I went to Arizona for Spring Break for 4 days, and I almost had a mental breakdown because it was the longest time I had gone without checking my Facebook.
The guy that wrote this article went 4 months on the road, and managed to stay connected wherever he was.
Is it possible for today's human traveler to go 4 months without the web? I would think so, but you would either have to have a mega-awesome travel agent, or at least a good game plan. I myself cannot survive a day without connecting myself electronically to somebody or something. Thats not a bad thing, but it is kind of crazy to think about.
My girlfriend always gives me crap for being so attached to technology and the internet. I'll admit that my relationship with the web is rather excessive, but thats just the way I am, and the internet is always going to be around in one form or another, so I might as well get used to using it and learn about it while I can. That is why I liked this dude's article so much, because it shows how us humans can incorporate innovative, convenient, and useful technology into something that humans have enjoyed for thousands of years.
Thanks for reading.
