  • I'm writing a book on the undiscovered Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico. Any ideas, suggestions, PR & lodging contacts, etc will be appreciated.
  • Yes, it's good as we need a tourism board to promote travel here from foreign countries. $10 is nearly the cost of 4 liters (about a gallon) of gas (petrol) in some European countries (e.g. Netherlands), so the price shouldn't put anyone off from visiting the USA.
  • Tripatini Needs Your Opinion: Is the New $10 Tourist Tax on Foreign Visitors Good for the U.S. Travel Industry? Please reply on our Bulletin Board post. Thanks!
  • The International Food Wine & Travel Writers Association is in the process of lining up press trips for 2011. If you are interested in proposing your destination, please let me know.
