The Future of Travel

I’m just writing a presentation for a conference on eco-travel and something just hit me…

In the future people will not be defined by what they take on holiday but by what they leave behind. This works on a couple of levels.

First it’s a reference to leaving nothing but footprints and second it’s a reference to the fact that in the future time will be the ultimate luxury.
If you take a Blackberry on holiday – or you don’t – that defines you.

One thought on “The Future of Travel

  1. Richard.. thoroughly enjoying your book, Future Files, right now! will be leaving a review over at amazon.co.uk soon

    You’re right.. Me and my girlfriend did our last holiday on the onebag.com principle.. I believe the only thing you should bring back from holidays are “memorys and photos”
