Imagine my surprise when exploring the wonderful world of LP, when i stumbled across, sorry i mean purposefully located, LP RSS feeds, i then subscribed to the Lonely Planet travelcasts, which are always entertaining and informative!

Introducing.....Global Girl! And while im at it, Thing 6!



Hello bloggers,


Its a pleasure to meet you all(so to speak.) Im Global Girl and im here mainly to take the Learning 2.0 journey, with a side dish of past, present and future travel explorations!

Lets play a game! The above picture is of the last international destination i visited. What country is it? The first person to guess the correct answer in the comments post gets a virtual prize!!! So start guessing!



The award for correctly guessed photo location goes to Yplearning, who not only guessed the country, but also the exact beach! How did she do it???



Thing 6-The Adventures of Flickr!


i enjoyed exploring flickr,especially when i happened upon a 3rd party app called 'Yahoo Trip Planner' which acts as a diary, map and photo album for travellers. It can be found directly at:
