All right, so this is hardly roughing it…hardly a trip for the true “engaged” traveler, but I thought it was
interesting nonetheless. Luxist has a feature on TCS
Expeditions, which offers a journey called Heaven and Earth, a 24-day circumglobular expedition to some of the planet’s
great sites. The Taj Mahal, Machu Picchu, Easter Island, you’ll see them all and be transported there in the
sybaritic comfort a private jet…so yes, it bloody expensive and fairly ludicrous, but you have to admit if
you were offered the chance to go, you would.
