Have you ever seen that dorky guy on public TV that tours around Europe going through the backdoor? OK, it's Rick Steves and I think we can all agree he is a very knowledgeable (albeit quirky) resource. If you have never been to his site before, I highly recommend you check it out. We have used his guide books on several occasions in France, Spain, Italy and England. The Rickster has saved us some serious cash and from certain embarrassment on many occasions.
My partner never goes to a street market without the damn fold-up backpack she bought from his site for $10. She's incessantly bragging about how it folds up smaller than her cell phone.
One exceptionally great area of ricksteves.com is the Graffiti Wall. Full of real user insight, it's always great to get other traveler's opinions. Even if they are a bit crazy at times. As Rick would say, "keep on travelling". JJ
