Howie Klein is back!! In addition to blogging at Down with Tyranny and running the Blue America PAC, Howie Klein is the most traveled person I know. He was gone for the past three weeks, visiting Thailand. He wrote about it and many of his previous travels on his Around the World blog. Click over to the link and live vicariously through him. Or decide where you want to go after reading his blog, then check out Work Away, and find a place that’ll offer you room and board for some work in exchange!
Note: When I mentioned Work Away on the show today, I couldn’t remember if it was .com, .net or what… It’s actually .info. I did look to see what workaway.com was, and found it’s a site promoting hotel work in the US for citizens of other countries. Something’s fishy there. I’ll have to investigate and let you know what I find….
