2007 Top Travel Destinations

Conde Nast Readers' Choice Awards 2007
While Conde Nast is more of a luxury travel magazine (I normally prefer the budget travel), their readers have spoken and made their choices for the best travel destinations of 2007.
The categories are Top Cities, Top Islands, Top Transportation, Top Hotels and Top Resorts, and are divided up by region.
Yes, Vancouver, Victoria and many of the BC Resorts rated highly in the Americas surveys.

So where are the best hostels and best cheap flights?

Where's the best place in the world to live?

Highlights from the 2007 Quality of Living Survey

The folks at Mercer Human Resource Consulting provided the results of their annual Quality of Living Survey. This survey helps international HR people choose the postings and compensation for expat employees, reflecting 39 factors.

The Top 5 Best Places to Live for 2007 are:
1. Zurich
2. Geneva
3. Vancouver
4. Vienna
5. Auckland

These are the safest and most stable cities, but the survey acknowledges that the top cities may lack some of the sizzle or cool of some other cities on the list. Go Vancouver!
