I also like the look of Kinky Gazpacho... I love the way that Eleanor says: "the true spirit of adventure can be found not only in scaling mountains or scouting out exotic restaurants, but in peering deeply into the everyday life of a different country." This is exactly what I like to do, and I think this approach sometimes brings the greatest travel gems.
