Insider for: Portland
I'm working with BootsnAll to build Insiders 2.0. I love to travel but my travels are nowhere near as extensive as the average BootsnAll member! I lived in Berlin, Germany for about a year and made some trips to Poland, Czech, and Hungary while I was there. I DO know all about Portland Oregon and am getting pretty good with San Francisco. If you have feedback on the alpha, please send it to feedback@bootsnall.com

Insider for: Netherlands Antilles, Chicago, Eugene
G'Day. I'm one of the founders of BootsnAll and helped build version 1.0 of Insiders back in 1999. I hope this version works as well as the last one. I'm familiar with North America Travel, Australia, many parts of Asia and Europe. Yes, that is broad, but if I can't find the answer, I can probably lead you to the answer.

Insider for: Madrid
I've been living in Madrid for the past 7 years, lived here in the 80s for a couple of years as well. I can help out with pointers to museums, eating, neighborhoods.

For the past 40 years, I have been coming to the beaches of Brazil's Northeast. Now that I am retired, my wife and I are spending most of the year on the north coast of the state of Alagoas near Maragogi. I have strong roots here and get around. Before retirement, my work involved living and working throughout Latin America. I now want to give back to these beach communities a bit of the wonderful times they have given me and my family.
