Do you work with a travel agent? Have you had a good or bad experience with one (please share the details).

What are advantages and disadvatages of hiring a travel agent? Do you feel that anything a travel agent can do, you can do and better online alone?

Have you heard of any nightmare mistakes by doing online travel and basically being "Your own Agent" and therefore responsible for the mistakes?

Curious on stories/experiences members of Yahoo Answers have had in the past, both positive and negative.

I'm doing a travel project on Massachusetts and I need ideas/suggestions for places to go and things to see. They can be big touristy attractions, or smaller things like restaurants or quirky art galleries. I just have to make up an interesting and fun itinerary, and price is not a concern for the project.

My friend told me that when you take liquid medicine you shouldn't take that much water, but since i was little I was told you need lots of water to wash it down, plus it tastes nasty.

Just sale anything worth $. And buy a ticket to anywhere. And what kind of jobs are available for someone who just moved to a new country?

I live in America. I don't speak any other languages. Its probably nicer to actually learn the language of the country, but what if you didnt have time? What if you just made a spur of the moment decision? I know that's how it will be for me. Take about a month to get my finances together and just go!

Also, would it be good to have someone with you? If so, anyone up for it?

A few months ago, "The Travel Channel" featured "The 10 best but least known about Florida vacations". They identified some of the less visited beaches in Florida that offered beachfront camping or rustic cottage rentals. They also recommended a day tour that was popular for close up encounters with dolphins. I think it was in the Fort Myers and Sanibel area, but I'm not completely sure. If anyone is familiar with these type of accomodations and sightseeing events, I am interesting in learning more.

I'm assuming most answers will say "to backpack," but I'm wanting tips on how to get around, where to stay, what to do for fun, etc...I want to take a month-long trip for very, very cheap. Thanks for your ideas!
