Q5: Has a local ever pointed you to a hidden gem, like a locals-only spot? Tell us about it, and share a photo! #CultureTrav

A5: Our Airbnb hosts usually do a great job at this! One of the main reasons we do Airbnb vs. hotel. I don’t have a pic handy for this one though - excited to see yours! #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: Yep, in Fiji. We discovered the “floating island” in Vanua Levu, and when we stopped at a village for directions, we were the first white people some of them had ever seen in real life. #culturetrav

A5 My friends in Tokyo took me to a little izakaya that was difficult for locals to even find. It was even featured in manga. #culturetrav https://t.co/cXuIhukzJJ

A5: When you rent an apartment or do an airbnb the hosts typically give you an amazing list of things to see, do, and places to eat. That's how we found the best meal I've had in #Rome #Italy https://t.co/iIxJW1Wx4o #CultureTrav

@Nicolette_O A5: I was at #Yosemite and someone suggested #MonoLake. I had heard the name before but didn't realize it was such an amazing landscape

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5 heck yeah, I would have never known about the sacred albino bison at @Nemacolin in @laurelhighlands if someone did not tell me. Amazing animal! Worshipped by Native Americans. #travel #CultureTrav

A5 I like to live with locals or in close contacts with locals when I travel so did get some very good recommendations for hidden gems and more secluded places that I like. #CultureTrav

A5: In Latvia in 2007 we were shown where the Latvians drink by a local and had a great night in a secret jazz bar! #CultureTrav

A5 Last summer, at one of my fav (trendy) restos. Berlin. British couple at the next table leaned over to ask whether this is a touristy place. Everyone around me was either speaking (loudly) in American or British English. Yes, you bet it is. #culturetrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: Yes! Tatiana from @OgoTours shared with us the relative secret (I had never heard about it in researching Madrid) of cloistered nuns in Madrid that make delicious cookies they sell without ever being seen or leaving. 😍📸 #culturetrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5 Mostly to local-specific stuff like restaurants and special events. I went to a Bonfire Night that still had a real bonfire & effigy in Scotland (apparently usually they just have fireworks these days) because a local told me about it and where to go. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: in Morocco, our host, Maria, took me to a hammam that only locals went. She helped me get the right soap, scrub and then took us to a place where she likes to eat soup after w scrub. It was divine. A really special day. #Morocco #CultureTrav

A5 There's a tiny French Bakery in Puerto Vallarta that you would miss if you didn't know better. It's just a store front. The owner is a French expat and OMG the pastries 😍💙😋 #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5. A local in Hong Kong recommended a visit to a neighborhood meat and fish market for an authentic experience. She was right! #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5 #culturetrav I don’t have a photo, but a few years ago I went to Amsterdam and some locals advised us to check out a farmer’s market! You’d never think of that when you plan a trip to Amsterdam 🥰

replying to @travelcricket8 @travelcricket8 A5 - Not a local as such but an Austrian friend of mine took us to this cool little bar tucked away in Salzburg that he'd heard of. Really good beer, lots of local students and young professionals, no tourists. No pictures either but a fun night #culturetrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O A5: We were recently pointed to a couple of beekeepers making the most delightful honey here in #Baracoa, #Cuba! Contrary to many parts of the world, in Cuba bees are doing great – no pesticides or other damaging forms of pollution. Hint: upcoming blog post on this! #CultureTrav
