Hi everyone,

My name is Alex. As of next week, I will have moved from my favourite place in the entire world, London (and that’s no joke) to Valencia for a few months abroad, pursuing my dreams and the sun.
As I go, I’ll be jotting down things I see, people I meet etc. I won’t actually be sticking them to paper – I’d need large sheets and it’s not cost-effective. Having said that, I might stick my oar in on a couple of free-to-enter competitions.
If you’re interested, you should follow my exploits on Twitter too, @bobdollop.
Anyway, as my mate once said to me, ‘Me dog could whistle cold air faster than’oo finish sentences.’
This goes out to Raoul Duke – I’m coming!
Alex

Twitter is emerging as a simply amazing tool for people who travel. You see, anyone running a blog relating to a destination is almost certainly on Twitter, and is equally certainly running a constant search for people using the name of their destination.
We run a travel blog all about Lanzarote, and we read every tweet that uses the name of the island. It makes great connections for us, and for the people we contact, they get an insider’s view of what to do, where to go and any other information they might need. We’ve even helped out people who have lost passports and credit cards.
So next time you’re travelling, get onto to Twitter and simply post something like “Heading to XXXX next week, any help, any advice?” You’ll be amazed at how many responses and links to great websites you’ll get.
Not on Twitter yet? Maybe now is the time.
