I find your publication noteworthy for the following and unique reasons:
Your “Info to Go” sections read as though you are really interested in the reader having the best travel experience.
Your publication offers more indepth coverage of a traveler’s potential destination.
You have successfully created literary momentum by providing news and travel “bites”.
Keep up the good work. I wish you well in your endeavor.

Combining a modern look with well-written, practical information, Global Traveler has become a significant addition to the travel industry.
