I like to visit new places. When I'm not traveling I'm either planning or at least thinking about my next trip. Unfortunately I often find myself spending more time planning my next trip than traveling. I intend to contribute to Wiki travel to help make it a complete world travel guide. Hopefully some day I'll be able to say I added a drop to the bucket that made heavy outdated travel guides obsolete.

Hi there!

me in facts:

 * 23 years old
 * living in Bonn, near Cologne, Germany
 * student of computer science and computational linguistics
 * working part-time as an IT consultant
 * gay ;-)

I've been living near Cologne for about two years now, and I really, really like living in this part of Germany. Bonn is about 20min by train from Cologne, but I know my way around Cologne better than most of my colleagues who have been living in Bonn their whole life. I'll be extending the article about Cologne every now and then, and hope to write a piece on Bonn too eventually.

Feel free to write me on my talk page!

Regards, Felix.

My name is Feng Yue. I was originally from Beijing,P.R.China. After lived in Beijing for 26 years and got my Master of Architecture degree from Tsinghua University,I moved to Hong Kong and worked in a British design firm for one and a half years. Before then, I have already traveled through most provinces of China including Tibet, and some other countries including France,Italy,Australia and Singapore. The continents where I stepped on added to four when I worked in Antarctica as a member of Chinese Antarctica Research Expidition from November 2003 to March 2004 in Zhongshan Station. Since June 2007, I came to my fifth continent,North America,studying architecure and urban design in Harvard University in Cambridge.I am looking forward to visiting South America and Afica soon before I turn into thirty.

Except for touch all seven continents, My traveling interest focus on world cities in different developement levels and urban culture. The reason I join Wikitravle is not only to share my travling experience and knowledge with more people, but to contribute a Chinese version of Wikivoyage.

I’ve been living in Birmingham for roughly two years now and think it’s great, but nothing beats the freedom of travelling around the country. I have to confess, I’m a bit of a train lover. It really is the best way to get to where you’re going and see some of the country at the same time – just hop on, sit back and relax.

As I work for Takethetrain.co.uk, I’m pretty well placed to give you the inside track on the best deals for getting about by train, too. Check my Facebook wall every now and then and I’ll let you in on the cheapest fares and good deals when I spot them on our website.

As I have a love for train travel, it really bothers me when I hear about people paying too much for tickets – a view that’s shared by my employer! We feel pretty passionate about making the whole process a lot less complicated, so we’ve agreed not to charge any commission (at all) on tickets, always offer you the cheapest fare to get to your destination and to be the most open and transparent ticket website out there!

Feel free to drop me a message if you need any advice and I’ll get back to you on my lunch break!

Adios!

Üdvözlet! I am Feri from Hungary. I joined Wikivoyage in order to find some information on Morocco, where we had planned to go in 2009. I am here mostly to collect information about places I want to travel, and so far it has been much more than sufficient. I managed a one-week trip by car to Austria and Italy for my family in summer 2011, and I decided to pay it off to Wikivoyage. May any questions arise in you in connection with Hungary or Hungarians, feel free to contact me on my talk page; hope, I will be of help.

I am pretty enthusiastic about sharing some travel tips (sites, eateries) based on my experience. I will try to categorize them somehow.

Budapest
Actully, this is the place I live. I cannot tell the names of hotels I stayed at, but can mention one or two friends have lived in. To be honest, I am pretty unsure where to begin this part. First of all some basic details, as of 2011 I live near Budapest, the capital city of Hungary, thus visits to any other places of higher importance - including my hometown, Nyíregyháza - are considered trips, travels or excursions and have their place here therefore. On the other hand I would like to talk a wee bit about Budapest as well, as it might be the city of the most interest to you as a tourist in Hungary. It is and has always been the cultural and administrative centre of Hungary in its recent form and size ever since 1920. Formerly it shared this title with a number of other cities, namely Bratislava (Pozsony at the time) or simply Vienna (a little background knowledge of European history might be of help to understand the governmental structure of the Hapsburg Empire and later the dualist state of Austria-Hungary which is indeed a very important heritage of ours). Budapest is so charming for a tourist but every day... Ppl, mass, BKV (it may take hours to get to another point of the city)... During the Soviet occupation of Hungary in the socialist communist era, as a result of centralisation Budapest gained even more population and an even more important role in the Hungarian administration - this phenomenon is not unknown in the commnism in the least.

But the castle is enchanting, I like the old city, the banks of the Danube, the bars, the Margaret Island in the heart of the city, the zoo, the Heroes' square, the whole 16th district and a lot of other places.

1997, Greece
It was my first journey abroad. I was 4 so I don't remember many things. I know we lived in a tent, ate lots of fish and the sea was beautiful.

2001, Slovakia
I went skiing to Slovakia as a member of a school-organised camp. I went with my mum. I don't know the exact place I just remember we had to walk a lot.

2003, Slovakia
We went skiing with the family and friends. My experiences were more times better. It was good. But I was so young...

2004, Tunisia
It was my first plane journey. We travelled with Tunis Air. We lived in Djerba island in hotel Abu Navas Djerba. I liked being there. I tride riding a camel. We made a trip to the desert. We left the island by ferry. We visited the Mos Eisley city wich is known from the Star Wars. We saw a cave-house, collected sand from the desert. We went home through the Roman Road which was built in the ancient Roman Empire and works until today. In the hotel the food was delicious, we could try what real Arabic foods are like.

2005, Egypt
It is my first trip I really remember. We went by a plane of Travel Service. It was a three-hour-long trip to Hurghada. We lived in Sea Gull Beach Resort. I remember I wondered that everything is written in three languages and with three different kind of scripts (Arab - Arabic; English - Latin; Russian - Cirillic). There were a lot of Russian people at the hotel. We took an underwater trip so we could wonder the coral reef what was beautiful but unfortunately we were taken to an artificial part of it. Of course we made a whole-day trip to Cairo where we saw the Egyptian Museum which was beautiful although it was very dirty. We had lunch on a ship called Fryday's (?). The food was grilled chicken with salad and the most delicious ice-cream I've ever eaten. In the afternoon we visited a papyrus store where we bought some papyrus and our names were written with the ancient Egyptian scripts. Lastly went to the Great Gizan Pyramids which were really nice and great. However I didn't know there was't any glamour in the Gizan pyramids, only in Luxor. No prob, I already know :)

