Links to weekly destinations or travel ideas; hints on navigating our Web site,
printing pages, where to find our text- only pages; and when we will not be
updating our site.
The Civilized Explorer team reads voraciously offline as well as on, and our
view is that the PaperView is the best way to get portable information you can
take with you on your trip -- Books! We review books we have read and offer
links to Amazon.com where you can buy them at a discount with worldwide
shipping.

The Civilized Explorer Travel Information Page
The Civilized Explorer has an extensive set of pages on Burning Man. This event
is difficult to describe, but picture 20,000 people in a desert be- in where
Buckaroo Bonzai pierced some dimension and these people are piercing a dimension,
too, but with a better truck. No, that's not it. Picture a place where you are
totally free to be yourself for a few days. Goths suffer dramatically and
beautifully. Drag queens get rave reviews of their clothes. People wear dinner
jackets covered in scales made from CDs or tuxedos laced with electroluminescent
wiring that changes colors as they take an evening stroll. No, it is more than
that. Picture a place where what counts is art, creativity, and civilized
behavior in extreme circumstances. It is all of that and more. Much more.
This section of the web site contains material which shows people in costumes
which are calculated to offend, people without any costumes at all, piercings,
tattoos, and more, as well as normal people, glorious art, wonderful artcars,
ingenious camping with style, and more. The table of contents gives reviews lf
all the pages, so you can pick which ones to view. Drop by The Civilized Explorer
Burning Man and take a look.
We often go on vacations in the United States as well as to the Caribbean. Here is a list of some of our other travels, with photos and videos.
