I am an admitted browsing addict. One of my guilty pleasures is spending hours reading the RSS feeds of travel sites. Sometimes, personal finance blogs get in there as well (as for most of us travelers, that is just as important). I have decided to start posting links to some of the most interesting articles (pertaining to travel) here so if you’re looking for further reading, you can read along with me.

You can expect a “links” post every Monday!

To start things off, over at Wise Bread (the best personal finance blog around) Nora Dunn (who has her own blog at Life Happens) talks about getting international flights for FREE as an air courier. I have read about this topic in a number of different books, and each author seems to have a different opinion about this technique. This girl really has it together though, so I trust her judgement.

Another Wise Bread post, this time from David DeFranza, who I know far too little about, talks about websites related to couchsurfing. We all know CouchSurfing.com, but do you know about AirBedandBreakfast.com? See more at his post.

At Treehugger, which I’m sure most of you know, there was a post a while ago about the world’s only pocket-sized solar lighter. I had to read the title twice to figure out what they meant by that. Doesn’t look practical unless you’re planning on starting full-sized campfires, but it is an interesting concept.

And finally (for this week) recently Tynan, who has the fantastic travel blog (now on pause) LifeNomadic posted on his own blog about electricity in RVs. I personally could care less about having an RV, but the way he explained solar panels and watts/watt-hours/amps/etc in plain English helped me to understand solar systems in a much clearer sense.

Hope you enjoyed these links! Some will be more interesting, some will be less, and if you don’t enjoy visiting some of the posts I filter on a daily basis, skip these posts!
