Anyone up for a little civic caravan?? I’ve wanted to try one of these adventures for so long … this spring, no excuses!!
“Experimental Travel is for those people who like their travel a little less formulaic. Bored with coming home sporting a souvenir tea towel and a ‘My Mum went to Cardiff and all I got was this lousy t-shirt’ t-shirt? Then Experimental Travel is for you. Experimental Travel is not about checking off the major sights or following your guidebook to the letter; it’s a playful way of travelling, where the journey’s methodology is clear but the destination is usually unknown. Experimental Travel renders all destinations equal – be it a burger shack or the Taj Mahal. ‘Experimental Travel is travel with constraints, that at the same time liberates you from the limitations and expectations of classic tourism. By travelling with the constraints of Experimental Travel, you conversely have more freedom’. Joël Henry, founder of Latourex (Laboratory of Experimental Travel)” -ET
