Framing the Concept

Today's NY Times brings the news that this summer's vacationers are "ditching their shoes and seeking out destinations that shun the gloss and polish of their everyday lives." They want "more authentic experiences than a five-star resort can offer them. This is completely about immersing yourself in a particular culture."

OK, I can go with that. This summer, I want to immerse myself in Canadian culture.

"They find that they want to immerse themselves in something they can't quite put their finger on. They want to be African or be Moroccan, a they see it."

This summer, I want to be Canadian.
