purplepolkadotpeaches asked:


The normal trip is to visit the galleries and museums in NYC, but in addition I want to visit another city, but it has to have New York caliber art. Any ideas?
I forgot to mention that I am in DC. I would prefer places close enough to there that I could drive or take a short flight, but really I would like to know about places anywhere in the country. If I can’t make a trip there right now, maybe in the future!

The Best "lesser-known" Sightseeing Stops on a Eurail Vacation

July 20th, 2008 — 09:00 pm
sightseeing
Previously know as Europass, Eurail travels through over 20 beautiful and scenic countries. With a list of destinations that includes France, Germany, Ireland, Greece, Italy and Spain; there are world famous sightseeing stops that are fairly obvious. Many travellers feel that a Eurail vacation would not be complete without stopping at sightseeing hotspots such as the Eiffel Tower in France, the Rhine River in Germany and the Acropolis in Greece.

These incredible sightseeing stops are a great start to a Eurail vacation. However, considering the amount of countries Eurail runs through, each with its own distinct history and landmarks, there are many great sightseeing stops that are overlooked. These nations are often traveled through by Eurail vacationers, but are certainly not explored to the extent that France and Germany are, for example. Eurail vacations offer sightseeing travel through Eastern, Western, Northern and Southern Europe. Throughout this impressive scope of cultures and countries, it’s understandable that certain sightseeing destinations get passed by. If you are considering a Eurail vacation and plan to do some sightseeing, take a look at some of the lesser-know sightseeing areas between visits to the Leaning Tower of Pisa or the Cliffs of Moher and Burren.

Bulgaria

This Eastern European nation rests pleasantly on the western side of the Black Sea. Its capitol, Sofia, features many parks, bars and clubs making it a fun place to stop. It also holds over 250 historical landmarks and culturally valued locations such as museums and theaters. While it may not be approached with the same enthusiasm as cities such as London and Venice, it is one of the most commonly visited locations in Bulgaria. Many areas of Bulgaria are absolutely beautiful but are less likely to be visited on many traditional Eurail trips through Europe. The mountainous terrain is accompanied by a wide array of physical traits, and make for a gorgeous and interesting trip as your train winds its ways through the many various landscapes found within the country. This diversity of landscape provides the best places to see in the county. The Black Sea beaches are wildly popular in the summer, and the many mountains provide great skiing. These factors combine with historical monuments to make Bulgaria an excellent place to visit in Europe on a Eurail vacation.

Portugal

Spain’s next door neighbor often gets overlooked by the many tourism powerhouses in its vicinity. Though smaller, Portugal offers many unique opportunities. Within an hour on a train one can travel from lush, green, vine covered mountains, to rocky, sloping mountains, to a terrain that is on the brink of being considered a desert, and finally end up at a sun filled strip of beach. There aren’t too many places where you can enjoy that much variety in just an hour. Eurail’s tracks through this beautiful nation wind along rivers and past the castles that dot the landscape. These natural wonders compliment historical locations older than Roman times and make the nation of Portugal a wonderful place to visit. A final point of attraction is the Portuguese wine economy that provides for many beautiful and fragrant environments. This small country is truly a stunning place to stay.

Slovenia

Picturesque and friendly nations in both Eastern and Western Europe are great places to enjoy sightseeing; however, an investigation of one of Europe’s centrally located gems should be included in any Eurail vacation as well. Slovenia is one nation that fits that mold. Set between the Alps, the Mediterranean and the Pannonian Plain this country is able to offer natural attractions such as mountains, lakes, rivers, waterfalls, forests, caves, hills, plains and even thermal springs. There is also the Mediterranean Sea, just in case everything else wasn’t enough. Slovenia is a paradise for those who enjoy the outdoors. There are also many small cities and villages throughout the landscape, and make interesting destinations for anybody seeking cultural experiences. Its capitol Ljubljana is known for its Baroque and Art Nouveau monuments, and provides many significant artistic and other attractions.

Finland

Finland can provide a true haven for tourists in Northern Europe. As a nation it is decidedly modern, with well planned cities and small towns. This makes the nation extremely accessible, and simplifies the travelling process greatly. That, however, is not the only aspect which makes Finland worth visiting; it just makes it much more attractive. Among the things to see in Finland are the northern lights in winter and the midnight sun in summer. The country stretches far enough North that these phenomena are possible to experience firsthand. Another major natural attraction is the nation’s many lakes. Boasting roughly 188,000 lakes, with plenty of corresponding islands, the country is a great place for people who enjoy water sports. It also offers vast expanses of nature outside of its modern cities that have been preserved. This combination of urban and wilderness make Finland a vibrant and diverse place to visit for any Eurail vacationer.

Get Paid to Travel the World – and Never Hold a Job

July 19th, 2008 — 07:35 pm
travel article
Wouldn’t it be great to travel the world and get paid for doing so? When most people think about traveling, they think of the two outdated ‘travel models.’

