replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot @LindaPeters64 @Touchse @HeidiSiefkas Thanks, its nice to be back for this week's #TRLT.

replying to @SKJtraveler @SKJtraveler @RTWBarefoot Thank you, for sharing your heartfelt thoughts with #TRLT

replying to @ShebsAlom @ShebsAlom I was there, and in Derry, last month. Definitely very interesting, especially to a Brit who lived through some of it at a dustance and through a biased lens. #trlt

replying to @ShebsAlom @ShebsAlom Great to see you back at #TRLT! Looks an interesting place to explore and learn.

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TheTravelCamel @RTWBarefoot @Touchse @HeidiSiefkas For now but Shemp has his Diva moments too. 😄😾 #TRLT

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot A1: Hmm when I realize others are not and that I am the foreigner. Flying in blind no bucket list no plan, wander outside comfort zone. and then, is it possible as a tourist traveler to experience true authenticity at all? Morning all, maybe another coffee. #trlt

A1. Some of the most authentic travel experiences are ones that locals might not even realize are particularly appealing, like a local beer in a local place that's been around for awhile. This one is in Grand Rapids, Michigan / @ExperienceGR. #TRLT


replying to @nerdseyeview @nerdseyeview Luckily, what connects us together and to a community is different for everyone. I feel most connected outdoors. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @RTWBarefoot @LindaPeters64 @Touchse @HeidiSiefkas I'm glad that this is the last week for me till we change to an hour earlier (we don't have summer time in Kenya). I much prefer the 8pm start compared to the current 9pm. #TRLT

replying to @Morology
@Morology It's a very good question., Especially as a lot of the time, the 'authentic experiences' touted are merely mock-ups done for tourist observsations.
But also, most locals in most places in most of the world lead very mundane lives. #trlt

replying to @Morology @Morology @RTWBarefoot There are a lot of benefits in just wandering around a destination with no plan. #TRLT

replying to @dgtlwriter @dgtlwriter that's a very deep thought! #trlt do you have a personal example?

replying to @terryanzur @terryanzur @TheTravelCamel @ShebsAlom A1 Sound like a great way to reverse roles - students teaching the teacher. #trlt #traveltuesday

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @Morology Yes, I'm wary of what is really authentic. They can be found - but usually they are away from the tourist crowds. #TRLT

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @ShebsAlom I've always thought you can gain a great insight into what matters in the minds of the hyper-local communities by what they do with their walls. Be it things like this, or political symbolism in street art, or community togetherness children-paintings. #trlt

A2: Some adventurous Authentic Experiences that I've enjoyed was to visit & explore the wonders of Germany; through accepting the invitation to visit from former #ESL homestay students.
Discovering a sense of place & culture through daily life & insights.
Q: @CharlesMcCool
#TRLT


A2. With a bum knee, I can't do most winter sports, but then I learned to snowshoe. Not a big deal for many, but big for me, to strike out on a snowshoe trail, this one at @SolitudeMTN in Utah. #TRLT


replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 @TheTravelCamel @CharlesMcCool @raptorsridge A2: I cross-country skied and went reindeer sledding in Northern Lapland where I interacted with and learned from the native Sami people. #TRLT


replying to @cactusjoe333 @cactusjoe333 @CharlesMcCool What an incredible view over Bagan! I took a photo of the balloons at dawn from the ground (but I cannot share it at the moment) - so instead here is dawn in Bagan. #TRLT
