And suddenly you’re visiting a checklist instead of a place.

Sure, you could go to Paris and never climb the Eiffel Tower, but with so little time off to play with, it’s a chance many of us aren’t willing to take. It’s what happens when you stay where TripAdvisor tells you, eat where UrbanSpoon recommends, and Yelp your way through a vacation-just like everyone else. We finally get a chance to explore the world, find a deal, book a trip-and end up in the same places as every other traveler.
