Travis’s Recent Updates
“Since my addiction to motion is what feeds my writing, the main purpose of travel for me is to get lost.”
― See You Again in Pyongyang: A Journey into Kim Jong Un's North Korea

“The North Korean government, for all the terrible things it undeniably and inexcusably does, also builds housing, schools, and hospitals for its citizens. If you had concrete proof that your tourist money was being spent on the construction of an orphanage, would this be the deciding factor that would persuade you to travel there? Are there no aspects of every country one might object to—including your own? Once we begin to impose travel boycotts on ethical grounds, we quickly run out of places we can go.”

“The North Korean regime and its leaders have often been described as irrational. My experiences have made me question that contention and wonder if this “irrationality” is more often than not a label applied to those who do not wish to understand an opponent’s worldview.”
