“If the Internet were everything it is cracked
up to be, we would all stay home and be brilliantly witty and insightful. Yet
with so much contradictory information available, there is more reason to
travel than ever before: to look closer, to dig deeper, to sort the authentic
from the fake; to verify, to smell, to touch, to taste, to hear, and sometimes –
importantly – to suffer the effects of this curiosity”
-
Paul Theroux, from The Last Train to Zona Verde
