    Top 10 Best Value Destinations for 2012 via Lonely Planet

    Planning your travels for 2012?  Consider Lonely Planet’s Top 10 Best Value Destinations.  I’m glad Japan, Portugal and Vietnam made the list. It would be nice to personally see Porto, home to the world-famous Porto wine which I love.;) Porto, Portugal The town that put the ‘Port’ in Portugal (as well as the port in your wine glass) is a seriously good deal. Connected with much of Europe via budget airlines, Porto is a lovely town of atmospheric narrow lanes, village-like plazas and buildings decked in azuelo tile.

    on the web… experimental traveller

    If you’re the type of traveller who would forego the usual tourist guidebook fare in favor of new (and experimental) ways to travel, then visit this really cool site– Lonely Planet’s EXPERIMENTAL TRAVEL.  The site is chockful of tips and information on how to travel the unusual way. I love the quizzes and the artwork. Download their cool and FREE screen saver! Or simply try out one of their experiments.