2006, Romania
I won a trip to Transylvania. It is a very kind memory to me (and for every Hungarian) because this part of Romania belonged to Hungary before the 1920s and even now lots of Hungarians live in for instance Harghita or Covasna county (actually these two countis are rather Hungarian than Romanian, you can't find anyone who doesn't speak Hungarian). It was beautiful. The Carpatians are fascinating. They have wonderful little salty lakes here in which it's very refreshing to take a bath. But on the other hand it was a bit foreign as although Szeklers or Székelys say they are Hungarian, they've always had an own culture, customs, etc. (I mean Székely gates or just the dialect). Just a few places to mention: Sovata (Szováta) - where we lived Praid (Parajd) - next to Sovata, there is a salt mine Farkaslaka (I don't remember its Romanian name) Arad - where we visited the 1848 Freedom Fight memorial Deva (Déva) - there is a home for mostly Hungarian orphans we gave presents to And a lot of places I don't remember or just don't write here as I don't want to make this list longer:P

2007, Spain
Notice that I have never been on the continental part of Spain, I was in the Canarias. We lived in the Hotel Lago Taurito in Turito, next to Mogán on Gran Canaria. The hotel was in a beautiful bay. And it was the first (and last) time I've seen the ocean. I love big waves. The cuisine of the hotel was delicious. I remember my brother ate Guaspacco (Is my spelling correct?) every day.

2009, Austria
It was a great camp from June 28 till July 4, organized by the father of a former class mate of me. We traveled by bus to Wolfgang lake (Wolfgangsee). We stayed in the youth hotel of Strabl on Ischler street. We visited the gymnasium of Bad Ischl every day. We saw Sankt-Gilgen, Bad Ischl, Strobl, St. Wolfgang, etc. We've been all around the lake. We had a one-day trip, too, when we visited the secong biggest waterfall of Austria (don't remember its name) and numerous other lakes. It was wonderful, I want to go back, just hope the weather will be much better next time.

2009, United Kingdom
Already fixed. By couch through Austria, Germany, Belgium and France to Barnstaple or -stable, Cornwall. It is organised by my school. We are going to live with local families. In the end of the excursion we will spend a day in London. I start today (July 10), we are going to travel with no stop until tomorrow evening, when we take a few hours with sightseeing in Brussels. On Saunday I'll arrive. I arrive home on the 23.

2009, Croatia
It was our family vacation in 2009. Actually, the first one I reservated. We stayed in an aparthotel in Vinjerac which is called Apartments Niko, which was recommanded by a friend and his family (actually including my German teacher who told me to speak a lot of German with the staff because they speak it with a great fluency - he was right). The aparthotel is a part of a family business. The staff were two sisters who were waitresses and receptionists, a father who was a waiter, a mother who was the chef, a Slavonian lady who's the mom's best friend and was a cook, a bartender, a dishwasher, and a couple of maids. The biggest surprise was that everybody spoke at least one other language than Croatian. I was absolutely satisfied with everything. The staff's style is unique. When we arrived, we found no one at the reception, but after 2 or 3 minutes we found a maid, who was absolutely kind and rang up one of the sisters. She arrived immediately. She introduced herself and shook hand with all of us and showed us our room. We went down to have lunch. (The family enterprise also included a restaurant.) There we met the papa, who gave us the menu and for a big surprise: it was Hungarian (right, sometimes a bit funny, in one case totally rediculous, but simplified a lot). In addition, he said he understood the name of the dishes in Hungarian, (but if we have question, he asked to speak German). I chose a natur cutlet, but my gourmet family's choice was much more exciting. My brother ate blue mussels, my mom ... and dad ... . The meals were served by the other sister we met there. She was also kind, and maybe a bit more talkative (which means we talked a lot - I learnt a very important new German word: Ausrede). By the way, she lives opposite our room. The dinner was plentiful and delicious which meant a soup or some other hors-d'œuvre, a well-prepared mixed salad, and wish with potato or meat whixh you chose every day, and a dessert which was either fruits or some cakes made by the best friend of the mum, who has lots of Slavonian recipes, some were by her great-grandma. Next day, we found out it's the usual amount, so we better omitted lunch.

2010, Austria
From June 27 to July 3. It was planned to be the last sequel of the camp series in Germanophony I've visited for 3 years, because my teacher was about about to retire. The location of this camp was Saalbach in Salzburg district. We traveled by bus, with the Hungarian coach company Pizolit Busz Hungarian, English, German, Russian . We stayed at (Jugendhotel Saliterhof German, English, Hungarian ) by family Altenberger. There were bedrooms for 2 to 8(?) persons - bunk and single and double beds. We had half board at the hotel which consisted of a smorgasbord breakfast - a choise of bread, buns, homemade marmalades, honey, and numerous types of salami, ham, other cold cuts and a large variety of cheese. We had lunch packs for lunch made from these materials. The dinner usually contained soup or some other kind of entrées, a main meal with a lot of salads that were chosen by us and some kind of dessert often made of selfgrown or self-gathered materials. The most notable places we visited inculde the Waterfalls of Krimml, the Hochalpenstrasse built by Adolf Hitler, both in Austria, the St. Bartholomew's Church in Berchtesgarden on an inlet of the Königssee in Bavaria.

2010, Slovakia-Hungary
This bike tour was organised by my Hungarian and Geography profs. My class was the axis of those representing the recent students of my secondary. We took a train on the 2nd of August from Budapest Keleti Station to Győr (Raab in German), Hungary, from where we rode around 30 km to Lipót, where we were lodged in out own tents in a camping. Lipót is famous for its bakery, which is now found all around Hungary, which has granted the same quality their products for a very long time. The next day we cycled north up to Bratislava (known as Pozsony in Hungarian and Pressburg in German). We crossed the border at Rajka, and we took cc 75 km that day. Our camping was in the outskirts of the city - probably the biggest camping I've ever been to - and had a lot of taverns in it. The next day we went to the castle of Bratislava and saw the downtown. Later in the afternoon we travelled to Dunajská Streda (Dunaszerdahely; Niedermarkt), where we stayed at the camp site of the bath Slovakian, Czech, Polish, Hungarian, English. As a visitor of the campsite we were granted free entry to the bath as well. Some local friends of mine later took us to a very cosy tavern in the outskirts of the town, near the bath. They served a wide variety of food as well as drinks. As for Slovakian shots, Šligovica and Borovička are maybe the best choice, but they are rather famous for their cheap, quality beers such as Zlatý Bažant, or somewhat less known: Topvar. Next morning we went to visit the hydroelectic power plant of Gabčikovo (Bős; formerly known as Beš in Slovakian), and later we carried on with further 110 km of bicycling to Komárom (first we rode through the Slovakian part of the citym Komárno (Révkomárom; the entire city was formerly called Szőny in Hungarian and both sides are still called Komorn in German)) where we had an accommodation in a camping outside the town. Unfortunately due to the 70 mm of rain in two days all of our stuff were soaked inside and outside our tent. We lingered for another day in the town, where we saw Europe's only horse theatre and a lot of other things in both sides of the city. Unfortunately the fortress system of the city was closed for the public due to some kind of oldsmobile organisation, so we saw a lot of exciting cars there at least. Afterward we continued travelling on the Slovakian side, following route 63 to Stúrovo (Párkány; Gockern). On the way we visited the Roman castle of Iža (Izsa) known as Castellum Romanum. We stayed at a camping in Esztergom (the Hungarian side of Stúrovo, known as Ostrihom in Slovakian and Gran in German) right on the banks of the Danube. In the evening we visited a number of pubs in both city centers.

