I was originally planning to be in S. Korea this trip but when a friend canceled due to a family emergency I flew over here instead to explore my family’s roots in Luxembourg and the countryside. This has been an inspirational trip so far, from the people I’ve met to the amazing towns and countryside. Usually when I think of travel I want to visit Asia but now I’m craving more of Western Europe!

    Europe is more expensive than many parts of Asia I usually visit – I always try to stay with locals – either couch surfing or other free homestays. Here’s a list of these organizations:

    David,

    I’ve been reading travelcorner and above the clouds, and I’ve found a treasure of first-hand information. I’m very happy to have reached your page and the team’s blogs for I love reading books of travels.

    It was a surprising coincidence: in the same day I discovered your blog, I was reading that marvellous book of Lawrence Durrell, Spirit of Places, where he writes about Greece, the Provence, etc.He defined himself as a resident writer more than a traveler one, as the resident has more chances to grasp the mentality of the inhabitants.

    I’ve been born in Buenos Aires, but spent my childhood in Viedma, in the argentinian Patagonia; I also lived in Ushuaia; needles to say, that I love reading Bruce Chatwin.

    thank you for joining my blog! May I ask how did you came across it?

    Best wishes,
    Ignacio
