Feb: travel nonfiction

The Smart Traveler's Passport by Erik Torkells - book is designed to look like a passport - kinda neat. Lots of nice tips, not a lot of organization. I wrote down pages and rewrote the info in my travel notebook. (A to Z author)

Don't Let the World Pass You By by Sara Benson - fun book of reasons to get and use your passport. With a great forward from Phil Koeghan, host of The Amazing Race.

A Woman Alone - stories from women who went traveling on their own. More introspective than I was expecting, with less information than expected, it was still an interesting read.
