independent traveller Explanation: - -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-12 13:04:43 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Commonly used term in English - over 9,000 hits on Google. Independent traveller as opposed to package tourist. \"Package tourists less damaging than independent travellers Summarised from an article by Hilary Bradt entitled \'Better to travel cheaply?\' in The Independent on Sunday (Feb 12th \'95). When I was asked me to take part in a debate \'Independent travel is more damaging to the host country than package tourism\', I had to consider which side I was on, being professionally involved in both independent travel and package tourism. \" http://www.globalideasbank.org/BI/BI-242.HTML -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-12 13:06:31 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- \"VAGABONDO - The independent traveller\'s site. This site is for those persons who like to plan their travels by themselves, out of the road of mass tourism, not inclined to buy something ready made from big tour operators.\" http://www.vagabondo.net/Indexeng.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-07-12 13:07:38 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- If also you wanted \"(come andare)\", you could try \"how to get there\" |
