What’s your favorite hotel chain?
Sure, you have places that you’d love to stay whenever you have the opportunity to do so on someone else’s dime (spa resorts in far-flung cities come to mind), but what about for your own personal travel itineraries?
When YOU are totally in control of where you stay, what hotel chains do you prefer to stay in when the choice is up to you?

What’s the one topic of conversation that you can always have with a stranger that you can have with your parents?
“HOW’S THE WEATHER?” (or variations to that effect) It’s too warm, cold, wet, dry.
Everyone has an opinion on the weather, what it should be and what it was. It effects pretty much everybody in some manner.

Some people are lucky enough to WORK FROM HOME. They think that just because they’re home all day, that really is like a vacation day and they can spend the entire time running errands or taking care of house projects under the guise of “working”.
Others take their telecommuting a bit more seriously, and end up working longer hours than their office-bound counterparts in order to retain the flexibility of maintaining a home office.

Even the worst hotels in the country offer two things in every hotel room: a bed, and a coffee pot.
Now, that’s not to say that the bed is going to be the cleanest or most comfortable, and the same can be said for the coffee pot’s cleanliness status.
But at least the coffee is typically available in a single-serve package that (one hopes) hasn’t been tampered with.

Web Watch has always heard that in order to succeed at your career, you should always move whenever the company asked you to change locations.
And while that works for large-scale, across-the-country type stuff, Web Watch is fascinated by those people we know who just decide to move down the street for no real reason at all. We know plenty of people who change apartments on a whim, or move within a mile or two of their current home just because they felt like it.
We also know people who bought a house next door to their childhood home, in order to stay close to their parents and friends in the local area.

Whenever Web Watch wants to try a new restaurant in a new city, we turn to our online resources for hints and tips from the locals — because you should always eat where the locals eat.
Usually, the online reviews we find are relatively accurate. In one place we ate at recently, the review said to avoid the paella. We should have listened – it really wasn’t that good.
When was the last time you flew on an airplane?
If you’re a recent traveller, then you already know all the ins-and-outs of airplane features and add-on costs. You carry your own luggage, bring your own snack, supply your own headphones.
For you, the airplane is merely a means of getting from Point A to Point B, and isn’t intended to be a luxurious place to relax for a few hours.
