New Book on Latin America Turns Travel Writing Upside Down
In the age of Facebook, blogging and Google mania, opportunities abound for aspiring travel writers. Until now, however, they've been mostly limited to cyberspace. Enter VIVA Travel Guides, a web-based community with a whole new way to look at travel writing and publishing.

The newly published V!VA List Latin America: 333 Places and Experiences That People Love is V!VA's unique take on one of the most exhilarating regions on the planet. The company's website allows anyone to share their favorite travel experiences and potentially be published in one of V!VA's award-winning books.

Travelers from around the world joined V!VA's web community to write about their favorite Latin America locales and experiences while editors compiled the most colorful narratives and photography. The result -- 372 pages packed with everything from cultural reflections and must-see locales to top-10 lists and practical how-to information -- will whisk you from your armchair to places of unimaginable beauty.
