Have you booked your train ticket home for the holidays? Did you get all those presents wrapped? Did you remember the chocolates for Aunt Patricia?…It’s okay – don’t panic! At least you know that during your train ride, you’ll have plenty of reading material to relax with. Here’s my recommended reading list for holiday travellers:

• Love to read about other intrepid travellers? Check out Elliott Blog’s list of 50 travel blogs you can’t live without.
• Passionate about design? Then spend some time on WebUrbanist.com, bringing together the best in design, urban art and architecture.
• Try not to wake up your fellow travellers with your laughter when reading Stuff White People Like.
• Hoping to catch up on your knitting? Get inspiration from the BrooklynTweed blog. And in case you make a few too many gorgeous winter hats – I like purple
• And for those of you who can’t get enough of the future, there’s good ol’ TechCrunch!

I’m going to curl up with a cup of tea and start my reading early!
