		<description><![CDATA[The Independent published their list of 50 Best Travel Websites last week. At the time, I was off exploring Misiones, northern Argentina, so this is a belated catch-up. As some readers have pointed out on the Twitter, it&#8217;s frustrating that the online version isn&#8217;t accessible as a straight list and instead you have to click [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, I made a little contribution to  Guardian&#8217;s Top 10 Solo Travel for Summer and it got me thinking about solo travel once again. To be honest, this is not something I do very regularly. The thinking about it part, that is. Travelling alone has never bothered me. In fact, I like it, especially when [...]]]></description>

That was the question that the Guardian was asking at the weekend. It was an interesting debate – featuring travel writers Jan Morris and Pico Iyer – among others.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve said this before, but I really can&#8217;t emphasis this point enough: Couchsurfing.com is fantastic for language learners. And not just for hosts/guests. It can be a godsend in your home town too and it needn&#8217;t involve a single couch. I have raved about Couchsurfing&#8217;s Buenos Aires forum before (see: Top three ways [...]]]></description>

It was certainly a diverse trip in terms of accommodation, spanning everything from one night&#8217;s couchsurfing in a lovely family house in an outlying suburb to a night in an ultra sophisticated boutique hotel in the city [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is Couchsurfing bad for local travel? Well, this is a new conundrum. Sort of. Couchsurfing has, of course, always had it's critics. And so it should. There is no 'perfect' way to travel. Everything has pros and cons. And I've always been keen to tackle those belonging to couchsurfing.
