Hey, a new travel section.

Welcome to the new travel section here. It's just an idea for it might be nice to have a place to share travel experiences, ask travel related questions to a world wide audience, share travel specials and the likes. Show us where you've been, or discuss where you would like to go. Also geography topics are welcome. Let's see how this one goes.

What is the exact idea? To post pictures of trips and make reports like David, or give links to sites or just ask questions :

I personally prefer threads like David's... Pictures (with diaries) of private trips... The Jakarta and Hongkong-Thread is very disturbing here... Too commercial... We already have something like that in the citytalk forum!

Well, personally, I am not sure about the point yet. I spend quite some time browsing through my pictures and compiling a decent report, but I don't know whether it is worth it. So, I'd like to know how you feel about it.

I hope this will become a subforum whit only selfmade pictures. I hate it when people post more than hundred differrent photos from an particular place just to promote it, I think this ruins most of the photo forums. Luckily enough it's not the way it goes in the dutch photo sub forum, otherwise i'd avoid it too.

This subforum must be a subforum where you can discuss youre future trips and vacations. Where you can ask info about staying somewhere and a subforum where you can show your holiday journals.
That would be great if that happened, thats what I made up and wanted to start a thread about.
So I hope this can be possible, I think its the best way for this subforum.

Are there even enough mods to controll this new subforum?
