Magazine inspired travel tips for when you just wanna have fun

Vacation PlanningVacation PlanningEver wish travel guides had a little more of what you really want to do? Fashion mags show us the fun side of cities - hot shopping, gourmet food, and hot nightspots. But that information passes its expiration date - sometimes before the mag goes to print.

If you want a hot girly trip outside of your favorite read's editorial schedule, you'll need another source to find your dream shopping district

Thankfully, the Internet has the same advice as magazines. But it's fresh and available when you want it.

Eat, Sleep, Party

Fabsearch has you covered for everything but shopping. This simple search engine is actually an archive of magazine reviewed hot spots to sleep or eat - perfect for when you remember reading something in Vogue that made you really want to go to Bali....but you can't remember when or why.

 

Store Adore = Shopping galore

Channel Becky Bloomwood by tuning into Store Adore. Instead of featuring products, it focuses on the shops that locals and stylish tourists love.

Each store profile is professionally written, and users upload their reviews as well. I'm taking advantage of the stores with online shopping until I can hit one of the select cities it covers - I might miss the atmosphere, but I still score the same sweet clothes.

The need to have

The need to have self-confidence is very important. Especially when you step in the working life. Well, I've overcome my shyness and now I'm more confident. Thanks to the tips and guides at http://www.confidencebuildingcourses.com . You should try it too.

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Julia Rosien said "Great to meet you as well, Terri. And yes, we adore the Bay of Fundy :-) While I'll agree it's no longer parka weather in your neck of the woods, it's not quite string bikini weather either. Shall we toast to it and let the beer warm us up? Happy St Paddy's Day! Julia"

  • On Canada Goes Green for St. Patrick's Day, Terri said "hey Travel girls, great to hear that you love our Bay of Fundy here on the east coast of Canada as much as you love Tim Horton's ...and, as a Bay of Fundy chick, I love the green tide analogy. For sure, there will be lots of fun times down here around St Paddy's day but I just want to send you a correction to say you certainly won't be needing a parka? to visit at this time of year. It's +8 to +10 degress Celius (that's in the 50s F for our American friends) - definitely well above parka weather. haha So nice that the birds are chirping and the maple sap is flying out of the trees and, ultimately, on to our pancakes. Happy spring! Terri the Bay of Fundy blogger bayoffundy.blogspot.com "

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Sad and heavy heart said "On a note about the roads of Totrola which are steep, and windy and narrow, all the more reason that tour vehicles should have regular safety checks, SEATBELTS (which dirvers should mandate use or not allow passengers to continue with the tour, driver's should go slow, and Princess Cruise Lines should do extensive background checks, and not hire people with the nick-name of Crash-Dummy."

  • On Tour Bus Crash in Tortola – Caribbean Princess Passenger Dies, Jan said "We were also on the ship with our friends, had spent the day at the beach in Tortola where the slider on my Omega came off, "broke" and lost. I had just purchased it on board the ship the day prior. But nothing can compare to the loss of a family member. The Captain had everyones attention for the announcement. Captain Draper done a great job informing the passengers of the accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rumphrey family."
