    Travel websites can be many things including a high end travel site like Expedia or just a simple blog like VacationsMAX but what most of them do not offer are great suggestions for travel based on your personalized search criteria.

    Things have changed though and an innovative site at GeckoGo.com offers a unique way to find the travel deals you are looking for and most of all the travel plans you really want to make. GeckoGo allows you to search for “where to go and waht to do based on your specific interests” through a simple to use and intuitive interface. In 3 short clicks I was able to determine that in order to see monuments and beach in January it looks like Mexico is the choice for us to travel.

    I was very intrigued as to how this site worked and I think a personalized search experience such as what they offer is what the travel industry needs. It just seems to me like too many websites now sell the same travel services and GeckoGo.com offers something different. If you are not sure about where you want to travel for your next vacation and you need some suggestions or travel ideas than you should visit their site and try it out.

    I bet you you will think the same thing about their site as I do.

    I have some friends in London England that have asked me to visit with them when I get the chance and since we are in the process of planning a new trip I have done some research using a London blog I found online. I have never traveled to any part of England or even Europe before so this would be a major change in travel for us. We are accustomed to traveling in warmer temperatures here in the Caribbean and I am sure that the famous London weather would be difficult for us to get used to. That may make it all the more fun or it may make for a horrible time. Who knows right?

    I understand there is lots to do in London and getting there should not be so difficult for us. The London webzine I was reading has some great information on London including things to do and hotels to stay at. They have a great article on the current situation with london hotels overcharging for rooms. I think if I do go I’ll have my friends sort out some of this for me. If they want me to come and visit so badly they can either put us up or find a place in London for us to stay.

    Any of you have any advice on a nice stay in London?

    I have been considering a trip to another country just to see some new place with the kids. We have some travel time planned soon but no travel plans as of yet. i set the time and money aside to make certain we did make the trip but I have been very undecided about where I want to go. I have considered making the trip just to see some of the historical sites in Mexico such as Teotihuacan or some of the other ancient pyramids there or maybe a trip to South America somewhere like Costa Rica. I have a friend who just went there from Jamaica and he says its much nicer there. He seems to dislike Jamaica after having some hard times here.

    I guess a part of things would be finances. I searched for mexico hotels online and found a lot of stuff available. I kinda prefer taking a locals tour and staying with friends or family but not knowing anyone in many of these places puts me at a disadvantage. I thought about a trip to Cuba and found some hotels in Cuba listed on EasytoBook.com but I don’t think I’ll make a trip there with the kids. I think my first trip to Cuba should be alone so I can get a feel for things before I drag the whole crew along. I understand travel to Cuba from Jamaica is a pretty simple hush hush thing and there is not much risk in getting caught. The Cuban government has an interest in us visiting and they don’t want us to get in trouble for it. I understand you can fly in on a State drivers license or passport and it will not be stamped.

    EasytoBook.com turned out to be a very useful site with lots of hotels around the world. I can visit my buddy Ian and book a stay in some nicer Dublin Hotels at decent rates but i doubt it. He never answers my phone calls so why should I pay him a visit?
