Other than thorntree I use http://www.indiamike.com/, http://www.bootsnall.com/, couchsurfing and wikitravel. Being a photography hobbyist, I use flickr to find about unusual places. It has led me WWII war-time child graves in Latvia (which many locals did not know)[1] and precarious cliffs over Norwegian fjords such as Preikestolen.[2] -- Vinayak 1. http://www.flickr.com/photos/vinayakh/sets/72157623676188760/ 2. http://www.flickr.com/photos/vinayakh/sets/72157624057289208/
