travel: interesting finds online

Travel has been on my mind for months, and with that, all I want to do is talk travel. Click on photos to be redirected to some of my finds this week:

Couple of years ago, I was in Milan and was very disappointed to see the famous Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II under construction. I couldn’t get a single photo of the magnificent space without some sort of scaffolding, or sign or any indication that it was under renovation. So good news is, it is now complete. The sad news is this year I am not going to Italy.

Every chance I get, I walk into a bookstore at home and while travelling. I guess that’s the author in me. The sad thing is, in San Francisco we are left with a handful of mom-and-pop bookstores, and that makes me feel sad. On the positive, Architectural Digest has compiled a list of bookstores around the world worth seeing. My favorite from the list being the one in Santorini, Greece.

Iceland has been on my list of places to travel for years and I hate that I haven’t made an effort to go, always ending up traveling through typical places in Europe. Anyway, here’s an amazing find about a secret swimming pool in Iceland. Would love to hear if anybody’s been there.
