I just discovered your blog while planning my travels. Hmmmm. I read through as much as I could. After reading the first post about Amazon I thought, hey, at least he's trying.
But then I read "As best I can tell, I am one of the only people on planet earth that actually travels and writes."
You don't actually read much then?
"Most Travel Writers get free vacations given to them, they then suck up to the resort, say all sorts of bull about the resort or tourist destination in return for their free trip."
You recently wrote about marketing yourself to Philippine hotels for websites and photographs in exchange for accommodation etc. It's not exact to your statement, but then ..
"I love my BlackBerry Storm"
Yes, similar to the Travel Writer thing again.
"I am not on vacation, I never go home."
Yes you do. You did quite recently before your Africa trip go home!
I was looking at some travel sites recently and came across yours. It looked like a nice read. But I see inconsistency and well ... double standards. I also see a change in the writing style between some posts. And I wonder if it's not being churned out somewhere.
I think you speak with more honesty and straight forwardness than many commercial blogs. But I can't follow it as really it means nothing considering what I just mentioned.
I wish you the best, and hope you change things a little. Shame there's no RSS either!
