Abstract :
WHAT´S happened to our spirit of adventure? A few years ago, we´d risk waiting until the last minute before booking our flights and reserving our rooms. We didn´t care if we hadn´t seen a layout of our hotel accommodation or didn´t know the exact route we´d need to take to get to it from the airport. We´d busk it. We´d find out how to navigate a new town on arrival. We´d be pleasantly surprised to find our hotel was more central than we imagined. And we´d be faintly disappointed that there wasn´t enough space around our narrow bed to lay our suitcase flat.
