Town and Country Travel Companion

Book excerpt: Journey--and journal--in style! This attractive, portable volume from Town & Country is far more than your average travel diary. Along with space to document seven trips, it features profiles of seven international locations (with hot spots pointed out!) and offers expert advice on packing, taking photos, selecting a cruise, enduring a long flight, minimizing medical risks, and traveling solo. For each trip, there’s room to record memories and impressions, as well as recommended hotels, eateries, and sights. There’s even a mini-address section to save contact information for new friends. Supplementary information in the back of the book--including a translation guide, international dialing codes, and a size conversion chart for clothing--make this an invaluable traveling companion. Fun and inspirational quotes appear throughout, and the elegant package includes a ribbon marker and a bound-in envelope to hold memorabilia.
