I now quit the Boardingarea.com site.

I have always written a blog that is honest and free from promotional deals and the kind of travel journalism represented by the likes of Chris Elliott, and I fear that kind of travel promotion now prevails in too many online venues.

I shall continue doing my kind of honest and opinionated travel journalism, including on  my highly regarded personal blog,  Joesharkey.com, which is titled “High Anxiety.”

Many thanks!
