Zanzibar Island General Tips
Zanzibar Island: kids kids by Irine_29
One of the things I loved most during my stay in Zanzibar, was that every afternoon, just before sunset, the kids were waiting for me to go walking along the beach and sheek for shells. They were my 2 shy Mohameds (N.1 & N.2) & the girls that I named all Fatima, because of the name of a little one which I adored: She was a little triangle like shaped scarf in green color, over a pair of skiny walking legs. No more than 5 years old. [read more]
Alaska General Tips
Alaska: countless photographic opportunities countless photographic opportunities by PA2AKgirl
Do not go anywhere without your camera. I live here and always bring it because even if you’re just taking a routine trip to a store or out to eat, you may see something picture worthy. A moose, a wonderful sunset, a rainbow, mountains peeking out from the clouds or anything, really. The whole state is picturesque and it’s difficult to take a bad photo here so always keep the camera within reach! [read more]

The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings

The great thing about travel may be seeing the world through a different lens, but that doesn't mean the view is always pretty. With this in mind, the travel experts at VirtualTourist.com have come up with a list of "The World's Top 10 Ugliest Buildings and Monuments." General manager, Giampiero Ambrosi talks about the selections: "Some of these picks have all the charm of a bag of nails while others are just jaw-dropping in their complexity. Love them or hate them, the list is certainly entertaining."



We LOVE hearing from VirtualTourist members and visitors alike. We frequently get notes just letting us know that you're out there and you're enjoying VT. Very often we'll forward the mail around to the rest of the team, to share the love. Drop us a note, we'd love to hear from you.