I was born in 1974 in Bologna, where I live and work.

I like to travel, especially self-organized holidays with no fixed plan and armed with just a travel guide.

I discovered WikiTravel in the summer of 2007, back from a long car trip in south France and Spain. Through that travel I thought: I should keep a little log with the beautiful places I've seen and a few tips and then publish it on the internet to share it with others... Well, I didn't write that log, but I found this wonderful project I hope to help in time!

General
I grew up in Colorado, USA, where I originally aspired to become a minor pagan fly fishing deity. The international travel bug caught me early, probably as a predictable side-affect of having fallen in love with a series of foreign exchange students. First there was that Swedish girl...ah, but I digress.

I studied abroad myself in Denmark during college, then worked for a cross-cultural consultancy in Boulder for several years after school where I was surrounded by dozens of "citizens of the world" who'd been literally EVERYWHERE. They nourished my fledgling interculturalist tendencies and provided both the connections to and invaluable support for my first expatriate assignments to SE Asia:  a year in Singapore followed by two years in Bangkok, then numerous projects elsewhere since.

Thus, I've been fortunate enough to fish and dive and wander my way through much of North America, Europe, SE Asia and Oceania courtesy of various multinational corporations. Since 2000, I've been doubly fortunate to be partnered with a beloved wife who shares (or exceeds) my passions for seeing new places, learning new things (mostly about ourselves, since that's the first function of travel), and of course, sampling new cuisines. We ditched our respectable jobs and wandered the globe for all of 2003.

But while the travel has been great, by far the greatest benefit of working one's way around the world lies in the meaningful relationships you're able to establish with folks you'd never meet as a tourist. I still can't think of a finer way to learn about a culture than to sit down at a table and solve common problems together -- all the better when there's food on that table. To me, those are the secrets to bridging cultural divides: work together, play together, eat together.

Interests
Regional: Asia & Europe, mostly. Not that North America isn't interesting; it still poses arguably the biggest cultural conundrum for me...knowing thyself and all. My latest literary interest has been Africa, though...and Cuba. All things in due time.

Intercultural: intercultural communication and the stages of cross-cultural adaptation; also, the practical impacts of history and propaganda on cultural evolution and contemporary intercultural dynamics. And of course, cuisine.

Gastronomical: we tend to eat a lot of Vietnamese food for reasons obvious to those who know us, but we don't discriminate much. As for Asian cuisines, we tend to seek out Japanese, Korean and Thai places before Chinese or Indian, but we'll grab Lao and Filipino food whenever possible. We've fairly well-versed in Nigerian and Ethiopian specialties thanks to some dear friends, and we eat Cuban & South American grub whenever we find it.

We eat plenty of 'American' food as well, and I do love my BBQ. That said, we tend toward the trendier so-called 'fusion' places when we eat non-ethnic, mostly because it gives my wife good ideas for new concoctions to try at home. But for all that foodiness, I freely confess a sentimentality for Lucky Charms, and my wife needs her regular doses of Texas-style Chicken Fried Steak. There's just no accounting for taste.

Musical: it's hard to pigeon-hole this one. My mother was a Lutheran church organist, so I grew up on Bach. Somewhere along the line I got interested in folk music and bluegrass, then Irish / Celtic music (including a stint playing fiddle in a band called No Fixed Abode in Bangkok), and now rap and hiphop...all in addition to those 80s hair bands, college alternative, my beloved a cappella, music from my nephews & niece, my South African stuff and our Latin dance music. I count my iPod among my best friends, but sometimes the shifts from Brahms to Johnny Cash to Sonia Dada to Cesaria Evora to the Nylons to Edgar Meyer to Blink-182 to David Bromberg to Vienna Teng to Eminem to Ladysmith Black Mambazo to Christy Moore can be a bit painful...chiefly for my wife, me thinks.

Fishing: can't do without this category, can we? Fly fishing, mostly freshwater...trout & steelhead & salmon throughout North America, New Zealand & England. I've also tangled with bass in Texas and Australia, sebaru & toman in SE Asia, and a few saltwater species. Need to spend more time in the salt.

Other Avocations: single malt scotch, SCUBA diving, competitive volleyball and obtuse phraseology.

Testimonial: A Born Again Wikipedian (read: Wikivoyageer)
All these years....and just this week I've finally discovered my true calling in life.

It happened like this: there I was at work, and somebody asked me a question that I didn't know the answer to, so I quickly slipped over to Wikipedia, found the answer in under a minute, impressed the hell outta everybody in the room, then went dutifully back to work.

But I left the Wikipedia page up -- that was my first fatal error.

When I got back from the cafeteria with my plastic fork and to-go lunch, I went poking through all the screens I had up...and something on that blasted Wikipedia page caught my eye. One link led to another, and to another, and -- and that's when it happened: I saw a mistake.

If only it had been something simple and common, like use of "affect" where it should have been "effect" or perhaps an "it's" where it should have been "its". No, it was gross and obvious, the sorta grammatical 'thorn in the flesh' that really annoys an anal and arrogant wannabe wordivore like me, even to the point that I forget what I'm reading and what I'm supposed to be doing -- which, at this point you'll recall, was working. Guilty as charged.

I hadn't edited a Wikipedia page before -- come to think of it, the thought hadn't even occured to me. But it hit me, "Hey! This is open source. I can edit this page. I can fix that mess. And while I'm at it, that second sentence is somewhat awkward...now where's that edit button?"

Blast those Wikipedia people, they make it awfully easy, don't they?

Things went downhill quickly from there. I made a second fatal error: "Hmm...I wonder how much they've got out here on Fly Fishing?" Not much, as it turned out -- but after three hours of poking at it during boring meetings, there's considerably more out there now. This could get ugly.

