Video: Using Your Phrase Book, You’ll Get a Tastier Experience

The best travelers are the ones who connect with the people and their culture wherever they travel. And that’s what the Rick Steves series of phrase books is all about. I think I’m the only person who’s designed a series of phrase books even though I speak only English. But I believe that’s one reason why they are the bestselling phrase books in the USA: For decades, I’ve struggled with the language barrier, and I’ve gradually learned exactly which words and phrases are most helpful in the real world. The Rick Steves phrase books — Italian, French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese — are designed with the traveler in mind.

This is Day 6 of my A Hundred Days in Europe series. As I lead tours, research my guidebooks, and make new TV shows, I’m reporting on my experiences all across Europe. I never know exactly what’s next…but it’s always fascinating and inspiring. Thanks for joining me here on my blog and via Facebook.
