Experts noted violent strombolian activities but no danger to homes.

Catania (Italy), May 10 - Mount Etna is erupting again, a new eruption from the south-east crater anticipated by a strong strombolian activity with emission of ash and lava.

The effusive activity of the lava flows arrives to the base of the crater. The volcano launches incandescent lava fountains high hundreds of meters.

The eruption is constantly under the control of the “Civil Protection” and the Institute of geophysics and volcanology of Catania.

They do not report threats to the towns.

Last day I’ve found a great PDF [#] about a Marketing analysis of the Adventure tourism market.

I’ve read a good Psychographic profile of what an Adventure traveller is.

I was too curious because there are a lot of websites, tour operators, magazine that refer their business about “Adventure Travel”
