The Art of Being a Tourist at Home: Satisfy Your Wanderlust Without Leaving Your Home City or Town

With over 20 years working in the tourism industry, and as a keen traveler herself, Jenny Herbert knows tourism from both sides. Her 2008 book The Intelligent Traveller was a guide to travelling well, how we might distinguish real travel from ＂McTourism＂, and how we need to be respectful and responsible travelers. Much about world tourism has changed since 2008 and Jenny recognizes the need to revisit the reasons why we travel, and the urgency to consider alternatives, without foregoing wonder, excitement and adventure. With a PhD in writing behind her, Jenny has turned her attention to demonstrating that much of what drives wanderlust can be satisfied right here at home. And without costing the earth.
