About the Author
Mark Cramer and his wife Martha have shared the common joy of living in different cultures. Before anyone coined the term simplicity movement, they embarked on a path of radical downward mobility, discarding those consumer luxuries that had tied them down. Rather than globetrotting for photographic glimpses of great places, they settle down in communities where they establish roots and make lasting friendships. Both CultureShock! Cuba and Mark s FunkyTowns USA (1995) have been used by university professors as assigned texts for their students. Marcus Cramer, Mark s son, is a graduate student in Latin American Studies at the University of Paris. He has completed the revision of a book on Bolivia for Marshall Cavendish after having lived in that country. He did volunteer work with the Solón Foundation in La Paz, Bolivia, and has experienced the nitty gritty of daily life in Cuba on his own.
