Purchased Cameron's book for Kindle from Amazon ($1.99!) and offer these thoughts............
I believe most travelers, me included, need(ed) training to learn how to "be there" in lieu of believing the priority is "seeing there". So much focus is placed upon vacation time available, expense incurred and desire to "maximize" the trip. Cameron's writing style is a form of mental travel yoga exercised by peeling back the immediacy found in current travel media research sites. Taking the time to read between the lines teaches how Cameron learned to absorb his travel experiences.
Cameron works too hard for me to want his job as a travel expert, but am grateful for what we can learn from his travel experiences. Perhaps the moniker, The Temporary European, is too esoteric for attracting planners of "trips", but the book offers a great benefit for laying the path to create a "journey".
BTW: attempted to be thoughtful and write with clarity for this post and realized how hard it is simply to be a writer (another job Cameron has that I do not want while grateful for his talents).
Be well!
