A spin on travel reading

Design*Sponge is a site that needs no introduction, but what I like the most about it is its city guides, like the one to Florence--it makes me want to write in and give my opinion, to try their suggestions and meet up in a shop near San Lorenzo and talk.

What a great way to explore other places, just through reading. They do tons of cities in the USA and almost every country. Whether you agree or not, or want to add things, it's a great starting point to get exposed to other cultures and places.

I have complicated feelings about their posts on Rome and Montreal and Madrid--and that's how you know they got into the meat of things. I love it. I want to go to Bali, Jamaica, Brazil and a host of other places.