At my little Lutheran grade school in Denver, two classes shared a single room and a single teacher. So when your 6th grade math session was finished, you'd be assigned some work to keep you quiet while the teacher stepped over to the other side on the room and taught science to the 5th graders. For better or worse, most of that work came easily to me, so I had a considerable amount of free time on my hands.

I discovered the encyclopedia set somewhere around 4th grade, and I made sure that I sat next to the bookshelf every year after that. Some of the teachers worried about what I was reading -- and with some justification: let's just say that I was more familiar with the anatomy pages than with the articles on algebra. Some of the kids gave me a hard time about reading the encyclopedia instead of the Hardy Boys, but I suspect that those kids grew up into the folks who today think me strange for preferring The Economist to People. It didn't stop me back then, and, alas, I'm even more arrogant about it now.

But now I see that things have come full circle, although I must admit that some surprise accompanies the belated discovery of my true calling: all my life I've been a frustrated encyclopedia editor. You see, I've never been smart or dedicated enough to become qualified in any one area to write a real encyclopedia article on it -- but dammit, I'm definitely verbose enough.

And now, thanks to Wikipedia, I have finally found my ideal vocation. Hallelujah, I'm a born-again Wikipedian.

My heart settled in Ukraine

Ask me, what I think about travel to Ukraine. Ask me, how often I think about her! Lately I do it constantly. I must make a decision. I am ready to make it.

That morning, a few days before my travel to Kiev, I decided to take care not only about business part of my journey. I was looking through the sites of acquaintances and my attention was caught by a picture, from which a very beautiful ukraine girl looked at me. Cherry-brown eyes, black tresses. Magnificent breast at a thin waist. «Slavs now also use silicon?» - I thought. However, even with the amendment on modern possibilities of digital photo processing, a ukraine girl was very nice.

Now I laugh each time, remembering the moment of meeting in a Kiev airport. I could not say a word for a long time! An original turned out to be better, than photo!

Alesya was with little daughter. We were walking about Kiev apartments, she was telling me about its monuments, about those places where she liked to be. In the afternoon we had a dinner in a summer cafe in the Navodnitskyi park. Then we were resting on a bench in the shade of trees, and her daughter was playing beside. Suddenly she ran to the mother, snuggled up to her and looked in her eyes. Alesya got a large shawl from her bag and covered the girlie with it. So this is it why these tempting forms appeared! She suckled a child! I was finally subdued.

We crowned in the Andreevskaia church. The swan song Rastrelli – this is the most beautiful one among the temples seen by me. I suddenly began to notice, what a beautiful city Kiev is. I was there earlier plenty of times and did not notice this splendour. Age-old churches – masterpieces of slavonic architecture, enormous parks-preserves.

It took us more than year to process different documents, but still couldn’t overcome a bureaucratic barrier. Alesya gave the birth of my son. He has my light hair and her cherry-brown eyes. I made so much efforts in order to be with them together, but until now I am forced to see them only during short visits. Once, looking how the flight bar of Kiev air-port disappears under the undercarriage, suddenly I caught myself on a simple to madness thought: «Do I really need to fly away? Isn’t my home here now?» Yes! I want my son to grow up among the picturesque of landscapes Kiev accomodation, I want him to speak melodious Ukrainian language of his mother, and I want us to be able to spend our week-ends on a background of wonderful crimean nature. And when he grow up, we will hike in the neighbouring mountains.

It remained only to think over the pereorganization of business. But I will decide this question.

Hi travellers!

Having my roots in southern germany i feel as kosmopolitan as probably most of you who travelled a lot. I like many places in the world, preferrably the warm and sunny ones, ie Jamaica or [Thailand]]. I love to talk to people and so i learned to love languages, it's easy to become able to talk to the majority of world's people if one can speak english, spanish, portuguese and arabic - the last three i really have to improve to reach that goal.

Arabia is for example one of my favourite areas, having been to Egypt and Marocco, the people i met there were ok and i like them for their lack of superflouent politeness. I was in Western Australia, Laos, Malaysia, Mexico, Miami, Europe almost completely - Andalusia the most often cause my grandma has a nice house there near the beach :-)

I want to go to South Africa, Iraque, Peru, Brasilia, Russia, China, ehmm... everywhere to be honest :) and i work on my philosophy of being a Rolling Stone even having a family, i work on convincing them of the beauty of foreign countries and people and will start travelling after a meanwhile three-year break because of caring for our two babies; hopefully also our older daughters which my wive brought with her get not to sticky to germany in the next time.

I'm not sure if and how much i can work on the content in wikivoyage, just was in the mood to look for some beach fotos and decided to surf here...

Have a nice day, whereever you are!

Dear Wikivoyage user,

due to the recent developments at Wikivoyage, I have decided to leave the community and to join the guys at Wikivoyage.org that created a fork of the German Wikivoyage in December 2006. They founded an association in order to create a democratic, independent and non-commercial (and ad-free) travel wiki. So far its German version has made good progress, overtaking the WT/de site by far. I am also busy helping to translate articles about the basic roules and so on into English, so that we can create an English version soon. Help is very much appreciated! If you would like to get some more information about Wikivoyage, do not hesitate to visit the Wikivoyage General, the international page concerning all (current and future) language versions of Wikivoyage or write a message on my discussion page.

I am really sorry that I had to leave WT, because I invested a lot of time and effort into this project. But with current developments, I feel that I should devote myself to a project free of any non-community influence. I am grateful that I have met many wonderful people here, all passionate about traveling and willing tos share their experience and I hope to hear from one or the other some time.

Best wishes,

Felix Gottwald

Boys, lets hit up Cannes festival on our way south May 11-22:

MusicFestivals

This one is in croatia June 21 -22:, this one is timed well because we plan on being south here.

This one looks dope in Denmark early july:

And this:

Problem is, with Bryce and I leaving in July, the bigger festivals are mostly North in late june, early july meaning our trip south is cut short substantially. Meaning if we try and hit these, Greg and Mike will have to return north and then travel back south.

If you are on the hunt for nice activities while on holiday in South Africa, why not thinking of a paragliding tandem flight or introduction course here in the heart of the Garden Route. You could enjoy the few of beautiful lakes, mountains or beaches. A full license training course can be achieved in around 14 days from start. It gives your holiday a different perspective. You will find plenty of first class or budget accommodation here which will make your stay unforgettable. It's flytime for Paragliding

Intro
Hello Reader!

After working at Wikipedia for over a year I started thinking about an realisation of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy wiki-style. But then I discovered Wikivoyage - which is in fact what I wanted to create.

