Simon: As a budget traveller I like to hit the road
with a backpack whenever I can. I’ve found www. Hostelbookers. Com a
great resource for booking hostels in advance of arriving at a destination. No
booking fees means competitive prices, and all hostels are rated by others on
the gringo trail, so you get a good idea of what to expect on
arrival. Perth: When I want to read some good travel
writing, mixed in with some pithy comment, interviews and news, I check out
www. Thetransitcafe.com. The writing is very
fresh. Kim: What many people look for online, but
rarely find, is an online guide that tells it like it is without the travel
agents’ waffle. For anyone heading to the island of Koh Chang, Thailand,
www.Iamkohchang.com is a must. Run by an English guy who’s been living
there for a few years, it’s a fun and highly informative look at what the Thai
tourist authority really does call "The Oriental Eden of the
East." Jen: Frustrated by the lack of good and
unbiased information for travel to South and Central America, I have launched
www.ontheroadtravel.com. We provide unbiased recommendations and advice
for independent travelers to the region. We do all the research ourselves and
hire local editors to make sure that you get an "insider’s view" into the local
culture and, more importantly, that it stays up to
date. Frances: www.cracow-life.com is great for
Krakow and other Polish cities. It is easy to use and well laid out with lots of
useful information about what’s going on in the cities. Now
