Hi! My name is Steve Wilson. In the last fifty years I've done a little traveling. I've vacationed in dozens of cities in the U.S. and over one hundred countries worldwide. For the last few years I've been fortunate enough to spend several months a year traveling outside the U.S. I've experienced a few "journeys of a lifetime," and I feel that everyone should have at least one while still able.

This book will help you travel the world. No matter if you travel as a "conspicuous tourist" or like to tough it out as a "vagabonding transient," this book contains something for you. Even if you're the armchair dreamer, that vicarious wanderer who only gets to see places in your mind, you will enjoy this read if you enjoy thinking about travel.

I'll try to help you understand the art of travel a little better. I'll provide you with some solutions and strategies to help you to:
• Grab the best deals on airfare
• Find affordable lodgings without sacrificing comfort, whatever your budget
• Minimize local transportation costs
• Sniff out the best information on local cuisine
• Determine the ideal times to visit the top locations around the world

My goal is to help you to make the most out of your journey and save you many times the cost of this book along the way. Plus, as we move around the world I'll provide you with a few anecdotes from my own travel experiences.
