A busy week playing catch up means that I didn’t get as much reading done as I would like.  Here are a few of the great topics and conversations that caught my eye:

The Rio Guide – If you’re trying to beat the high cost of accommodations in Brazil, renting an apartment (often times a luxury one at that), may be an affordable option.

Wanderlust and Lipstick – Seattle pal, Beth Whitman, explains how she arranged for dental work to be done in Bangkok.  A good experience with an economical price tag.

Travellious – Kelly’s on a road trip with a bunch of Seattle area travel bloggers.  Destination?  Chicago for BlogHer.  Her recommendations on cheap eats in the windy city made me hungry just reading it.

New York Times – An interesting look at the ethics on reviews and sponsored posts done by bloggers.  Do print journalist standards apply, or should there be a different standard?
