One of my favorite guilty pleasures besides traveling is a travel reality show called “The Amazing Race.” If you haven’t heard of it, its a somewhat glamorized version of reality backpacking. Adventure seekers travel around the globe in a race to win a million dollars. Most of our journeys end in life goals being accomplished; which is just as rewarding as a million bucks.

Tired of theme parks, smelly tourist buses, and cancelled reservations? Concerned about our environment and the impact of travel upon it? Imagine instead a lush, green canopy overhead, a mossy, leaf-covered path underfoot. Listen now to the calls of colorful, exotic birds! Glimpse beautiful butterflies darting through patches of sunlight as you meander through their pristine, green palace – “Nature’s Cathedral.”
