Miguel:
Surely you travel with a guidebook. I agree that one needs a plan and
some priorities, and then be willing to adjust the plan if problems
arise or if an opportunity develops, so perhaps the plan is more
important than the guidebook. But how do you develop a plan without a
reading a guidebook or other reference material.
I see guidebooks as an essential tool for a traveler, I never travel
without one, sometimes two, so I am puzzled to see you talk about
over-reliance on guidebooks. Maybe you could provide some examples of
what you mean.
