The Broadway Center welcomes travel guru Rick Steves to its Pantages Theater for a travel chat. Steves - book author, Europe expert, pot smoker, global wanderer, TV host - has spent four months each year overseas for the last 30 years. Bobble Tiki loves to travel and was all set to go ... until he discovered that Steves will lead a discussion on travel as a spiritual act. According to pre-event hype, "Travel helps us appreciate the spiritual diversity of the planet while nourishing the soul of the traveler as he/she encounters the beautiful and the unique in new and unfamiliar places. Rick shares how the other 96 percent of humanity sees our nation and explores how his social activism has grown naturally out of his travel experiences." Bobble Tiki has made a career or being both unconscious and shallow, so maybe this event isn't for him.
RICK STEVES, 5 p.m., Pantages Theater, 901 Broadway, Tacoma, $15-$75, fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity Guatemala Build, 253.591.5894
