do you go everywhere with a lonely planet or other guidebook and plan your whole trip based on information in that book? you suck! get rid of your guidebooks people!
in all fairness, i used to be one of those people. i'm currently in a lonely planet recovery program and working the steps. it's been about 8 years since i last used one. |

If your vacation is a short one, I think LP are the best things going for giving you the essentials. |

I usually have a bit of a read before i go to a country and jot down the famous places to check out and then when i get there go to the tourist info place and ask for a brochure and ask people where i am staying where is a decent place to go that is off the beaten track a bit... |

...And then they open their Lonely Planet, look at the "Off the Beaten-Track section" and tell you =) |

I use LP guidebooks. I'm not ashamed to admit it. I use it for info on places to stay. I don't let LP tell me where to go and what to do. |

Kangnam is so cool.
He surfs the internet instead of spending time in the real world.
At least he doesn't use a LP. |
