>Dave Kruger asked: > >So, how does wilderness travel affect YOU? I'm curious. I spent 6 weeks doing archaeology in Northern Kenya with a small group of people- vast open landscapes, only other human contact a few nomadic goat herders that didn't speak english...Getting back to civilization was a complete shock...I wanted to turn around and head right back into the sahel. I ended up thinking many horrible thoughts about the human species. But I am natually anti-social and don't generally enjoy being around lots of people--I experience the same kind of culture shock even after being gone for a few days in the back country. But its also the same reason I keep going out again and again...
