Ahmadabad: An Experiment in Giving An Experiment in Giving by supune
Visiting this place was a once in a lifetime oppurtunity. Everything here is free. You can donate so that the next person after you will have their meal paid for (kind of like "Pay it Forward")! This is a great place to meet young people from different walks of life. Alot of the volunteer groups we met in Ahmedabad hang out here. You will hear some amazing stories. There is a very sweet collection of artwork. You can buy clothes and other... [read more]
Krynica Morska Warnings or Dangers
Krynica Morska: Mind the Russian border Mind the Russian border by evaanna
If you go for a walk on the beach at Piaski, after about 3 km you will see the remains of net wire fencing and the sign "Granica panstwa" (state frontier). Don't even try to go on if you don't want to meet with the Russian border guards as such a meeting could be quite expensive. The same applies to walks along the main road, but there you have a barrier to stop you. [read more]

Two giants in the Travel World come together in beautiful harmony for the benefit of the travel community – and everyone else in the Universe!!!

We staffers at VT were jumping for joy as we recently welcomed the head honchos of our new business partner, TripAdvisor. The expertise of each site is so complimentary that how could we not be ecstatic with this marriage? We will remain two separate entities in friendly coopertition; but will be benefiting from everything that can enhance, but not take away, from the special qualities of each site. TripAdvisor loves the VT concept and community and wants it to remain essentially the same, except for the fact that we will now be able to implement projects that have been on hold (for a long, long time) in our pipeline.

Great things are coming – stay tuned, you won’t be disappointed!

Another future vt member :-)"

In case you hadn’t noticed…

Our community is abound with fabulously talented people - not only the obvious, writers and photographers, but also fantastic artists. Member Hotsauce28 gave us an update on one of the best, “member Katmosphere hasn't been online in the past while because she's been quite busy painting. And this is a write up of an award she's won!”

We have Kathleen’s beautiful work on display in our VT office. It started as stationary, but was so beautiful we put it on the wall.

Congrats Katmosphere – you are unbelievable!!!
