Best of Europe



From James Martin, your Guide to Europe Travel
What's hot? Well, Northern Tuscany is sweltering. It's also rising in popularity here on Europe Travel. Our Lunigiana Map is hot this week and I haven't a clue why. I can tell you it's a nice place to visit, and it has great food that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. So maybe y'all want to plan a trip. Here's the map.

Pinocchio Remembered
Pinocchio is 130 years old this month, and that's a lot of years for a wooden boy with a precarious nose. Check out how you can find out all about the author and the illustrator of the original Pinocchio series by getting off the beaten track in Northern Italy.

What's Easy about EasyJet?
Need to know all about the budget carrier EasyJet and where it flies and how it nickles and dimes you different than other budget carriers? C. H. Kwak provides the answers.

Sauveterre de Bearn
Little Sauveterre de Bearn is also hot this week; the charming town is near the route of the Tour de France. As I drove to it last year, I marveled at the sight of the Pyrenees rising almost vertically from the green plain, and could only wonder what the riders would be thinking as they contemplated the huge climbs ahead.

The Spiritual Allure of Chartres, France
We met writer David Downie for lunch in beautiful Camogli in Liguria recently, then learned of his article that appeared a few days ago in the travel section of the San Francisco Chronicle. It's quite evocative and reflects our own feelings when we visited years ago.
