The 'Travel' idea is great. But the description is too esoteric, but be better if the description more plainly stated the target audience, which is independent travellers? – Dan Aug 3 '10 at 18:00

@Dan I agree, I haven't had a chance to travel much and thus feel excluded from the current description. – Sam Aug 12 '10 at 19:41

Agree with others... not a fan of the description but like the travel concept in general. – g . Aug 18 '10 at 20:31

Though IMHO this is a nice on-topic example, a better version of the question would be "What countries are part of the visa waiver program for <your-country-here>". Not everyone lives where you live! :) – malvim Jul 30 '10 at 21:17

Substitute [country]... 'I'll be visiting USA next month, anyone knows a good hotel I can stay in?'... Country is a bit broad and it would be better if there were some requirements for the hotel... luxury? cheap? good for kids? good location? – g . Aug 15 '10 at 19:48

How do I go about buying a car and insurance in the USA?
added by nickf Jul 14 '10 at 6:09
link
This could be on-topic if phrased differently. If traveling to the USA for an extended period of time, it may be cost effective to buy a car and then sell it at the end of the trip. – g . Aug 15 '10 at 19:49
