I have been looking for travel references and destination ideas. I have searched for travel publications reviews and I was not confident that these reviews were objective. Oh course, the pictures are beautiful, yet this is obviously not an objective metric of a quality experience. My DW and I have not traveled much as we focused on raising our 3 girls, now grown. Our travel agent last sent us to a tourist attraction, though it wasn’t her fault I gave her short notice.
What we prefer is an active, not commercialized, quality (not pretentious, or pampering), and meaningful experience. We like good food and prefer to experience the culture of the locale. Accommodations need not be over-the-top, but clean. It seems that the travel agents and magazines do not address these issues. We are patrons of our museums and they offer trips, this may be a start. If anyone has any suggestions for references, ideas, or sources I would appreciate your assistance.
Thank you, J.
