OMG RICK STEVES!
Rick Steves is coming to Austin in November!! As some of you know, I am a Rick Steves nut - I love him, I love his show, I love his sense of humor, I love his guidebooks, I love his blog, etc. etc. etc. I really do think he's part of that traveling spirit that Ryan and I try to embody - go local, be an explorer, and budget doesn't mean staying in a hostel. It's about being smart and balancing priorities.
He's coming to Austin, TX and will be at Bookpeople on November 16th. This is so great! How neat!!
Tschüß!

When you go see him, will you ask him to please hire a real map artist? That was our biggest issue with his books and maps. They are not very accurate. And he makes a good income off of all of us budget travelers!

@melissa - LOL, I might need to keep that one to myself. Fodors wasn't any better - their Berlin subway map for 2006 didn't show the Hauptbahnhof that had opened that year. We were so lost because the station didn't exist anywhere and it's huuuuuuuuge!
I work for Rick's publisher, and also live in Austin. I hope you will attend the event on Sunday. Rick is a great speaker and this event should be awesome! Also, this is his first time speaking in Austin! Thanks for supporting Rick and his travels.
