replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @CharlesMcCool A1: We usually research Google maps, then we drive and see first hand; and will review a few blogs. #TTOT

A1: Twitter and esp. chats like this are a good way to talk to travel friendly folks and ask about tips. Once there it is best to talk with people at your hotel or restaurant folks or just find people anywhere you are.

A1. When I'm planning a trip I read blog posts and travel articles about the destination. When I'm there I might google nearby restaurants. For things to see and do I check the destination's tourism website and usually they have a brochure available, or even signs posted #TTOT

replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @CharlesMcCool A1: on recent trips I've found Google Maps / reviews to be really useful. Found some great bars / restaurants via google, such as this bar in Helsinki in May 😁 #TTOT

A1: A million ways, I usually order a @lonelyplanet once I know where to go, read it, make a list of places to visit which I source online after using #travelblogs @TripAdvisor etc. but I like the haptic of a book at the first point 😇 @SonjaSwissLife @CharlesMcCool #TTOT

How do you support locals with your travel spending? #TTOT

A2: I try to support with buying local products incl food at markets. I hate tours but if, I go for small local companies not the big ones. Best experience ever been in Iceland, going into the glacier with Vigfús. https://t.co/aseK14j566

replying to @TravelDudes @TravelDudes @aardvarksafaris A2 Definitely try to eat local and shop local as much as possible while travelling. Not only does it support the local economy but it's more authentic and more environmentally friendly! #TTOT

A2: One easy way is to eat local in small family owned restaurants. Good food usually and great stories when you get to talk to local folks there or the owners.

A2. Chose independent restaurants and cafes, shop at independent boutiques, street markets or at a minimum chains specific to the country, chose independent tour providers. #ttot https://t.co/Np4GiFhDft