Since WikiTravel is still in his very early developement-stage I'll try to bring in my expiriences from Wikipedia helping to improve WikiTravel.

If time allows it, I will also enhance lots of articels mainly about Austria, Italy, Slovakia and more.

Located on the western coast of Tokyo Bay directly south of Tokyo, Yokohama Practice page (横浜) is the second largest city in Japan and one of the cities most used to seeing foreigners.

Understand
Yokohama was the first port opened up to foreign trade after the opening of Japan in 1854. At the forefront of the Meiji restoration, the first train line in Japan connected Tokyo and Yokohama. However, Yokohama was devastated by the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and again by the firebombings of World War II, and never really regained its prominence. It remains a maritime city to this day and retains an international flavor.

 * City of Yokohama

 * Naka Ward Office provides webpage and free tourist maps in English.

Get in
Yokohama is located only half an hour away from Tokyo, and effectively forms a part of the giant conurbation.

By plane
Yokohama does not have its own airport. You can reach Yokohama from Tokyo's two main airports.

Some Narita Express trains from Narita Airport go through to Yokohama (1 1/2 hours, ¥4380). Limousine Buses run frequently from Narita to the Yokohama City Air Terminal (YCAT) (1 1/2 ~3 hours, ¥3500). The cheapest access from Narita Airport is to take a Keisei train to Nippori, then change to a JR Keihin-Tohoku Line train for Yokohama (about 2 hr. and ¥1540).

The Keihin Kyuko line (Keikyu line) is the best route from Haneda Airport to Yokohama (25 minutes direct, 30 minutes with connection, ¥470).

By train
The overwhelming majority of visitors to Yokohama arrive from Tokyo by train. A multitude of train lines connect the two cities at roughly equal prices (around ¥200 one-way), but some of the more convenient options are:

 * Tokyu Toyoko Line (東急東横線) from Shibuya to Yokohama Station. Some trains on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line run through to the Toyoko Line, which in turn runs through to the recently-opened Minato Mirai 21 subway line (see below).  A trip from Shibuya to Yokohama takes as little as 24 minutes on the fastest service; Chinatown, the terminus of the MM21 line, is another 10 minutes away. Up to eight kyūkō (急行) and tokkyū (特急) trains per hour. In the year 2012, the Toyoko Line will link to the Tokyo Metro Fukutoshin Line subway, allowing trains to continue north to Shinjuku, Ikebukuro and into Saitama.

 * JR Shonan Shinjuku Line (湘南新宿ライン) from Ōmiya, Akabane, Ikebukuro, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ebisu and Ōsaki. Established in 2003, this line allows for easy access to Yokohama from west Tokyo. Roughly four trains per hour, reaching Yokohama from Shinjuku in as little as 30 minutes. This line will have no major competition until the Toyoko/Fukutoshin services join together in 2012.

 * JR Tokaido Main Line (東海道線) from Tokyo and Shinagawa stations (both on the Yamanote Line). Departs every 10 minutes; more trains during rush hour. About 25 minutes from Tokyo to Yokohama. Note that Commuter Rapid Service (通勤快速) and Shonan Liner (湘南ライナー) trains do not  stop at Yokohama Station.

 * JR Yokosuka Line (横須賀線): A less-convenient alternative from Tokyo Station and Shinagawa. However, it is the route of choice if coming from stations east of Tokyo on the Sobu Rapid line, such as Tsudanuma and Chiba, as most of these trains continue onto the Yokosuka line. About 30 minutes from Tokyo to Yokohama; about 75 minutes from Chiba. Departs every 15 minutes or so from Tokyo; more trains during rush hour.

 * JR Keihin Tohoku Line (京浜東北線) from Nippori, Ueno, Akihabara, Tokyo, and Shinagawa Stations. This train stops at more stations in Yokohama than the Yokosuka Line, including Sakuragicho (桜木町), which is within walking distance of Chinatown. It is also a convenient route from stations north of Tokyo in Saitama prefecture. About 35 minutes from Tokyo Station to Yokohama Station. Departs every 5 minutes from Tokyo; more trains during rush hour.

 * Keihin Kyuko Main Line (京浜急行線), or Keikyu for short, from Shinagawa and Haneda Airport. Most trains from the Toei Asakusa subway line continue onto the Keikyu line. Departs every 10 minutes from Shinagawa (more trains during rush hour), with the fastest train reaching Yokohama in only 18 minutes. Note that Keikyu WING (京急ウィング) trains, which run on weekday evenings, do not stop at Yokohama.

Shinkansen trains go to Shin-Yokohama station instead, a few subway stops away from the main Yokohama station. Alternatively, take the shinkansen to Shinagawa and change to the Tokaido, Yokosuka or Keihin Tohoku lines. If your final destination is Chinatown or a the harbor area, taking one of the non-Shinkansen trains listed above is likely to be faster.

Minato-Mirai Line
The Minato Mirai Line (みなとみらい線) (Japanese link), opened in 2004, is a direct extension of the Tokyu Toyoko Line. Connection with the lines is at Yokohama Station, and the line itself has five stations: Shin-Takashimacho (新高島町), Minatomirai (みなとみらい), Bashamichi (馬車道), Nihon Ōdori (日本大通り), and Motomachi-Chūkagai (元町・中華街), terminating at the posh Motomachi shopping street and the second largest Chinatown in the world. The line’s stations itself are worth seeing, especially Minato-Mirai Station itself, where you are able to see straight up to the very spacious entrance hall (7 floors in all) of the Yokohama Landmark Tower, the tallest building in Japan.

Bashamichi station is with artifact bricks and hosts the remains of the first western style bank of Yokohama. Note also that Bashamichi (literal translation: horse carriage street) was the first street in Japan to have gas fired street lightings, which were re-installed lately. Bashamichi Station is surrounded by historical buildings, built only a century ago, but for Japanese standards are a true catapulting into westernization. Thus all buildings remaining (partially rebuilt after the heavy bombings of WWII) are protected as “historical – cultural national treasure.”

Nihon-Ōdori Station is similar to Bashamichi Station. Nihon-Ōdori (meaning Japan Avenue) is a two lane-two way avenue, which back then separated the living quarters of the foreign delegation and Japanese. The line runs parallel to the Keihin-Tohoku Line, but due to its massive expenses in keeping the designer-class stations running, the fares are rather pricey but definitely worthwhile. The line runs through the very historical parts of Yokohama, when Japan opened up towards the Western civilization. Many history-related museums of Yokohama are dotted along the line, and to attract further tourists, the line offers a one-day unlimited ride ticket (¥450 for adults, 1/2 price for children).

