replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @CharlesMcCool Adventurous could include something our of the way from the normal tourist trail, or a different activity to what one would normally do. Definitions will vary of course. #TRLT

@findinganeish @TheTravelCamel I mean, culturally, yes, if that's something different from what you're used to, but I can't really say it's ... worthy?
But maybe that's because I'm 'too close' so it does feel mundane. To others it might be the most exciting part of their trip? Because it's *different* #TRLT

A3: an Authentic Experience that touched my heart on The Road Less Travelled was trading shoes for hugs and leather art, with George & his family, in Varadero, Cuba. This exceptional opportunity nurtured a deeper connection that always resonates with me.

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 I thought I was prepared, but was definitely not. But I wasn't about to give up either. #trlt

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @CharlesMcCool I knew you were going to ask that! I was 12 at the time and just looked it up: Ohel David in Prune. Lots of traveling to make it to the wedding! #TRLT

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @LindaPeters64 A3. Almost every experience in travel touches my heart (except butt cramp, but the clue’s in the name). The good, like seeing something I never thought I’d see, and the bad, like witnessing homelessness or poverty in places I thought I wouldn’t. #TRLT

A3. When I can connect a compelling book with the destination where it happens, that sticks with me. For example, Jeff Guinn's book about Bonnie and Clyde, then going to the spot in Louisiana where they were killed - https://t.co/dsCIV4IynB #TRLT

replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel @LindaPeters64 A3) Being outside of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo was special "Authentic Experience" because knew that my Dad had been there years earlier during the Korean War, going inside to see the gardens was just icing on the cake. #TRLT

@Morology @LindaPeters64 yeh.
There's a large part of the world where people find you, and it's hard to avoid that. I had it in West Africa, in Bangladesh, in Central Asia ... you just stand there and people, events, experiences, come to you and happen to you, without even much searching. #TRLT
