If you could embark on your ultimate dream vacation, where would it take you? Picture yourself strolling hand in hand through the romantic and historic cities of Europe, where every cobblestone street whispers tales of the past. Or, perhaps you'd find yourself in awe of the breathtaking natural wonders of Alaska, surrounded by towering glaciers and majestic wildlife.But wait, there's more! How about immersing yourself in the crystal blue waters of the Caribbean, where the sun-kissed beaches beckon you to relax and unwind in paradise? The choice is yours, and the possibilities are endless. I have cruise deals on ALL three destinations. Share your dream destination in the comments below and let's embark on this journey together!

Online travel agencies provide convenience and a wide range of options, yet it's important to realize that they are not actually sellers of travel. This means that the hotel room you just booked was actually purchased in bulk by companies like Priceline or Orbitz - you fill in the blank. Even worse, imagine being all set for your vacation, ready to pay, only to receive an error message stating that the dates are no longer available. Consequently, you have to start the booking process all over again. While it may seem like you're saving money by bypassing the middleman (or woman, in my case) and booking travel yourself, in reality, you could end up paying more. What do you like/dislike most about booking travel yourself? Questions/comments.

I started this community with a clear goal: to assist people in reaching destinations they never imagined they could afford. For me, traveling is like living out the adventures in a captivating book. As a child, I adorned my walls with images of exotic places torn from magazines—destinations that seemed like distant dreams back then. I invite you to make your 1st post. Title should be: (your name)was here-ya know like you're writing it in sand/snow-Stacie was here...you get the point. Share with us where you've traveled or where you dream of going!
