RIP Dean Alphonso Buell

Celebrating the life of Dean Alphonso Buell in April, 2012 with his mom and two friends. Dr. Travelbest is priviledged to know Raquel Giraldez, mother of the deceased, as she was the designer and illustrator and most travelled friend of Dr. Travelbest in 1993 as the book was being written and published.

In this episode: Faq on what you should share on social media?   Destination: Seychelles, Travel Mistake, Travel Tip FAQ What ways should you be careful in terms of sharing about your travels on social media? What should you be careful about for the content you post and your replies? Social media is a blessing today, but for some it is a curse. Here are some tips for using it while on the road. Social media distracts from the real experience, so consider how you interact with those you are with and those you could be talking with instead of trying to get the best social post to strangers. Get your research from friends before you go. Ask. Where should you go? Stay? Eat? Visit? Once on the road, limit your social media to when you really need to connect. Otherwise, take a break!
