Kroc 2004-10-05: When you go to a foreign country for the very first time, things are easiest if a local (an inhabitant :-)) gets to help you. He/She can help you find a cheap accomodation or a good restaurant, tell you the kind of transport you can use to reach a given place, take you around his city. And this will be done far better than you could do it with Internet.
