Travel Radio and Being a Guest on Travel Planners


It seems strange sometimes to be looking out my office window and talking about a faraway destination over the phone knowing that it is getting heard in many places. I love doing travel radio shows and doing them with Kevin and Sue Mc McCarthy on Travel Planners is always fun. They are upbeat and ask the best questions. Best yet they are avid travelers themselves.

Today my segment was about Marrakech and Fes Morocco and was heard by their affiliates in Florida, Illinois, Missouri and even the Netherlands. Max met the McCarthys on a trip to Malaysia and turned me on to the show. In turn I introduced Max to the Around the World Radio folks so we both get to ride the radio airways frequently. It just amazes me that from a small hamlet like Cottekill NY or a town like Deerfield Mass our views on destinations from the other side of the world are heard. Then again GoNOMAD’s readers are from every corner of the world.

New York Post's Web Picks


The New York Post came out with their Best of the Web, on Tuesdays travel section and came up with some new ones that I found fun. Being a foodie I really liked www.chow.com, it’s filled with food related travel and blogs. It gives you something to chew on. A good site for finding low fares is www.Airfarewatchdog.com just happens to be where the Post gets its info for the Best Fares column. If you’re heading to a place where dollars or euros haven’t taken over use www.com/ucc for money conversion. Stop by www.gonomad.com and give us a try also.
