    • How to Enjoy Rio de Janeiro for Free

      Kent says: As winter approaches here in the Northern Hemisphere, summer approaches in the Southern Hemisphere. Rio de Janeiro is an excellent destination for a winter holiday. Stories of slums and deadly gangs of street kids are exaggerated. If you take reasonable precautions you can have a safe vacation in Rio that you will never forget.

    • Paris Sightseeing

      Kent says: No other destination blends history, culture and romance like Paris, France. It is simply unique among all other places on Earth. Visit Paris with a plan, then tear up the plan and wander around aimlessly. Paris never disappoints.

      Simply say "Paris" and people nod with understanding. It is a unique place on Earth that combines the majesty of a colorful history, with the splendor of stunning architecture, with the romance of literature, art and music. The entire city of Paris is a tourist attraction. Sure there are the Eiffel Tower, Champ Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame and Louvre, but you don't have to visit any of those places to experience Paris. Just walk down its streets and through its parks. Sample a baggette with cheese or a chocolate croissant. Sit in a cafe and watch the people walk by. Listen to street musicians. You don't need plans in Paris. Just be there.

      The absolute best time of year to visit Las Vegas is approaching. Most people use their vacation time at the end of the year during Thanksgiving or Christmas. As a result, Vegas is like a ghost town between the holidays. If you plan a vacation there during this time you can have your pick of hotels at a bargain price, can walk down the Strip without being crowded off the sidewalk, and eat at the most popular restaurants without a reservation. If you don't like crowds but love Vegas, plan your trip now.
