When I was a wee junior in college and traveling around Europe on a shoestring budget, I brought along Rick Steves. His travel philosophy had a huge impact on my own during those impressionable years, and a recent article in Salon.com reveals that we are still in tune regarding our worldview. He's such a dorky (according to Salon, Mister Rogers) type guy, I forgot how savvy he really is. Of course, it makes sense if you consider how much time he spends with people in other countries.

Remember the "handy headless statue" in Rome? :-)
And the rice gelatto we got every day we were in Florence, even though it was December and so cold we were warming ourselves with the electric handryers in the hostel bathroom :)
