On September 28, I posted an article here on the impact of the current economy crisis and its impact on the airline segment of the travel industry. Today's New York Times Business Section featured a piece called "Travel Industry Shaken by Economic Downturn." The only silver lining for those with any travel budget at all is that seats in premium cabins on some transatlantic carriers are being deeply discounted, as are rooms in some high-end hotels.
I am a long-time travel writer who caught the blogging bug in late 2006. Please join me in my travels -- armchair and otherwise -- around the US and abroad. If you would like to read some of my published travel articles, please visit my website and click on "Articles." And if food (both cooking and dining out) are your passions, please visit Culinary Colorado and Nordic Walking USA, my other blogs.
Travel Babel was named as one of the "20 most inspiring travel blogs of 2007" and one of the "50 travel blogs I can't live without" in 2008 by Christopher Elliott, creator of the award-winning elliott.org. Also in 2008, it was named as one of the 15 Top Travel Blogs by viscape.com
FlipKey.com, dedicated to the vacation rentals and real estate, named Travel Babel as one its readers' four favorite travel blogs.
About Me
Claire Walter
I am a Colorado-based, award-winning travel, food and snow sports writer who was just bitten by the blogging bug late in 2006 and by the Nordic Walking bug shortly thereafter. In this blog, I try to cover a range of topics of interest to both new and experienced Nordic Walkers. I have authored or co-authored some 20 books and am pleased to have added this one to my body of work.
My website features previews of all the books I have written, dozens of published articles in their entirety, a calendar of personal appearances and more.
Culinary Colorado is a Colorado-focused but not Colorado-exclusive blog about restaurants, cooking, food news, observations on the culinary scene, Nordic Walking, an up-and-coming outdoor fitness activity. For tips on bargains, freebiees and deals in the Denver/Boulder area, visit Mile High on the Cheap. You can also follow me on Twitter.
