| Venice by Night. How romantic! But is it really? This account – hilarious and very precise – describes my impressions, as well. You’ll also enjoy reading about the road trip through the gorgeous Italian Alps and the adventure at the country border.

| When reading this article, I could picture every place visited and described by the author: the Jewish Warsaw, with its university and Church, the cemetery, the Royal Castle; and the taste of the great Polish food mentioned in the travelogue – I could almost feel it myself. I can now say I’ve been to Poland! How about trying it yourself?

| I never thought about an American’s perspective on Cairo, Egypt. I found it interesting, after reading this article: everything from food to taxi cabs seemed “incredibly inexpensive”, the people were friendly and the attractions – sometimes “odd”. Watch a lot of pictures and enjoy the experience of three Americans in the capital of belly dancing.

| Just like Jodie in this story, when hearing about Latvia or any other ex-Soviet Union country, I would ask: “Why would I go to any of these weird countries?” Not so after reading this. Riga is worth visiting: a beautiful medieval old town sprinkled with ultra-modern constructions and backed up with a very rich history.

| Wanderlust: Travel in broken bits |

| Sometimes, you don’t need to prepare forever to take a trip. These two guys had a refreshing trip to Austria; fully enjoyed the nice, sunny days, got lost in a maze garden outside of the Queen’s palace, and never got a full picture of Mozart’s statue in Vienna (they weren’t too lucky with the photographer). I liked the story, see it yourself!

| A Medieval Jewel in the Baltics |
| Submitted by Adele on

realtravel.com) |
| A fabulous historical account on Tallinn city and this said by one not so much fond of history. It describes the picturesque edifices, the eccentric medieval-style traditional Estonian cuisine, the grueling climb up a spiraling stone staircase and the ex-KGB headquarters, all enhanced with old captivating stories that send chills down your spine.

| Cycling in Belgium and The Netherlands |

| This lady describes the wonderful biking she enjoyed along canals, crossed rivers, lakes on ferries, old-fashioned windmills and even seeing an old castle. The extent of the bike paths and bike lanes in The Netherlands (and Belgium too) is truly astounding. I was also impressed with the huge bicycle parking lots – this must be The Land of Cycling!

| Reading this I got a pretty good picture of what Paris is like. Concise, descriptive, non-biased and with a shade of humor, this article gives you enough details on the particularity of the city from an American’s impressions. Now, if I happen to be there, I know what to expect.

| Travelogue Argentina 2003 – Buenos Aires |

| What I thought I knew about tough airplane flights was blown away after reading this article. Such an adventure, flying from Munich to Buenos Aires! And then, Argentina sounds great for my next trip, since it merges the coffee, the tango, the great food and the Latin America atmosphere to build a dream destination for anyone.
