What I’m Reading: April 23, 2010

The Wander Project: Latest post


Computer Security, Expat Aspirations, A Twitter Party, Travel Underwear and Cambodian Hookers….


Your money and computer on lockdown Anil over at foXnoMad gets 2 shout-outs for solid info on choosing a bank and securing your laptop while traveling— two items that have been on TWP’s  “to research” list for a while. Thanks, Anil.

Because underwear is important Brooke at Brooke vs. The World reviews her unmentionables on tape and weighs the pros and cons of Ex Officio’s travel underwear. Stay tuned for the guy’s version from TWP (because not all boxer-briefs are created equal…)

This one time in Cambodia… Like all great stories, the latest from Johnny Vagabond begins in a bar. It progresses naturally enough to heartbroken expat addicts, cheap opiates and even cheaper hookers. Who doesn’t want to read about that?

Next week, I’m in! When I awoke this morning to find my twitter feed full of #TNI tweets, I had no clue what that meant (Give me a break, I’m new here). If you missed it, too, you can catch a summary of last night’s Traveler’s Night In over at Adventurous Kate. For the record, the answer to number six is Brooklyn’s Prospect Park. Designed by the same guy who designed Central Park, it’s in the world’s best neighborhood and is completely devoid of tourists.

As if I didn’t struggle with this enough already Heather Carreiro shares the ten cheapest cities in the world over at Matador; I’m seriously considering becoming an expat in Beunos Aires.

  1. Thanks for the mention, dude! I would SO move to Buenos Aires, too!

  3. Do it! I’ve never been to Buenos Aires, but I was tempted during my research for that article. Strangely though, Dushanbe is the one I’m most drawn to.

  6. @Heather: Surely you can convince Matador to foot the bill for some in-the-field research in B.A. next time ; )

  8. Sure thing, Anil. Outdoor/adventure activities and gear are my forte, not so much tech and gadgets; I’ve really been enjoying your site and I’m learning a lot!
