Make Your Mark on Our Graffiti Wall
![]() |
| Whether you're planning ahead — or already on the road — Rick's Graffiti Wall is a fun, traveler-to-traveler resource. |
One of the most popular corners of our website is our Graffiti Wall. It's an immense (yet well-groomed) collection of message boards where our travelers share their personal experiences on the most important or perplexing travel issues of the day. As you plan a trip, remember that almost every topic has a corresponding board growing on our Graffiti Wall with hundreds of postings.
With more than a hundred topics, there's something for everyone: Room-Finding Tricks, Best Walking Shoes, Cell Phone Tips, Best European Hostels, Tipping Tips, Chocoholics Unite!, Shopping Finds, iPod and MP3 Player Tips, Marijuana in Europe, Tourist Scam Alert, Staying Healthy, Accessible Europe, Leaping Language Barriers, Flying to and Within Europe, Driving Europe Crazy, Getting Married in Europe, Tricks for Packing Light, Photography in Europe, Travel with Kids, Women Travelers, Solo Travel, Savvy Seniors, Minority Travelers' Forum, European Travel Partners Wanted, and much more.
Still can't find the information you need? One of our newest (and most popular) Graffiti Wall areas is the Travelers' Helpline. Post a question and then read fellow travelers' responses directly underneath in a "thread," without wading through a mishmash of other questions and answers. You must create a personal profile to ask or answer a question but anyone can browse the section without signing in. Use the search box in the upper right-hand corner of our website to see if your question has already been answered.
Will my cell phone work in Europe?
Is it OK to wear shorts in Europe?
Would my kids have more fun in Lucca or San Gimignano, Italy?
Why are London's transit passes known as Oyster cards?
Finally, the topic of "your most inspirational moment in Europe" has drawn over 90 responses and is a great reminder of why, despite rising airfares and the sinking dollar, we continue to travel.
