Finally, someone who feels about Puerto Vallarta the way I did. At times I almost felt like I must have not visited the right areas. I felt great contempt for this tourist trap. I don't know what it is people love about it, I know it just was a big turn off for me and I don't mind some living in some other touristy areas, I actually lived for six years in a US tourist town, Sarasota Florida and loved it, but, PV, just felt like one big annoying pyramid scheme. PS, I lovvvve Mexico and though Mexico City has been on my list, I didn't make it over there during my past 3 visits to Mexico, but, I'll get there next time I visit the country. Appreciating all the stories you and Brent have shared on your site. Thank you.
Thanks. I appreciate hearing about Bulgaria. My husband and I are planning to go to Europe next summer and once we learned about Schengen we were concerned about where to go. How did you get there? Fly, train, or bus? And do you have any other suggestions for another locations that we can stay for a month? We live in the (hot) desert southwest and hope to be in Europe for a total of 5 months. ~Kathy
I enjoyed reading this until the end. Was it necessary to trash one place? Every place is someone's hometown. You got teared gassed in Turkey but felt the need to trash PV because it was too American.
I enjoyed reading this, thanks. I look forward to traveling when I retire. I can't wait.
Thank you! Mexico City and Bulgaria now get added to our list (and PVR, which wasn’t on it anyway, remains out of the running)

Some interesting choices - thanks for sharing! Makes me even more anxious to get to Bulgaria. It's in our plans for next year.
I really enjoyed hearing about your favourites. I am now madly researching Grimentz and Bansko. Looking forward to hearing Brents.

Love this! Thanks for sharing. We love our national parks as well. Arches was fabulous!
