Interesting Magazine Articles
 

This month's Conde-Nast Traveler has an article on touring the Mosel-Saar-Ruwer wine country and visiting the island of Folegandros, Greece.

I love Conde-Nast but they travel in a completely different stratosphere than we do!

I think Conde-Nast Magazine travel perspective is a bit of an oxymoron--- how to get the most for your travel dollar in First Class (?). Oh, well. The last issue I cared to browsed had a female model wearing a very sophisticated designer number surrounded by locals on a small Peruvian village. Kinda of tacky 19th Century idea of "roughing it".....

even magazines that show items out of my budgetary league (Architectural Digest, for another example) can have useful information, or point me in a direction which I can adapt for my own lifestyle and needs. I'll take information anywhere I can get it.

In contrast, though for me some of the rest of it is a lower budget level than I usually want, the Frommers Magazine Budget Travel also often has good tips.

Tomorrow's New York Times travel section has a comparison of some of the
fare search engines such as Sidestep and
Kayak.

Thanks ira - I love Conde Nast and even if I cannot afford most of their suggestions they are truly the stuff fantasies are made of!

The London daily paper, the Independent, keeps at
http://travel.independent.co.uk/europe/eastern/ and …/western an archive of their travel reports since 2001. For Eastern Europe these introduce places that cost half the prices in western Europe, an advantage to north Americans these days.

Thanks, Ben, I've added the Independent travel archive to my bookmarks. J.

Thanks Ira for the tip. I do not subscribe to Conde-Nast any more, but I love reading articles about different parts of Greece. There is not a lot out there. I will go to the news stand tomorrow.
