I had a fantastic year of travel for 2010. Did I go everywhere I wanted to? Of course not. I can always rely on my friends to make me jealous with their fabulous trips both near (Manchester, VT) and far (Singapore). Here are 13 trips I wish I took this year… The 2010 Winter Olympics [...]

After a whirlwind 48 hours in Singapore last spring, which included a trip to the world-famous Singapore Zoo, Rachel Sterling and Jeremy Sharff were ready for some relaxation. So they flew to the island of Phuket in Thailand to take advantage of the gorgeous beaches. Here, Rachel tells Travelogged where they stayed, where they ate [...]

When I go on a trip, I like to bring home souvenirs for my family (and, yes, for myself too). I usually like to purchase them at the end so I don’t have to bother carrying around and so that I feel like I’ve seen everything before I commit. Sometimes this works out, and sometimes [...]

I love New York City. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. (Except for maybe Barcelona, London or Rome.) But as much as I love New York, there are plenty of weekends when I just want to get away. All New Yorkers do — getting out of town is a sport we take seriously. I’ve [...]

(photos by Pete and Libby) There's Spanish culture, there's French culture, and then there's Basque culture. Pete and Libby (whom you may remember from their photos of the Winter Olympics and Lindsey Vonn) decided to explore the Basque region in early May.
