| The following is a list of useful links that I had posted here up until 2005. I'll put more relevant ones up soon.

Favorite Travel Related Sites
- ricksteves.com
- Rick Steves' Europe Through The Back Door (ETBD) site has lots of great travel links so rather than re-type them all, I just included this link. Why re-invent the wheel? FYI, I use his guide books for all my European travels and would never leave home without selected ripped out pages. TIP: never take an entire guide book with you, just rip out the pages of the countries or areas you'll be visiting and toss them away when you're done.
- ETBD's tips page
- This is another great page on Rick Steves' site. It gives tips for everything from packing to transportation.
- oanda.com
- Pretty good currency converter.
- world.altavista.com
- Translate words, phrases, or entire web sites into different languages using AltaVista's Babel Fish translator.
Happy Surfing!
