Check out this great TED talk:
Sherry Turkle: Connected but Alone?
This beautiful video cuts right to the heart of what Pando is all about. We, living in this modern age, are caught in a paradox. We have spectacular technology designed and made nearly universal for connecting us to each other and ourselves but we are becoming more alone, more isolated and more disconnected. While this style of living "works" for the pace and style of life that has become our world, it does NOT work for a huge portion of the travelers in this world. These people (which I would argue is the vast majority) crave and long for something deeper and much more meaningful than sharing information.
There is and has always been a deep hunger for a deep and real connection with other humans and for our own selves. This is the issue at hand. This is the solution for SO many of the problems in our world including chronic disease management in the medical world. Can we face this reality and bring it to the light of our collective consciousness? Will we try? At Pando, this is our mission.
