perhaps i’m one of the few pinoys who’ve never really felt the pull to live in the so-called land of milk and honey. visit, yes, but live, uhm, not sure. my sister and her family are off for a 3-week US tour next month, and i’m green with envy, although if it was me, i would probably have gravitated towards the east coast more than the west. florida, new england and the tri-state area. thing is, most of our relatives are on the west coast, though, so that means no freeloading; we’ll have to fork out more $$$ for accommodations, if ever.

i’m no novice when it comes to booking hotels online, but searching for a hotel in such a buzzing city as new york,for example, can be intimidating. good thing there’s the New York City Hotels portal which makes it a tad bit easier. it offers info on the more popular attractions and events in the area, and makes it easier to plan your itinerary and book a hotel in the vicinity. the google maps provided illustrates the location of the hotels and the attractions, roads and neighborhoods in the vicinity. really nifty!

i wish such online hotel booking websites are available for other destinations as well.