1)    Work really, really hard and save a lot of money. Once you have ‘enough cash,’ you travel for as long as you can before going broke and getting another job (or go back to your old one).

2)    Travel as a part of your job. These would be low-paying jobs like working on a cruise ship, as a tour guide, bartender, adventure sport instructor, or simply getting a regular job in an exotic location. A better option, to be sure, but…

How can you travel wherever your heart desires, ‘working’ at something that fascinates you? The answer is closer that you may imagine, and a lot more attainable. No, you don’t have to sell anything to your friends or join a cult. I present to you option 3.

3)    Utilize simple technology to automatically provide people with value. For doing so, you make money.

Sound like fun? It definitely is.

The underground movement of travelers who hold no jobs and ‘work’ out of internet café’s and on laptops a few hours a day (or a week) grows larger every day. Here are some quick ways you can join this group.

•    Film your travel adventures and drive Internet traffic using your videos. You’re taking pictures and videos anyway, so why not make some money for doing so? Did you know you can use sites like YouTube and Flickr to send traffic to websites that will PAY you for the traffic?

•    Write about your travel adventures. Most ‘travel writers’ work like mad to make a few measly hundred bucks selling their stories to travel magazines. Instead, land a high-paying job on Elance or Guru… or better yet, post your stories to your own easy-to-create blog and make a Google Adsense income off of your readers.

•    Become a salesman for the biggest store in the world… Ebay! This is one of the most under-appreciated travel-income methods of all time. Most people think they have to ship a physical product on Ebay… which limits your inventory to what you could fit in your luggage or backpack. Unfortunately (fortunately for you!) this is completely wrong. You can sell digital products like e-books and courses on Ebay and never pay a red-cent for shipping. For physical products, you can also easily setup a fulfillment center that will ship your stuff without your ever having to lift a finger.

•    Drive internet traffic to sites using simple techniques. Can you get on an online forum and answer other people’s questions about a subject? Then you’ve got enough skill to drive internet traffic! If you send traffic to websites looking for customers on your subject, you can get paid for it.

Making an income while traveling isn’t as difficult as it may seem… you just need to take action on a few simple steps that not many people know about. Soon, you will be making more money while traveling than you would if you had a 9-5 job! The only thing stopping you is taking action.

Travel Jobs & How to Make Money While You Travel

July 17th, 2008 — 04:17 am
travel article
Ever had the desire to quit your lame 9 to 5 job, tell your boss to shove it, pack up and start traveling the world?

All of us have had that desire at one point! The thing that stopped you was probably the same thing that stops most people: money.

“How will I pay for my flights, food, lodging, transportation, yada, yada, yada,” you asked yourself.

Don’t let these concerns bother you too much, because there is an underground, growing group of travelers who are utilizing some simple but hidden techniques to make significant incomes while traveling.

Here’s an overview of how we make money traveling and by landing travel jobs:

Underground Travel Income Method #1 – Traditional Travel Job - Hold a job that either a) pays for us to travel or b) is located in the place we wish to travel to. This is the lowest paying and most complicated method of all, but is the most commonplace.

Common jobs that pay for travels are for professional speakers, salespeople, package couriers, flight attendants, travel nurses/doctors, conservationists, cruise ship workers, etc.

Travel jobs located in the places we wish to go to can be any of the above, but also are specific to the location we travel to. There are some FUN jobs overseas that are looking for foreign workers!



Underground Travel Income Method #2 – Travel Writing –
Travel writing jobs for magazines are more common than you may imagine. However, there are LOADS of other ways to write as you travel and make money, including blogging, picking up projects from sites like Elance and Guru, and writing travel guides, both online and offline.



Underground Travel Income Method #3 – Selling Affiliate Products –
Using a simple website, you can drive online traffic to a product that will be of interest to your online followers. Don’t be intimidated by this! It can be as easy as using your very own Facebook or Myspace profile. Affiliate products typically pay 50% to 75%, so you can make a very healthy income for selling just a few objects.

Underground Travel Income Method #4 – Filming Your Adventures – If you’ve got the camera out and you’re taking pictures, why not switch it to ‘film’ mode and make money from it? You simply make a video of your destinations using iMovie or Windows Movie Maker, then use your videos to create a customer base!

Underground Travel Income Method #5 – Podcasting – If filming scares you off or intimidates you, you can make an iTunes podcast. It is easier than ever to get listed in iTunes and there’s a HUGE audience of podcast listeners. Simply talk about the places you visit two or three times a week and watch how your following grows… and how your bank account grows!

Underground Travel Income Method # 6 – Ebay – The common misconception about Ebay is that you have to sell a physical product to make money. Here’s the trick: You can set up a fulfillment house to ship your product (or hire your little sister or the neighborhood kid). All you have to do is create your Ebay post from an internet café and collect the money!

Take any one of these six ‘travel job’ methods, and there are hundreds of travelers all over the world making more money than they would at a regular ‘job…’ and they’re living it up at exotic, world-class destinations. Take your pick, and take action on the ideas here!
