Enjoy!
1) My Most Beautiful Post
This short and sweet entry shares the anticipation I feel before I go on a big trip. I hope I never lose this excitement and wonder.
On the Move Again
2) My Most Controversial Post
As I like to keep things light around here, "controversy" is a foreign topic on this blog. I want you to laugh at my stories, not leave four letter words and evil comments. I have succeeded almost entirely, until I wrote this post. There was one person who did not care for my lighthearted hatred of the euro and essentially told me so in their comment. So read the post, and then read the comments. Mr./Miss CrankyPants is not hard to miss. As this is only comment (ever) that has even come close to being "controversial," I consider my "keeping things light/making people laugh" mission accomplished. Now, this is not to say that you can't disagree with me on here, because you totally can. It just seemed that this person was unnecessarily grumpy about my status as Eurovirgin!

3) The Post I am Most Proud Of
I did a little bit of growing up in this one. So I suppose I am pretty proud of that.

4) A Post I Feel Didn't get the Attention it Deserved
Come on people. Everybody loves a good bathroom in a foreign country story!

5) A Post Whose Success Surprised Me
As if there aren't ongoing wars, famines, and natural disasters occurring in every corner of the globe, I chose to focus on a less pressing matter: myself and the funk that I was in. Your exciting travel updates did nothing to raise my spirits and this post is what happens when I have too much time on my hands. Thankfully, things took a turn for the better by the time I finished writing it and I pulled myself together. Geeeez!

6) My Most Helpful Post
I do not normally tout causes or organizations on this blog, but this is one group that I can personally endorse. Having visited the school, met the girls, hung out in the home of the director, corresponded with its board members, and even done some editing for their website, I can vouch for Nurturing Minds. If you have some extra cash you are looking to spend on a worthy cause, I urge you to consider sponsoring a student.

7) My Most Popular Post
According to the Blogspot counter, my most popular post is the one you see at the top left of your screen. However, I don't actually believe this. I think Blogspot is playing with my emotions and/or subject to some sort of erroneous counting practices. You see, I don't get tons of traffic pouring in to Travel Funny Travel Light each and every day. I'm doing pretty well if I get 500 pageviews in a month. However, in the span of only two hours on the day I published that post, I somehow, miraculously, defying all odds, got over 500 views on that post alone. Now, I will say that I did submit that post to Suzy Guese and her weekly Stumble segment, which I have done with other posts without getting these astronomical (for my humble blog) results. So I simply chose not to believe the numbers. I am going with this post instead, which I just so happen to like better anyway.
