"If you approach something with real passion and dedication and think about it all the time, and work on it until 1 am," Hartshorne told Staff Writer Nick Grabbe, "eventually you're going to succeed. I'm already succeeding by traveling, editing and teaching people how to work with the Web. And I'm having a ball."

March 2002
Former Transitions Abroad Editor Max Hartshorne acquires GoNOMAD.com from Creator Lauryn Axelrod. Computer Engineer Joe O'Beng, a former mathematics teacher from Ghana, joins the site as Webmaster. A story about the transfer appeared in The Recorder in Greenfield and the Daily Hampshire Gazette in Northampton. "As opposed to what most travel is, going to Disney World or lying down on a beach and winding down,” Hartshorne told Arn Albertini of The Recorder, “Alternative travel is involved travel. It's learning travel. It's active travel. It's making an effort to engage with the people who live in the countries you visit."
