Happy Holidays everyone. This newsletter is a quick re-cap of what's going on at the site and a wish for everyone to have a fantastic holiday season.

Lauri and I visited Venice earlier this month. It's a fabulous city and I feel we only scratched the surface.

It's been good and bad restaurants galore on eyeflare in the last month or so. I caused a stir with my exposure of rip-off tricks. Even Time Out joined in and helped out some places.

Eyeflare.com joined the Trusted Travel Blogs Network in the beginning of May. And I've added more about food.

RSS is the quickest and most convenient way to get all the eyeflare.com articles as they are published. Details on how to subscribe and an article round-up below.

It's been all about air fares lately. With the weather being its worst self for most of March, I wrote three articles on getting cheaper air fares. And cinema tickets, learning Swedish, online travel tools, being an ex-pat and staying healthy in Mexico.
