I am getting set to do a bit of travelling in the next couple weeks and in my research, I stumbled across these lovely travel guide books from Japanese publisher, P-Vine Books.

Even though I cannot understand Japanese, these look like cool books to have on a coffee table. The illustrations and photography are beautiful and would still be helpful, no doubt.
On a separate travel related note- has anyone used or seen this travel site for booking unique apartments and boutique hotels? I just found it yesterday and I am in loveeeeee. It’s called Welcome Beyond “Hand Picked Paradise.” Had I found it earlier, I may have used it to book some of my honeymoon stops. The properties on this site are unbelievable. Most are apartments/houses to rent but I did see a handful of smaller, unique hotels on the site as well.
It is interesting to think about why we find things when we find them. Welcome Beyond is not a new site, but I only learned about it yesterday. I wonder what led me to it.
If I could re-book the hotels on my upcoming route using Welcome Beyond, I would look at saying at:
- L’ancienne Post in Provence
- 42 Rue Victor Hugo in Languedoc-Roussillon
- Alemanys 5 in Girona, Spain
Apparently, I’m not the only one who thinks that Welcome Beyond is neat:
1. Yatzer: Welcome Beyond + interview
2. Flodeau: Welcome Beyond Hand Picked Paradise
3. Happiness Is: Welcome Beyond
Enjoy travel dreaming, dear readers! I hope this has provided some inspiration.
