Often not found in guidebooks, Florence has a fragrant little treasure tucked away through a non-assuming door way near the main train station.  Take a minute out of your day and stop by one of the oldest pharmacies in the world.

By noambit  |  Location: Spain  |  05/30/08  |  Pics: 1
 

    Once in a while  you wander the streets of a European city and happen into a bar or restaurant that for years and trips to come will be "your" spot.  Every time you return to that city you seek out that place, sip a glass of wine, chug a pint of beer or munch on...

Beating Your Budget While You Travel: keeping costs down

By noambit  |  Location: France  |  04/15/08  |  Pics: 0

 Your resolve is strong!  Despite the ever weakening of the dollar you will see Europe no matter what it takes.  Student loans, credit cards maybe even selling candy bars door to door (buy them at the dollar store at 4 / dollar and make a huge profit) are ways to get the extra money but...

Will it be Bullfights or Shakira at Las Ventas in Madrid?

By noambit  |  Location: Spain  |  03/31/08  |  Pics: 4

Understandably there are a huge number of people out there who do not agree with Bullfighting.  It is a bloody sport and comes across as very cruel to the average American spectator.  However, you would be missing out on an exciting, truly Spanish cultural tradition if you pass up the...

The Best Dinner I Have Ever Had In Europe, Twice: seafood spaghetti that i traveled 8 hours to get

By noambit  |  Location: Italy  |  03/28/08  |  Pics: 1

You will have to forgive me for not remembering the name of the place, despite hours of searching the Internet and still not coming up with it but after you eat there it will be easy for you to do.   You may have heard of Cinque Terre Italy. Travel writer

Picking a Pack: what is the best backpack/ luggage for traveling Europe

By noambit  |  Location: Germany  |  03/27/08  |  Pics: 2

Packing for a trip will take longer than throwing things in a suitcase or backpack the night before. Having all the essentials purchased and packed a week or so before your trip will take the stress out of making it to the airport and last minute goodbye phone calls. In fact the first thing one has to...

A Heavenly Hostel In The Hell Of Naples

By noambit  |  Location: Italy  |  03/21/08  |  Pics: 2

Let's face it, you want to see Pompeii but quite frankly Naples is not a city you want to visit.  Almost every traveler I have met on the road has told me just how unsafe they feel in downtown Naples:  The cities lack of landfills has lead to complete stand stills of trash removal and when...

How to plan for and get the most out of a trip for your money

By noambit  |  Location: Italy  |  03/21/08  |  Pics: 2

You can approach the planning of a trip in a number of ways.  For me I narrow it down to where I roughly want to go and then figure out how much it will cost.  From here I can add or subtract locations or side trips.  As I'm currently beginning to plan a trip to Europe...

How to choose a hostel: things to think about while searching for a bed

By noambit  |  Location: Netherlands  |  03/13/08  |  Pics: 0

It is easy to go to hostelworld.com, punch in the city you will be arriving in, pick the first hostel that pops up, book it and cross your fingers.  As one may guess however, this can lead to a stay in a place that is less than expected or downright horrible.  Booking the right place to lay...

Seeing The Eternal City Without An Eternity: rome in a day

  As a result of several miscalculations, one or two misprints in train and boat schedules and the simple fact that some European cities suck you in and leaving when expected doesn’t happen I arrived in Rome with only one full day...

When you’re on the road in a foreign country you are never alone.  Sure you may have flown over by yourself and you may not know the name of that guy next to you at the hostel bar who is way too drunk even for karaoke but you are part of a group.  Your fellow travelers are all there...
