International Value Destinations
USAToday has put together an interesting list of 10 great international places to go for a value on your vacation. These places were specifically picked to allow us to get more bang for our buck when traveling abroad this year, something that seems to be on every traveler's mind at the moment.The list of locations really does span the globe, and there is something for everyone on the list. Want to head to the beach on your break? Then Bermuda is the recommended spot. Want something a bit more adventurous? Give LIma, Peru a go. And for a destination that is still a bit off the beaten path, they recommend Vietnam, where you can stretch your dollar a long way, without skimping on the amenities.
The list offers up some great ideas for international travel in North and South America, Europe, and Asia. Each of the destinations has a link to a local tourism website where you can find more information about where to stay and what to do, and with a little creative planning it seems that you won't have to skip that international vacation this year after all.

I've always enjoyed Nicaragua.. for the money, it's really a stunning destination.

I've heard Nicaragua is wonderful as well, and quite affordable!

I just returned from my 2nd trip in less than 6 months and can't get enough of it. It's not for the faint of heart though, as the tourism infrastructure isn't in place like it is in Costa Rica, but I've made some great friends and welcome the lack of other "gringos" (exception being San Juan del Sur, which has unfortunately been discovered by the cruise ship industry).
