Practical travel articles

Packing for Europe
My Europe travel article offers practical advice in a lively, personal style, with a page of annotated Web links for added value to the reader.

Time Out: Berlin
This online guide is taken from British Time Out book series. It combines useful information with lively writing and an attitude that's hip without being self-conscious.

Travel narrative

A Day in Amsterdam
Another Europe travel article that shows how to weave practical advice into a personal (and informal) travel narrative.

Berlin and Prague: Nazis, Jews, stamp collectors, and beautiful women
Philip Greenspun blends historical background with present-day travel experiences.

Love Lost by the Lido
A nice example of a travel narrative on a personal Web page, by Kaitlin Duck Sherwood.

Giving Good Gnocchi
Linda Watanabe McFerrin's article for Salon uses fiction techniques to tell a story that's more about people than about a destination.
