Tourism on planet Earth: August 2010

Just in the nick of time prior to the Monday morning 6am EST trading deadline, Candid Engineer has been traded to the new scientific blogging community of Scientopia. Click on the link for full details on the Candid Engineer scouting report and trade.

W00t!!!

My love and appreciation go out to Scicurious and MarkCC, the masterminds behind the Scientopia community, for including me in this interesting and diverse mix of science bloggers. Once you're over at the Scientopia site, take a look around at the new digs. It will make you totally happy.

You'll have to update your RSS feed over at the new blog- there's a little "Grab the Feed" button up in the top right corner where you can subscribe to the new feed. Sorry for the inconvenience! You know I love you!

See you on the other side...

About This Blog

Although for a long time my activity was linked to the academic world and the theme of the preservation of the environment, today I am far from the academic world and dedicated to the hotel industry and advice to hotels concerned with the care of the environment and ecological tourism. Small hotels where the concern is responsible tourism. But not everything here will revolve around ecology, hotels or the environment, but other issues that may be of my interest.
