About the Book
"Design a unique vacation with 100 alternatives to more predictable, expensive, and over-crowded destinations"--Book Synopsis
Design a truly unique vacation with 100 intriguing alternatives to more predictable, expensive, and overcrowded destinations. Let's face it. These days, many of the world's most beloved places have become expensive and overcrowded, making their celebrated allure that much harder to enjoy. But fear not: Here Not There helps you create a more robust, off-the-beaten path vacation by revealing 100 alternative destinations to the standard travel playbook--as well as expert tips on when to visit, where to eat, what to see, and where to stay. In this surprising collection of lively travel itineraries, you'll find authentic, unexpected, and rewarding destinations of a lifetime to add to your bucket list, including:- A trip to Quito, Ecuador, instead of Lima, Peru, for iconic architecture and top-notch South American cuisine.
- A road trip along West Virginia's byways instead of New England's highways for brilliant autumn colors.
- A romantic rendezvous to Lecce, Italy, instead of mega-touristed Florence for art, wine, and artifacts.
- A hiking excursion in Chile's Lake District instead of England's for an unexpected natural wonder.
- A theater-infused visit to Cleveland, Ohio, where the performances match the levels of New York City's Broadway.
- A tour of Portugal's Azores, rather than the Hawaiian islands, for flora, fauna, and underwater adventures.
- A water-filled excursion through New York's Thousand Islands instead of a cruise down Germany's Rhine River.
- A trip to Detroit to find Art Deco skyscrapers (and even a beach in Motown) that rival those of Miami.
Both surprising and inspiring, Here Not There offers readers a chance to think beyond our typical borders and discover undreamed-of destinations.

This book is a STANDOUT among other travel books!
I have followed Andrew Nelson's work with National Geographic Traveler and The Wall Street Journal for years and couldn't wait to get my hands on his first travel book. The format of HERE NOT THERE makes for a fun and productive read. The chapter headings make it easy to navigate, with some of my favorites being "Unconventional Parks," "Weekend Alternatives," and "Big-Name Surprises." I recently moved back to my childhood home of San Diego and in addition to learning about parts of the city I've never been to, I am already planning trips to Santa Barbara (instead of the French Riviera) and California's Central Coast (instead of Tuscany). And he's piqued my interest about exploring Luang Prabang, Laos instead of Sedona, AZ! I'll be referencing this book for future travel for years to come.

Interesting New Take on Travel!
Finally a real source, unpaid, influeced or AI, providing well researched and insightful travel ideas that are not all the same places we have all already been to or know about! Reading Here Not There, I was excited about all the new places I plan to explore. The new destinations on my radar that are not going to mobbed with people. The hidden gems, yet to be discovered. Always excited with the prospect of travel. This makes the planning more fun!
