Andrew Evans, the Digital Nomad at National Geographic's Intelligent Travel blog who is "always traveling and always wired," has launched a "Traveling to the End of the World" [2] series of posts from 2012-relevant Maya archaeological sites and living Maya communities.
"I am not afraid of the world ending," Evans writes. "Rather, I am afraid of the world ending before I get to see it all."
Amen. So he goes to Mexico "to find out the truth.... This is how I want to learn about the Maya—by surrounding myself in their world."
A noble quest indeed. I plan on tracking Evans's travels via @WheresAndrew [3] and this interactive map of Mexico’s Maya region [4].
