READING AND WRITING

THE LONELY PLANET TRAVELLER
In 1972, Maureen and Tony Wheeler travelled across Asia. It wasn’t easy. They didn’t
have a lot of money, they drove an old car, but they had a sense of adventure. When
they returned, they wrote a book about their travel experiences. The book was
completed in 1973 and it was a huge success. The Wheelers realised that many other
people with only a small amount of money wanted to travel around the world, and they
needed guidebooks to make it easier for them to do it. This is how the Lonely Planet
guidebook series began. Since those early days, Lonely Planet guidebooks have
become the most popular travel guides in the world. Today, there are over 500 different
Lonely Planet travel guides in eight different languages. Maureen and Tony have got
hundreds of travel writers. Lonely Planet guidebooks used to be for young travellers
without money, but things have changed in the last 30 years. Today, the Lonely Planet
company has got photography books, food guides, a monthly magazine and a popular
website for travellers. Some people are critical of the guidebooks. They feel that Lonely
Planet guides are destroying many beautiful places in the world. They say that if a
place is written about in a Lonely Planet guidebook, many travellers will probably go
there. As a result, quiet and beautiful places do not stay quiet and beautiful. Although
the Lonely Planet guidebooks have caused certain places to change, the company is
also trying to make a positive difference to the world. It donates 5% of its profits to
organisations in poor countries. No one can be critical of that!
