Our Own Digital Voyages

Wikivoyage: is a down the rabbit hole website for anyone jonesing to travel.  It’s worth a visit the next time you’re thinking about traveling somewhere or just daydreaming about an adventure. Wikivoyage is Wikpedia but for travel, a communuty-editable database of locations and associated tips for anyone visiting them. This is a relatively-small site, which means that there are some quite interesting niche recommendations you can stumble across, but it’s also a good opportunity for you to share what you know about your local area or some place that you love to visit with a group of likeminded strangers on the internet. It’s simple to join and become a Wikivoyage editor.

Of course, the first thing that I did was check out the pages on my two favorite travel obsessions: Iceland and New Zealand. But then I started hitting the random button and spent an hour traveling the world.

    I was amazed at how much information is stored on Farnborough- a town I know only by reputation. Down the rabbit hole indeed!

  2. Thanks, I was not aware of this sounds good. I was curious and looked for Paris. Lots of good info. Scary, but correct what they included under stay safe – Danger for identifiably Jewish people!!
