Last weekend, I got to be in the Irish Independent! Travel journalist Pol O’Conghaile (which I am fairly sure is pronounced Paul O’Connell, I think at least) did a round up of advice from a bunch of bloggers who attended TBEX, that travel conference I babbled on about a few weeks ago, and he included me!
One of the things I was asked to share was my best travel tip, and here it is: Find a local. A local guide, a local blogger or real resources that locals use. It’s the best way to get to the heart and guts of a city quickly and avoid the tourist traps.
Pol also asked me what I thought were the hot destinations for 2014, so I picked a few that have been lurking on my list lately: Istanbul and perhaps even North Africa. I think it might be time to branch out beyond Europe! (hint hint, Michael!)
Any spots on your travel wish list in the near future? Or anyone planning a trip to Dublin?
