Best of the Boards for the week of January 29, 2007



Check out the topics currently being discussed on the BootsnAll Travel Forums:

  • Complete this sentence: “If I never went RTW, I…” Quimby has posed the question, and provided a few answers already. They’re great, including, “If I never went RTW, I wouldn’t check for creepy crawlies in my boots every time I put them on.” So, how would you complete that sentence?
  • Mono loco is back from 2.5 years of traveling the world, and is offering his assistance to anyone who’s interested. He was traveling for 2.5 years without working, too, so the main question so far is, “How did you save all that money before you left?”
  • Most people - and certainly most frequent travelers - have an opinion on this: Where do you like to sit on an airplane? And further, what does said preference say about you?
  • So, you tell your friend you’d really like to go to Pisa. He tells you it’s not worth it. Where does that leave you? Rawjer asks, “Can you skip an attraction just because some say it’s overrated?
  • Those of you who are lucky enough to have traveled for long periods of time may find it a bit depressing to come home, get a job, and then only take two-three week trips. Cherie’s feeling this way, and wonders if anyone else has gone through something similar. If so, how did you cope?
  • Are you one of those people who takes pictures of the toilets you encounter around the world? If so, don’t be shy - you’re not alone. Post your bathroom pictures here!

What is BootBlog?

BootBlog is the company blog of the BootsnAll Travel Network, a company that has been connecting travellers since 1998. Our goal is to inspire, educate and cultivate an organic community of independent travellers. But what does that mean? Well, we love to travel and we love to connect other travellers who have the desire to get out and see this great world of ours. BootBlog will showcase what is going on around the office, around the company and within our community of travellers.

There's gonna be a Bootie wedding!
Those of you who read the BootBlog may remember my recent musings on how online friends become real-life friends. What some of you who read that article may not know is that I heard from several BootsnAll members after it was published who said, "Yeah, that's interesting and all, but we've been doing that for years now." And it's … [Read more]