Get around

Yokohama is not a very automobile-friendly place, especially for foreigners. Public transit and walking work best.

By train
The Minato Mirai 21 subway line from Yokohama station down the harborfront to Chinatown is the best method of accessing the main tourist haunts. The main subway line is useful primarily for transfers between central Yokohama and the Shinkansen station. JR Negishi Line (根岸線) is also available for Chinatown and Minato Mirai Area. All Negishi Line Trains with the blue line are direct service via the Keihin-Tohoku Line. For suburban areas, Yokohama has a subway and extensive commuter rail lines that crisscross the city from every direction and to all neighboring cities.

By boat
A "sea bus" operates between JR Yokohama station (east exit), Minato Mirai and Yamashita Park, and is one of the nicest ways to get around on a sunny day. The fare is ¥340-700 depending on the distance.

On foot
Central Yokohama is comparatively compact and the Chinatown/Yamashita Park area is best explored on foot.

See

 * Chinatown (中華街 Chūkagai), MM21 Motomachi-Chukagai station, . Yokohama's Chinatown is the largest in Japan and dates back to the Opening of Japan in 1859. These days it's unabashedly touristy, but there are plenty of Chinese grocery stores and places to buy a cheap cheongsam dress or jade knick-knacks.

 * Bay Stars Stadium. Located in Naka ward. A short walk from Chinatown or Kannai station, this is probably one of the most fun places to watch a baseball game in Japan. Known as the Bay Stars Stadium, the Yokohama Baseball Team of the Central League, the Stadium itself was built on the remains of the Cricket Ballpark of the last century for the British delegation. The Bay Stars Stadium is an open roof stadium with natural grass, very rare in Japan, which prefers to man-made grass to save on costs, and the entertainment boasted throughout the games is trying hard, and doing a good job, by Japanese terms, in trying to have each game hosted at the "home ground" to be as American as possible.

 * Yamashita Park. On the waterfront, adjacent to the ferry terminal. Don't miss the statue of the "Girl With Red Shoes". This is also a good spot to see fireworks.

 * Marine Tower. The largest onland lighthouse in the world. It is located in Naka ward. Currently closed to the public until 2009 pending change of ownership and renovation.

 * Hikawa Maru. This passenger liner made 238 voyages across the Pacific to Seattle and Vancouver between 1930 and 1960, and served as a hospital ship during World War II. Currently closed to the public until 2009 pending change of ownership.

 * Sky Walk. An observation platform attached to the Bay Bridge. To get there, take a bus in front of JR Sakuragicho station. If you cannot find the correct bus, ask for help from the Tourist information center located right in front of the station. However, the bus trip takes quite a while and there is nothing more to see than the view of Minato Mirai from afar.

 * Landmark Tower, MM21 Minato Mirai station. The tallest building in Japan is located in the new Minato Mirai 21 district. The observation platform on the top 69th floor provides good views (admission ¥1,000). The elevators are said to be the fastest in Japan. For a classier experience, try the cocktail lounge on the 70th floor (¥1,000 cover, drinks ¥1000+ each) or eat dinner on the 68th (see below).

 * Sankei-en Park (三渓園) . 35 minutes by bus from Yokohama station. Located southeast of Naka ward, this is a traditional style of park and known as Teien (lit. "set park") in Japanese.  Opened in 1906, this large park (175000 sq.ft.) has many Japanese traditional buildings, 13 of which have been designated as national heritages.

 * Yamate (山手). This is the neighbourhood where foreigners settled and still settle. You can make a pleasant walk from the Italian garden near Ishikawa-cho station to the French park near Motomachi Chukagai station. The walk will take you along some nice houses that were previously owned by rich foreigners. Nowadays, these houses can be visited freely. A nice cakeshop can be found here as well. The foreigner cemetery is also along this route and houses a small museum with some pictures of the Motomachi shopping street in the old days and some more cartoons how the Japanese saw foreigners.

 * Baby Aquarium It is near the Yishichyo station and in front of Yokohama Park where parents can take their children to. There are many baby marine lives. Nowadays, children have only little chance to get close to the nature. As that, we should increase the chance to take them know more about any living things.

 * Mazu Temple It takes five minutes from Yokohama Station. The last time when I went there, there were not many people it is built not so long. As I know this temple in Taiwan is very famous because it is efficacious. This kind of place is really quiet and when you feel stressful it is suitable for you to go.

Do

 * Yokohama Cosmo World, just across the water from Minato Mirai 21, is a small amusement park which boasts the Cosmo Clock 21, a 112.5m Ferris wheel which doubles as "the world's largest clock" (the 60 arms double as second hands). The park also has two roller coasters, a log flume ride and several other attractions. Admission is free but the rides cost ¥500-700 each.

Buy

 * Minato Mirai 21 (みなとみらい２１) A futuristic city district built entirely on reclaimed land. If you like high-end shopping, then this is the place to check out. For a slightly less expensive shopping mall experience, try Yokohama World Porters  located on the other side of Cosmo World.
 * Motomachi (元町) is a small fashionable shopping district located near Chinatown. Get off at Minato Mirai line "Motomachi-Chinatown" station or JR line "Ishikawacho" station.

Mid-range

 * For Chinese food the obvious choice is Chinatown (中華街 Chūkagai), which has over 200 Chinese restaurants. Snacks are sold on the streets, but most restaurants in the area are quite expensive (expect to pay ¥1,500 for a decent lunch) and the food has been toned down to suit the Japanese palate. One of the most popular foods in Chinatown is Nikuman (肉まん nikuman), or bread filled with pork and vegetables, which are sold by dozens of stores and vendors.  Chinatown is the terminus of the Minato Mirai 21 line.

 * Shinyokohama Raamen Museum (新横浜ラーメン博物館 Shin-Yokohama rāmen hakubutsukan). Shin-Yokohama 2-14-21, . Paradise for noodle lovers, but not just because of the (Japanese-only) exhibits of the history of instant ramen noodles: the centerpiece here is the basement, which contains a recreation of 1950s-era Tokyo done in incredible detail, complete with operating branches of 10 famous ramen joints.  Expect to queue and pay at least ¥1000 for a bowl, but if you really love your noodles, it's worth it.  5 minute walk from Shin-Yokohama station (on the #1 subway line). Open from 11 AM to 11 PM daily, admission ¥300.

