Camus@newstart_2024·
In the 1970s, a small Canadian town called Dauphin was chosen at random for a remarkable experiment. The government gave every resident a guaranteed basic income — the equivalent of about $15,000 a year in today’s money — with no strings attached and no way to lose it. What happened next was fascinating. People spent more time with their kids. Very few quit working entirely, but many stopped accepting terrible jobs, which actually raised overall working conditions. Employers had to offer better pay and standards to attract workers. But the most striking result? Hospitalizations for severe depression and anxiety dropped by 9% in just three years. Johann Hari shared this story and it left me thinking: what if a simple floor of financial security could meaningfully improve mental health at a population level? It’s one of those rare real-world experiments that makes you question a lot of assumptions about work, poverty, and human well-being. Have you ever heard about the Dauphin experiment before? What surprised you most?

I stumbled upon a rug dealer in Cappadocia Turkey. He had a pile of rugs in a solarium that n back of store. Nice light. Colors. I’ll take a pic. I was stopped by store owner. Who pointed over to the line that was already formed by a herd of IG couples waiting their turn. There was a price menu, including $30 for Drone shot from above. I looked up location. It was an IG hotspot. This encapsulates the IG era of travel, where people just hit certain spots for the gram. No exploration.

The problem with modern travel: We document everything. Experience nothing. The sunset through a screen. The meal before it’s tasted. The moment before it’s felt. Try this: Put your phone down for one full day. See what stays with you.

I am in Bali now for 2 weeks …. And I’m too old for this place. The crowd is easy to spot. Yoga mats. Linen bags. Tattoos. Matcha to go. Scooters. No helmet. No shirt. It’s almost a UNIFORM/ BRAND of the consciously awakened nomad, spiritually aligned, recently escaped from the 9–5 pressure of the West. Three months in Bali. Sometimes more. Living well on prices they’d complain about back home. Sitting in cafés, MacBooks open, talking about healing, spirituality, the next cacao ceremony. And how much they LOVE this island. Sure you do. You love your photos. The aesthetic. The affordable “healthy lifestyle”…. bowls, matcha, sunlight. But DO YOU actually love Bali? Because loving a place isn’t just consuming what’s beautiful. It’s taking responsibility for what isn’t. And the other Bali exists too…. trash in the streets, sick street dogs, stray cats, the parts that don’t fit your feed. They don’t disappear just because you crop them out. So here’s a thought: Skip one smoothie. One. And donate that money to the people actually doing the work here… cleaning up what your version of Bali ignores. Or at least BE HONEST. You don’t love Bali. You love the version of it that looks good on your social media feed.

@kpottermn Well, once passenge volume declines, these airlines are the very first to file bankruptcy. Just look at its bonds credit spreads.

BREAKING: United says it's hiking bag fees by $10 for all flights booked as of tomorrow. That means at least $45 each way on a domestic flight. $85 for basic econ to Europe. Lowest fees by prepaying before check-in. Still free for United cardholders and travelers with status.

La business class de Avianca es una estafa y no nos podemos cansar de decirlo. Hacen lo que se les da la gana con sus usuarios. Primera foto A320. Segunda foto B787. La peor aerolínea, de lejos, en Latinoamérica. @avianca

That doesn’t refute my point. Yes. Everywhere got expensive. But this was happening before Covid. And the sentiment in CDMX. Barca. Lisbon. Medellin. Etc. talking w locals there is definitely a rising disdain for expats. Last time I was in Sevilla the entire old town was just Airbnb’s. Nobody local lives there anymore. Blame it on PE. Blame it on Covid. Nonetheless it sucks It’s the Disneyfication of the world

After being in Buenos Aires for over a week, I can safely say Medellin is way better to live full-time, especially with a family. 1. Cheaper overall 2. Proximity to other countries for travel 3. Better access to beaches 4. More nature 5. Nicer people Still cool to visit tho

@tommyswriting Travelers were slowly replaced by PPBros circa 2014 w th advent of social media. It has reached critical mass. Speaking Spanish in S America for years opened the door to experiences PPbros can’t fathom. Cultural immersion is the way

Don't be a Passport Bro, be a Traveler Passport Bro: A full-time tourist who treats the land he's traveling in as a backdrop for his consumption. Loud, abrasive, insensitive. Doesn't learn the language (or make an attempt to), assimilate, or respect the cultures of the places he's moving to. Traveler: A culturally fluid, well-read, curious citizen of the world who makes an effort to understand the people and culture he lives among.
