Book Review: Top 5 Lists of All Things Travel + Giveaway

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.
The Top 5 Lists of All Things Travel is a book written by travel enthusiasts Kristine and Toni. Between them they have visited 19 countries. They love traveling and want to encourage it and they think making lists is fun (I agree, on both counts) so they combined them into one great book! The book contains many lists with things to think about when booking vacations. Where do you want to stay? What kind of amenities are you looking for? There’s even tips on how to save for your trip. This always seems to be the question I get, but it’s always phrased in a rude “but how can you afford all that?” way. (Don’t worry about me and my finances, they are not your problem they are mine and in fact are not a problem at all.)
One of the things I disagreed with though is leaving the camera at home. It does say “unless you are a photo buff” which I guess I am, but still. The thought of people relying on their phones for photos when on vacation just doesn’t sit well with me. (Even though my last trip I had a brand new phone and did find myself using it just as much as my actual camera to “try it out”) They do also list tips for taking great photos with your phone, but I’m still not sold on it. A lot of the tips I was also already doing, but there were certainly some things that I hadn’t thought about before included as well.
The book also has a list of other great resources if you want to do even more research after reading it.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
