Site Organization and Justification

I've been trying to think of what kinds of pages my "lazy traveler" website would have. Aside from the general home page, about page, and page of reference links, I think I'd like to create pages for different types of travel. Some examples I have from my personal experience are road trips, cruises, or flying to visit friends/family. Staying in a hotel is another option, but being able to crash with friends and family is the cheaper and lazier option (lazy can be cheap in some circumstances). I think my favorite type of travel is cruising, since it is the option that requires the least amount of planning -- travel, hotel, and food are all handled by one entity on a single bill.

Now, I feel like I have to justify my promotion of the vice of sloth: Between work, school, and obligations to family and friends, we all need a break every once in a while. I believe that vacations should be a way to escape stress and not be a source of further stress. That's why I encourage low-stress, lazy traveling.

That’s so true I am doing a travel site also on a recent trip to Ireland. I feel like you have a relaxing vacation like on a beach where you do nothing or a physically demanding vacation because you are trying to fit it all in by seeing all the sites and stuff. I felt like I needed another vacation after getting back from Ireland, but happy for having gone.

Yes. I am so with you. Bed and Breakfasts are ze best as far as I'm concerned. Though Hostiles are a nice and cheap alternative if you don't mind them!
