From the bottom of the article:
>Seth Kugel has written the Frugal Traveler column since June 2010. This is his last column. His successor, Lucas Peterson, will start later this month.
Based on the author's experiences and appreciation for integrating into developing culture over being coddled, I can only hope for him that he's leaving to join the Peace Corps or similar.
- tgokh 11y agoSounds like he'll be writing a book and has been producing a video series http://sethkugel.com/14-and-a-half-months/ http://sethkugel.com/14-and-a-half-months/
- peter303 11y agoI wonder why they changed writers. I wonder if Seth got expenses paid by employer.
- matt_morgan 11y agoI don't know about this specific circumstance, but travel writers I've known got free trips from the tourist agencies, resorts, etc. in the countries they visit. Disclosure is not typical.
- skdd8 11y agoBased on your preference for being coddled, I can only hope one day you move out of your mama's basement.
