| Dear
Readers,
It
is August, the most relaxing month of the
year; hotel businesses are booming, airlines
are cutting back on flights and Every Tom,
Dick and Harry is travelling for pleasure.
Above all, I am particularly pleased to
introduce you to one of the many exciting
new features in Executive Traveller - you
can now watch videos on executivetraveller.net.
We continue to visit many destinations,
discover a lot of lifestyle activities for
members, but food and drink is high on the
agenda too.
As
usual, please do let me have your comments.

Destination
of the Month - Budapest |
 |
From
hilly Buda to the flatlands of Pest, there
is not much you can hate about Budapest.
The Hungarians themselves are warm and friendly.
Old or young, they are proud of their country
and are very happy to share it with the
many tourists that flock in day and night
to admire and enjoy their beautiful city.
The city has so much to offer and has been
listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Celleden

Very often when we are sent products for review
and they are described as ‘cool’,
it is not easy to use the word ‘cool’
for them but the Celleden Bluetooth headsets
is one product which really qualify for the
words “ultra cool and ultra light”.
