Hi Gennaro, Your blog is truly awesome, you are an amazing artist (incredible photos!), and my hometown (St-Louis, Senegal, West Africa) is on the “World Heritage List”. Last but not least, I’m also following you back on Twitter

@Alison – The dart idea is taking a big chance, but it’s also fun. And nerve-racking.

Fun post on how to choose a travel destination. Not sure I could do the dart at the map, but that would be very interesting.

[...] discovering how much Uganda has to offer, why then is Uganda not a tourist hot spot? Well, I definitely met tourists while traveling around here, but why isn’t Uganda on the tourist [...]

@hhan – So many places, so little time. Tell your friends to enjoy.

@Traveler – Sounds fun. Takes a little guts…I like it.

I think that the best way to pick your next travel destination would be to spin a globe and stop it with your finger.

Just in time – my friend was talking to me yesterday about where to take a vacation in the U.S. – he wants to stay here. I started listing places that I liked and places I wanted to go but didn’t really know how to advise him.

@Kristi

That would be a fun way to do it. Set everything up in terms of dates, but be spontaneous in terms of location based on a last minute deal. Good point.

@iWalk

Coupled with things like Counch Surfing that may be possible. At least for a very low cost as transport and food will cost a bit.

I heard somebody travel free with the help of Twitter. Why not try?!

I always thought it would be fun to do something random when picking a travel destination on a budget. Just schedule time off to travel, save up, and then a few days before, look online and find the best “last minute” deal available, and pick that location. Then, instead of having a really planned, structured trip that you might have been in the mood for at the time you booked it months before, you have more of an adventure where you can do anything you feel at that moment.

@Carla

Twitter can be very helpful. I use it for tips and to give out tips when asked. It’s always important to ensure your health before deciding on any destination. No reason to take a risk. Plenty of great places out there.

I will definitely use Twitter and chat with people to find ideas and advice. Unfortunately, I need access to a medical facility with specialists within reason so just going anywhere is not an option – at least for now. On the other hand, I don’t I want to limit myself to specific locations all the time either.