 * Chano-ma, in Aka-renga park in Minato-Mirai. There is a large floor about 60cm up where you can lay down with blankets and some pillows like a living room.Italic text

 * Manchin-Ro, it is located near Yoshimoto Baby Aquarium. It is best to take the Keihin Tohoku Line and get off at the Ishikawa station, and it only take 5 mintues to get there. It is not only supplying delicious food, but also it is really very cheap which only need 1,500 en for you to get full. During lunch time it is running as a kind of self-servie restaurant, but you do not need to get food by yourself and just order the food wanted from menu then they will serve them just finished to guests.

 * Tachibana, it is located near Higashihakuraku station in Kanagawa word in Yokohama city. Wanko-soba restaurant, which is Japanese noodles served in small bowls to have eating competition at restaurant.

Splurge

 * The Landmark Tower has Japanese, Chinese and French restaurants on the 68th floor, where you can enjoy excellent food and unparalleled views of Yokohama and Tokyo. But the luxury doesn't come cheap: dinner at any of these restaurants is around ¥10,000 per person.

Drink

 * Palm Bar And Cafe  Hodogaya Eki East Gate tel +81/(0) 45-712-0227. AKA the Digital Bar by the locals - A small trendy bar with a full array of top shelf liquors, bottled beers from 500 yen and daily drink specials from 420 yen makes it an inexpensive watering hole.  English music selections with a large screen TV plus free internet makes it a great place to relax after work.  Located 4mins from Yokohama Stn on the Yokosuka Line. Also bar snacks and pretty decent pasta from 900 yen. Open Mon-Sat. 19:00-2:00. 045-712-0227. http://www16.ocn.ne.jp/~kabu-fun/

 * Windjammer  Toraku Building 1F, Yamashita-cho, Naka-ku, tel +81/(0) 45-662-3966. A classy jazz bar on the edges of Chinatown run by a dapper American expat who loves to put on a show for his customers. Bands play downstairs most nights and there's a large screen for those on the second floor showing the action below. The decor is decadent and there's a chocolate fountain with fruit for dipping. Open 5.30pm-1am Sun-Thu, 6pm-2am Fri-Sat. Music cover 500yen, drinks from 800yen.

 * Downbeat  Miyamoto Bldg. 2F 1-43 Hanabusacho, Naku-ku 231-0052 Sakuragicho. Another jazz bar, but this one features an extensive record collection, a "record menu" and a foreigner friendly staff. Request a song out of the menu and the owner will put it in the queue.

 * Ishikawacho, 4-168 Sekiuti Real Estate Building 2, B1F. One of Yokohama's hottest, and oldest, hip hop clubs. DJ's spinning R&B, Reggae, and Hip Hop. Special events throughout the month.

 * Summer brings the beer gardens : both Luminè Department Store (near Yokohama Station) and the Star Hotel sport the rooftop variety, or there's a real garden next to Yamate Jubankan.

 * HOGS HEAD. Irish/American pub. Address: Naka-ku Tokiwa-cho 6-77, No 2 Hiyoshi Bldg 1F (中区常盤町6-77第2日吉ビル１F). If you like the Windjammer, you will like this place too. Very Japanese, they tried it to perfection. The pub is trying hard to look as Irish/American as can be and is doing a very good job. The bartenders know over 200 cocktails and the “financial damage” per drink hovers around Yen1,000. Basic food, pasta, pizza and snacks are also available. Unique about the bar is its size, which can be classed as rather large in the area of Bashamichi, Kannai, where small, tiny sized bars are common. There is no live band, but the music jamming out of the speaker systems throughout the bar is Jazz and the bar itself is very quiet and emphasis is placed on enjoying your drink. Hogshead proud sales pitch is the long bar counter with the respectful collection of whiskeys, brandies and other alcoholic delicacies proudly shelved behind it. The bar itself accepts reservations for larger groupings under (045) 641-4746.

 * Benny's Place, Ishikawacho 1-25 Mitsubo Bldg. 2F, tel 045-671-0818 (just off the big intersection in Motomachi). American-style sports bar complete with baseball memorabilia, cable TV, darts, and a friendly owner who'll gladly tell you about his days in the U.S. Navy at "Yah-kohska". And the biggest hamburgers served this side of the Pacific.

 * Oriental Café, 2-16-4 Minamisaiwai, Nishi-ku, is a small sized diner which plays continuously house music and the interior décor is in line with the music it plays. For an easy night out and on budget (in this country being less than US$100.00) this place is rather attractive with its unique décor, its simple menu and plain but basic selection of beers, cocktails and wines. Tel: (045) 311-4640. Access, Yokohama Station plus 10 to 15 minute walk along the Shintama River, diagonally across the “Hamabowl” Bowling hall.

Budget

 * Kanagawa Youth Hostel . 1 Momijigaoka, Nishi-ku, Yokohama, tel +81-45-241-6503. 10 min walk from Sakuragi-cho JR Station. Single room for 2980¥ + 600¥ for non-members.

Mid-range

 * Washington Hotel . 5-33 Choja-machi, Naka-ku, tel +81/(0)45-243-7111. A serviceable but quite pricey middle of the road hotel with airconditioning and high speed internet in every room. Close to JR station and easy walking distance to Chinatown. Single from 9200¥, Double 16,300¥.

 * Shinyokohama Prince Hotel is the cylindrical skyscraper right outside Shinyokohama station, where the Shinkansen (新幹線) super-express calls (aka bullet train). A rather quiet corner of Yokohama, it is well connected with bustling Yokohama by the Yokohama Line (横浜線), or the municipal subway (市営地下鉄) and various municipal city buses (市営バス). Only ten minutes away it is an ideal place to stay with mediocre quality whilst saving money. The Prince Hotel is one of the largest chains of hotels in Japan, run by the behemoth company Seibu. Foreigners registering with the homepage member area enjoy additional reductions, but only if you register and apply PRIOR to arriving in the country. Prices range between ¥11,000 and ¥19,000, depending on room class and number of people.

 * Hotel Monterey Yokohama is located in Yamashita Park and it has view of Minatomirai and Bay bridge. 6-1 yamashita-cho, Naka-ku, Yokohama-city. It takes about 3 minutes from Motomachi-Cyukagai station to get the Hotel. 3 minutes walk to Yokohama China Town and Yokohama doll’s house (Ningyou-no-ie). Standard doubles from ¥5300.

Splurge
The three main hotels in the Minato Mirai area are the ultimate in local luxury, and occasionally offer their rooms on sale at bargain prices.
 * Yokohama Royal Park Hotel . Takes up the mid-section of the Landmark Tower. Standard rates start at ¥31,500 (single) or ¥36,750 (double).
 * Pan Pacific . Located in Minato Mirai, operated by Nikko Hotels. Standard rates start at ¥40,000.

