Walking is an easy, inexpensive way to travel greener in 2010.
You can walk more wherever you’re traveling from Bangkok to New York and whatever you’re doing from business traveling to honeymooning.
Walking lets you experience the sights, sounds, scents and energy of your destination. Up close and personal, you can meet residents, learn about local culture and feel the pulse of everyday life there.
