We rely so much on spoken and written language when we travel, but is it possible that focusing too much on it prevents us from communicating other ways? Longtime travel journalist Spud Hilton explores the topic in a new Inappropriate Traveler podcast feature called Grounded!, an audio column looking at the myths, cliches and assumptions that many make about travel.
In this episode, we talk about Spud's time as the travel editor at the San Francisco Chronicle, traveling with sex toys, why SEO is effectively con to get people to read stuff they wouldn't otherwise read, the origin of the word “staycation,” and how humor makes writing more memorable. Spud Hilton is a travel expert, consultant, featured speaker and editor for the SF Bay Area edition of the WHERE Traveler guide. In 20 years at the San Francisco Chronicle he earned 13 Lowell Thomas Awards for travel journalism. He hosts the Inappropriate Traveler podcast, which was named one of the “Ten Best Travel Podcasts” for 2020 by the London Telegraph. He has been featured on CNN International, “Good Morning America,” and NPR.
