villa rentals in Europe
 

Have you rented a villa in the countryside in Europe? I am the editor of a travel newsletter about that subject and am looking for experienced travelers to interview about their experiences -- the companies they used, the villas they stayed at, and the shops, restaurants, and tourist sites they visited. If you would be willing to share your travels with me, please send me an e-mail. I'd love to hear from you!<BR><BR>Susannah Clark<BR>Countryside Vacations

I have, five times now - - and might be willing to share. Sooner or later, someone willtell you about www.slowtrav.com - - the premier website for those who love Europe travel by way of self-catering accomodations. There are a LOT of people with much experience there.<BR><BR>Best wishes,<BR><BR>Rex Bickers<BR>Westerville, Ohio<BR>

I've stayed at several, but frankly most of them tend to be filled with real travel editors who are trying to experience what travel is like instead of sitting at their computer asking other people their opinions. I suspect that their newsletters were better than yours, since their articles were based on true experience, not the second hand opinions of varied travelers many who may have never been out of Iowa before.

What did this snippy last comment mean?<BR>

Apparently only travel editors have "true" travel experiences, which makes practically every posting on this site irrelevant. Better shut it down.

NYTimes 7/28 Travel Section page 3 has a blurb about this newsletter. She's charging $38 for a year's subscription.<BR><BR>www.countryside-vacations.com

Doesn't look like she's been back here any since this posting.<BR><BR>What prompted you to drag this up, Elvira?<BR><BR>

Way to go Elvira!

huh?<BR>

Why "way to go Elvira"? What kind of earth-shattering info did Elvira provide? Oh, that somebody publishes a newsletter for MONEY???? Imagine that! Somebody tring to make a profit in a legitimate business. That sure is a novel concept in the USA! LOL!!!!!

That Elvira is a troll. Don't pay attention to what she says.

Most of us on here appreciate what Elvira contributes.
