EuropeUpClose.com, LLC Takes Travel Blog on the Road

Portland, OR - - Beginning September 13, Bill and Terri Fogarty, the writers of the European travel insider blog, EuropeUpClose.com, embark on a three-week trip that will take them to Dresden, Prague, Vienna, Innsbruck, and Salzburg and Florence, plus a week at a villa in Tuscany. They plan to do a daily post from the road to keep readers informed of what they see and do along with photos of the destinations and reports on hotels, restaurants and sight-seeing opportunities.

“We are traveling through Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic by train and are really looking forward to reporting on how we manage to travel with one suitcase each for three weeks”, Terri remarked. One of the important bits of travel information she gives is how to pack light, which is especially important when travelers are transporting their luggage on and off trains.

The week in Tuscany will be spent with Terri’s brother and sister-in-law in a small town called San Giovanni d’Asso, Italy. Located south of Siena near Pienza, this area is perfect for discovering little villages and wineries. “Sampling great food and wine is part of the agenda. Aside from shopping the wonderful markets, we like to seek out inexpensive family-run restaurants that offer the true taste of Tuscany and pass that information on to our readers” added Bill.

EuropeUpClose.com is designed for travelers who don’t have the time to sift through tons of guidebooks and do hours of web research to find the important destination information needed for a trip to Europe. The site is divided into easily understood categories. “We plan to continue to expand the categories that we cover. Currently we offer such topics as Timely Deals, the place to look for the latest deals on the web; Current Travel News, where important travel information is reported as it happens, and our ever-expanding Destination information” Terri explains. “Our goal is to provide current, reliable travel information and advice that might take you hours to find on your own”
Look for posts from the road beginning September 13.
