The Travelling UXCentrist

To renew one's appreciation for excellent user experiences, there's nothing like traveling. Finding yourself in unfamiliar settings, unsure of what to do or where to go, is an invaluable way to rediscover what it means to be a "user."

Over the last couple of weeks or so, Mrs. Centric and I explored the American Southwest by car and road bike. We visited towns small and large, restaurants haute and not, attractions grand and neglected, hotels basic and plush. And while I tried to keep it from being a busman's holiday, we couldn't help but reflect on some of the experiences we had as users. Over the next few days, I'll share some of these observations. Stay tuned. You might be surprised!
