And others have helpful travel hints or resources I’ve recently uncovered.
If you’re on Twitter already, please follow me! If you’re not, SIGN UP! It’s really a lot of fun.
Due to a limitation in the number of characters you can use for a name, you will NOT find us at twitter.com/thriftytraveling, unfortunately. Instead, our “handle” is thriftytraveler. So please join the party at http://twitter.com/thriftytraveler. I’m just getting started, and it’s going to be a great ride!
While http://twitter.com/thriftytraveler is devoted exclusively to travel, I do have an additional site of my own. It’s located at http://twitter.com/maryvanmeer. That’s my personal site. While occasional travel items might be mentioned, it will include a variety of topics such as Internet marketing, organic gardening, blogging, photography, AND, of course, occasional bursts of enthusiasm over anything and nothing in particular! But I’ll mainly be trying to share links and resources and useful info about a variety of topics. I hope you’ll join me there as well as the thriftytraveler twitter!
