Aug 25, 2010, Article: 20 Things I learned from Traveling Around the World for 3 Years
The author of one of the Blogs I love to follow, www.everything-everywhere.com, Just published this article in the Huffinton Post.
I love this article as I can relate to most of his experiences and how he views the world.
It is especially great if you are are nervous to travel out of your own country. His top 20 things really are accurate and he advocates that everyone should travel outside their own country to really understand the rest of the world. It really is the only way to do it!

Jul 27, 2010, Cute Joke Sent to Me
Please don't take offense if you are blonde - it works with every type of hair color :-)
Flight to New York:
A beautiful, well-dressed blonde seats herself in the first class cabin on a cross-country flight, and settles herself in for the trip, smiling prettily at admiring passengers seated around her.
Underway, a flight attendant soon approaches the blonde and says, 'Miss, I'm sorry, but I see that your ticket is for coach, and you're seated in first class; I'm afraid you'll have to move.'
The blonde replies, 'I'm blonde, and I'm beautiful, and I'm going to New York to be a model.'
Slightly incredulous, the attendant alerts the senior flight attendant.
The senior attendant approaches the blonde and says, politely, 'I'm sorry, Miss, but since your ticket is for coach, you'll have to move back.'
The blonde replies, sweetly, 'I'm blonde, and I'm beautiful, and I'm going to New York to be a model' -- and shows no signs of moving.
Frustrated, the senior attendant informs the captain, and he says he'll deal with the problem.
He turns over flight control, walks to the rear, and observes the blonde seated comfortably in first class.
Approaching her with a smile, the captain leans over and speaks quietly into the blonde's ear. Almost immediately, the blonde gathers her things, gets up, and moves quickly to the coach compartment. Amazed, the senior flight attendant asks the captain, 'Captain, I'm impressed ... what did you say to her?'
The captain grinned slyly and said, 'I just told her that the first class cabin doesn't go to New York.'

Apr 14, 2010, Is the new Apple IPad a good investment for travellers?
I have fallen in love with the new Apple IPad and can't wait to get one - I haven't even touched one yet. But I already know that it will do everything I want it to do.
I waited until it came out before I looked at purchasing a Kindle (another e-book reader). I loved how the Kindle made your e-books look like real books (i.e. the print and screen looked like paper)
The Ipad also has an ebook reader - I can't wait to see how it looks - especially as the IPad does so much more!
This article shares one traveller's experience with the Ipad and travelling.
