The Tranquilo Traveler
The Tranquilo Traveler is a celebration of voluntourism, slow travel, and other interesting ways to see the world. Travel writer and award- winning Moon Handbooks author Joshua Berman created The Tranquilo Travel as a resource for world trippers and international volunteers, a window to the author’s travels in Nicaragua, Belize, and beyond, and an update of his books and articles.
Peace Corps Writers Interview

On the same morning that Randy and I submit our 350-page book manuscript to our editors in California (whew!), our interview with PeaceCorpsWriters.org goes live.
The interview was conducted by editor John Coyne, who along with publisher Marian Haley Beil (both Peace Corps Ethiopia 1962–64), provide a wonderful service by linking together the 700 or so published writers who also served in the Peace Corps.
If you’re interested, Randy and I talk about the history of our collaboration, the making of Moon Handbooks Nicaragua, plus some details about our motivation for joining the Peace Corps and the work we did as vounteers (Nicaragua 1998-2000). Enjoy.
