It’s really easy when we travel to stay in our own worlds.
iPods, Kindles, hotel rooms, etc. We can build a cocoon.
The point of travel, at least for me, is to expand horizons.
And, to do that, it’s about people.
When I travel on business, I’m focused, that’s for sure and I always try and do at least one thing unique to that place to make it memorable.
I’m also going to try and chronicle at least one interesting conversation.
This one is William Abbey, a retired Seattle police officer who is almost finished with his goal of bicycling across the entire country.
