TED Talks: Traveling the World

Can travel improve our quality of life? Where—near or far—have you visited that left an impression on you, and what made those experiences special? If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go? What makes a good travel experience, and how can we become better global tourists?

In April, gear up for Earth Day by going global and exploring what "Traveling the World" means, what it looks like, and how we can be better travelers and tourists. Join us to view a selection of curated talks on this topic and discuss as a group.

This month we'll also be joined by Stephanie Bolduc, Manager of AAA Old Saybrook, who will share expert insights and feedback relating to this topic.
