Here’s the deal folks… I’ve created a collaborative Google Map where all of you can add placemarks. Here’s a few suggestions for types of places to add:
- Ben, I have a friend / family member / colleague in _____. They’d be happy to put you up for the night.
- Yo Ben! Last year I went to _____. The city if beautiful and you should certainly check it out!
- Hey Benny, you gots to check out the surf spot in _____. Killer waves bra!
- Ben-san, my uncle’s neighbor’s former roommate highly recommends staying in the _____ Hotel. They have a friendly staff and are close to all the action in town.
- Ben, you dirtbagger, be sure not to miss the excellent climbing in _____. The rock is amazing and the pub down the street has deliciously cheap cervezas!
For those of you without a google account, you can always contact me with the details. Here are some things to consider when suggesting a point of interest:
- GPS coordinates (not required, but helpful)
- Address (Street, City, Province, Country)
- Picture (not required, but appreciated!)
- Your connection (friend/family/colleague)
- Short description about why this is a great place to visit

Ben
I am running/training for a marathon with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and met a woman from Chili. She told me she has LOTS of friends who would be willing to put you up. Let me know when you get there & I’ll send you the connections.
