The art of traveling with technology (or not)
The use of social software while traveling can either enhance travel or diminish it, depending on the meaning and frequency of the messages. It has become super-easy to send messages to friends or family from almost anywhere in the world, but this should not be similar to sending an everyday message from a cafe or…
