As more and more people travel internationally, they need to be aware of the endless possibilities that await them. Exploring that faraway land is not limited to those packaged tours your travel agent, regardless of how helpful, has arranged.

Another alternative is the "Alternative Travel Directory", produced by the editors of Transitions Abroad, which provides its readers with less publicized travel information. This collection of thousands of resources and programs for travelers who customize their reviews selects the best guidebooks and planning resources for unique travel opportunities like native art in Bali or cooking in Africa.

In response to readers' diverse needs in travel planning, there are separate chapters on travel for:
         *  seniors
         *  the disabled
         *  families with children
         *  socially responsible travel.

The book also devotes entire sections to studying and living abroad, as well as retirement opportunities. The year 2004 directory is only $23.95; visit www.TransitionsAbroad.com for more information or call 413/256-3414.
