I get to travel somewhat but not as much as I would like to so some of my trips I really plan out first, sifting through all the best local attractions and looking for the ones I maybe don't know about yet. So I'm probably a cross between a Doer and a Watcher - but a Planner and a Dreamer as well. While planning and dreaming about a trip round Australia's western and northern parts I found a website called www.worldreviewer.com which has a place to create a wish list of places to go - like 43 Places but with more choices I found. It had quite a lot of places and experiences (that's what they're about too) that I hadn't heard about or read about which were recommended by people who had been there or lived there. Not a bad resource for Doers and Watchers... and Wanderers need some impetus to get out on the road in the first place I guess... Very cool way to think about traveler types and make sure you're traveling with complimentary types! Do you think there could be a dreamer category as well?
