Travel Resources – Information

travelfish.org – An extremely useful site for planning a trip to Southeast Asia. This site has itineraries, recommendations and a large amount of information that will be extremely useful when planning a trip to SEAsia.

wikitravel.org & wikivoyage.org – Wikipedia style sites with an incredible amount of user written information on almost every destination. Great for finding out the recommended attractions, accommodations, transportation methods, and things to eat for any destination you end up.

travelindependent.info – A little long winded and dry but a great resource none the less. Travel independent has information for backpackers and travelers including visa information, the typical tourist trail, weather info, costs, transportation, safety info, etc. I highly recommend this site when planning an independent trip.

Travel Resources – Accommodations

Airbnb – A great accommodation site where individuals rent out accommodations all over the world. From guest room to mansion, boat to bungalow, Airbnb might have the listing to make your get away perfect. (I first used Airbnb while in Brooklyn for new years 2012)
