Travel Tips

Besides enjoying the cultural side of things, traveling gives me an opportunity to see foreign football matches and visit foreign stadiums. Obviously, I've seen loads of Everton games so I won't include them...

Notable games so far:
Brazil v Japan, Goodison Park,1995; Czech Republic v Russia, Anfield, 1996; France v Holland, Anfield, 1996; England v Brazil, Wembley, 2000;
Hibernian v Kilmarnock, Easter Road, 2002; Rapid Vienna v Wacker, Gerhard Hanappi, 2003; Bayern Munich v Frankfurt, Olympiastadion, 2003; 1860 Munich v Schalke, Olympiastadion, 2003; Bayern Munich v Bochum, Olympiastadion, 2003; Celtic v Hibernian, Celtic Park, 2003.

I also try to see the stadiums of famous teams if I can, not just football but all sports, either by seeing a match or by sneaking into the stadium...
