Sorry I'm posting this here, but I'm not sure what to do with the following info and who to forward it to-if anyone else wants all of it.
I was looking through old Word documents from Winter 2013 on my computer and I have about 1,000 pages of past graffiti wall posts/comments. (Some info is outdated- ex. ATMs vs. Traveler checks). I have the following-
sleeping on trains
servas tales
laundry tactics
anti-americanism-reports from travelers
ugly american sightings
"toilet training" in Europe
cyber cafés
eastern European tips
cool factory tours
European TV guide
favorite gestures- 2006-2010
gross traditional edibles
best open-air museums
sleeping in airports
strikes in europe
has travel changed you? 2010
learning from europe
new year's travel revelations
ATMs vs. Traveler's checks
Archive-favorite cafeterias
decadent experiences
drinking the water
€uro support group
house swapping stories
jet lag cures
ultimate picnic spots
reports from travelers in europe
most scenic train rides
hitting the festivals
Accessible Europe
Packing
There may be a few others in there too somewhere.

Hi landon - I'm not positive, but I suspect all the Graffiti Wall info (I still say Graffiti Wall myself, when I'm referring to the current Travel Forum) should still be available thru Rick's Website search function. The favorite gestures from 2006-2010 might need an updating, if any new gestures have become favored! :-)

You posted the same question 4/19. And this is your only postings on this site. What are trying to do or want to do? You make me suspicious.

I've never really needed to post before, but have read plenty of posts on here-very helpful for trying to plan an itenerary. I still don't have enough money saved up to go to Europe yet but should in another year or 2. Still trying to figure out where I'll want to go-too many places seem interesting to me-not Rome or Italy though. Almost all the past graffiti wall info. I have are comments people left on the wall. Here is one of them.
Ex. Sleeping on Trains Years ago my friend and I took the night train from Rome to Paris. We'd both read "Europe Through the Backdoor", and noted certain advice about women traveling on trains. We'd originally gotten into the wrong compartment (the reserved card outside the door didn't look right to me), so I went to check with the conductor. When I got back, my friend was in the corridor, convulsed with laughter. When I peeked into the correct compartment, I saw 4 nuns - Rick Steves had advised that it was safest to travel with nuns. They were very nice. Showed us where to stow our luggage. But it was definitely lights out by 9:00 pm.

Hello landon. I am not interested in reading any of the Graffiti Wall posts that are in your Word documents.

As noted, a search on this site would probably pull up any info in your documents, and if it's too old, well I guess not very useful. You could create a personal document of all the fun anecdotal ones, however, I'm sure it would have to stay personal and has no value beyond that. I guess there isn't much you can do we it, or that we can use with it. Personally, I would go through and start deleting to open up space on your computer.

Or, Landon, as you read the Helpline, you may see a question which was neatly answered on one of your archives. You could then contribute an answer.
