky much better than I otherwise would have.
Best,
Sam |
