Hi #TRLT peeps. Once again I'm unable to join the chat but wanted to share one way for authentic experience is to volunteer. I guess this speaks most to Q3. I've volunteered w/ animals & cultures, but this was the most meaningful & I wrote this essay 🙂

A1: For me, the best way to find an Authentic Experience is to villages and small towns that don't receive many tourists. Authentic Experiences are more easily found on The Road Less Travelled. #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel It's apparently not the wettest town in the UK. But the UK as a whole is generally damp.

A1: I strive to focus on experiences that resonate authenticity on our travels, through appreciation of opportunities which share the uniqueness of a proud community. Discover where locals spend their free time.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel A1: Though I feel the word “authentic” is overused, for me it means favoring local-owned restaurants (who have locally-sourced menus) and accommodations (as well as other activities) that connect with the culture and, if possible, indigenous people. #TRLT

#trlt A1: I hate to put a downer on things, but what even *is* 'authentic' anyway? Sometimes it's hard to tell.

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 that doesn't necessarily mean they're *good* experiences though. Just locally popular. #trlt

replying to @JCreatureTravel @JCreatureTravel The word is used a lot, but there are not many alternatives for the word (genuine perhaps). I'm also a fan of locally-owned restaurants. #TRLT

replying to @HeidiSiefkas @HeidiSiefkas A1) A true "Authentic Experience" to me is something that comes naturally & unexpectedly which in turn can make it more memorable. #TRLT
