How Introverts Travel »

Great article about how many introverts approach travel differently. I have to admit, I’m drawn to articles (like this one, titled “Caring For Your Introvert”) that describe personality differences between introverts and extroverts. A sample of the article:

“But I don’t seek people out, I am terrible at striking up conversations with strangers and I am happy exploring a strange city alone. I don’t seek out political discourse with opinionated cab drivers or boozy bonding with locals over beers into the wee hours. By the time the hours get wee, I’m usually in bed in my hotel room, appreciating local color TV.” (Via Kottke)
