I love Europe. But, with with U.S. Dollar at an all-time low against the Euro, its time to start looking past Europe. Its also a great time to be a little more adventourous when choicing a vacation destination. But, where? Try Thailand, Morocco, and Hungary, according to a recent article on MSNBC.
Morocco - Here the dollar is worth about 7.1 Moroccan Dirhams, however, this will change in the next few years when the country will align its currency with the ever powerful euro. The article notes, in Morocco's capital, Fez, travelers can find a luxury Royale suite for $180 per night.
Thailand - Definitely an old favorite along experienced travelers. But, worth another visit. One dollar is worth about 30 Bahts. In Bangkok, visitors can stay at the Oriental for $260 or approximately 7,990 Bahts. On a personal note: the article recommends making Thailand part of a Southeast Asia jaunt and I couldn't agree more. A few years ago, I spent a three months traveling from Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos.
Hungary - Yes, yes, Hungary is in Europe but with its currency, Forints worth 173 to one dollar it is a bargain. And because its a bit off the beaten path compared to other European countries, your dollar will go far.