Name's Frank and I live in Zion National Park much of the year. I am an avid hiker, climber, canyoneer and backpacker in Zion and the surrounding area.

Projects
Basically I enjoy Zion National Park and any of the recreation areas near it including Bryce Canyon, Cedar Breaks National Monument, Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. I also spend a lot of time at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. Even though I live in Zion much of the year (when working there seasonally) I often stay in places on the east side of the park during the parts of the year when I am not working including Mount Carmel Junction and Kanab. This year I have spent time working in Bryce Canyon. I need to get back on here and get some of my favorite places up to star status!

Where I've been
I have traveled quite a bit in the United States and Canada, but I am most familar with Southern Utah and Northern Arizona. I spent a good deal of my life in Las Vegas, Nevada including going to school at UNLV. My favorite place other than Southern Utah is the Hawaiian Islands. I enjoyed the out of the way places on Oahu like the Jackass Trail and Goat Island.

Fraveler is the alias for Dave Johnson, avid traveller, writer, and adventurer from Dallas, TX.

Background
As odd as my name might sound, it's actually a combination of family names (Fred and Dave) combined with traveler into a new name. Although I've spent most of my life in Dallas, TX, over the last 5 years I"ve tried to get out and travel to other destinations on the globe as best as I could.

I just returned from a year in Europe, where I spent six months living and working in Edinburgh, Scotland, 4 months in Barcelona, and the rest travelling to many points in between. Before that big trip, I wandered over to Spain for a study abroad program in Toledo. In the midst of that trip and a few others during the summers, I've wandered around Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Switzerland, Italy, France, Belgium, and Germany. However, there are so many more places I hope to visit one day, because I like to think that the once the travel bug bites, the itch never goes away.

I am founder of the Travel/Tourism platform Yabbedoo.com, a patform that guides travel related businesses into the i_future. Based in Geneva and growing fast, this is one of my most excited projects I have done so far.

I was born in 1974 so I consider myself still as a young entrepreneur. I started to sell at the age of 12, when my father had Open-Door days. I was selling the garden furniture stock.

My grandfather Eduard Van Lierde always told me that if you work hard you can reach everything you want. Ever since, his thought is with me.

One day my father came home with an IBM PS2 computer. I remember the argue between my parents as in that time those home computers where very expensive. From that moment on the IT virus hit me. When my father sold the company, I decided to move my studies to IT.

After graduating, I started as an employee for an international company but very soon I found out that being an ‘employee’ was not my future or goal. Thanks to a very good friend, I received my first position as IT manager at the age of 24. Meanwhile I created a Point-of-Sales system and sold it all over Europe.

Many business challenges came, some stayed and some are gone. Every adventure was a success, not always money wise but I learned from every situation and used the experience in the next one.

I am very proud of the partners I can work with. It is not always easy to find the right people, but I guess I am a lucky man. (Even from the ‘bad’ partners I learned something: ‘how not to do it’) You can only reach your goals when you have the right people to help you!

The journey isn’t finished, many ideas and challenges will come and I will post regularly about it on Twitter, this blog and in many other ways.

Travel Technology: I am the founder of Yabbedoo.com [10]. Yabbedoo guides travel related business into the i-Future, in a way it is cost & profit effective. We create a membership who solves the following questions - Are you catching up with the latest trends online? - Or is it going too fast? - Any idea in which technology to invest first? Blog Roll:

I have only just started, have not yet read most style-manuals, etc, but I'll try to focus on biketravel, maybe bring a cyclist's perspective to some regions.

Looking forward for your comments.

Hello FreeFrom5!

Welcome to Wikivoyage. Please take a sec to look at our copyleft and policies and guidelines, but feel free to plunge forward and edit some pages. Scanning the Manual of style, especially the article templates, can give you a good idea of how we like articles formatted. If you need help, check out Project:Help, and if you need some info not on there, post a message in the travellers' pub.

However, your contribution to the Main Page was not appreciated by others and promptly reverted. Please read the Main Page guidelines. Please also be aware that SPAM links tend to get added to http://wikivoyage.org/bannedcontent.txt and may be forwarded to http://chongqed.org/. This will reduce the google pagerank of the links you posted. -- (WT-en) Huttite 06:44, 31 Jan 2005 (EST)

User:(WT-en) Friedjoff

I just returned from a longer journey to Canada and New Zealand to Marburg, Germany. During the journey I decided to start a projekt just like wikivoyage, now however I'm here and would like to take part. Because my english (writing) is quite poor, I would like to help particularly in the german wikivoyage. First I will have a closer look to this site and contribute my experience made in Canada and New Zealand.

User:(WT-en) Friedpez

Introduction
Welcome to my profile! I'm a graduate of the University of California at Davis and currently reside in Southern California. I've traveled to many countries, including Canada, Mexico, Iran, France, Belgium, Tunisia, Switzerland, Italy, and Spain. Domestically, I've seen many western and eastern states and have visited almost a dozen national parks.

I speak English and Farsi (Persian) as native languages. While in high school I studied French and received a BA in the language from UC Davis (although, it is hard to stay current with French when living in California!). I received a BS in Community & Regional Development from UCD as well. Currently, I am learning Spanish.

Wikivoyage is one of my favorite websites for travel advice because it's written and constantly updated by users from all over. I have substantially contributed to the pages on Upland (my home town since 1992), the Inland Empire, and Palm Desert.

User:(WT-en) Frog One

Frog One is Tom Croke, an Educational Consultant http://www.familylight.com who travels about the country on business and visiting family. I am originally from New Cumberland, PA, near Harrisburg, and have lived in Michigan, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. Current home is in Greensburg, PA, forty miles east of Pittsburgh. As a child I was a frequent visitor to New York City, making a hobby of understanding the transportation systems there back when the subway cost five cents, the 1-9 train was the IRT Broadway local, and it cost $15 to fly home to Harrisburg (and as a twelve year old, I could handle all my own travel without being restricted by silly "unaccompanied minor" requirements).

I have hopes that the Wiki sites on the web will become the dominant reference points for quick information.

User:(WT-en) Fulton House

The Fulton House, built in the late 19th Century, features an East Coast Cape Cod design. Built in the late 19th century, the house was originally a bordello situated on a log raft in the Willamette River, adjacent to what is today Willamette Park, only a block away. A century ago the house was lifted, placed on round logs and dragged by a team of to its present location. Our name, The Fulton House, derives from the small town of Fulton, which was annexed into Portland, Oregon many decades ago.
