Reflections
Ron Mader: I began Planeta.com in 1994 as a means to explore the worlds of travel and conservation, culture and nature, finding ways to move out of individual silos and co-create a living encyclopedia of what works and what doesn’t around the world.
Anyone can pay attention for an instant. But what does it take to pay attention over time?
Enough of the drive-by conversations, the small talk masquerading as meaningless talking points. Enough of the ephemera and moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
When institutional memory is lacking or we find ourselves fidgeting, it’s hard to practice anything resembling conscious living, let alone travel. Conscious travel demands individual AND collective attention spans. We begin to connect the dots, even if that means exposing vulnerabilities and things we need to fix. Moving on and moving forward.
