Virtual Tourist www.virtualtourist.com

This web site is amazing and can have so many uses. Use it for holiday ideas, browsing at random places to find more information, checking up on things to do before you go somewhere or you can use it as a travel journal for your self.

If you love traveling this is the site for you. Set up your own page and put in all the details of places you have been, upload photo's, keep everything written down and recorded so you never forget where you have

Information is split in to so many categories; where to go, what to do, lesser known places to go, local customs and traditions. You name it its on there. This site is so fun of information and its all written by people, for people. I know things like lonely planet and other guide books are as well but they cover the main places so that they sell their books, this site does not do that it just allows people to put on what ever they want.

This can get quite addictive, once you start your going to want to keep adding places on their, which mean you need to travel more, and guess what they can help you with this as well, with hundreds of links to specialist companies and hotels or campsites or anything you want to do on your trip. You can literally spend days on this site.

This site is made ever better by that fact that there are no joining fees its purely there to help people get their travels in to print. This could make anyone want to become a travel writer.
