GenX Travel Experience

EVERGREEN PODCASTS
About this episode

They say it’s not the destination, but the journey that matters. Striking out on a trip — be it for business or pleasure — has changed dramatically since our days growing up as Generation X’ers. In this Backtrack, we’re exploring all the ways that the travel experience has evolved from how we first experienced it in the ’70s & ’80s!
