Budget Travel Magazine, You Really “Get” Us
Here at Philebs, we’re on the receiving end of no less than two new listicles per week that mention Philadelphia — often infuriatingly so. But Budget Travel‘s “25 Reasons We Love Philadelphia” gives the bird’s eye view of why your friends should come and visit you in Philadelphia so neatly that we just might bookmark it, because honestly, we’re tired of selling this city to people who live in places where people rollerblade and lead their children around on leashes. Meanwhile, BT hat-tips everything from Vagabond to Amada to Art Star to the BYOB restaurant scene, and still sneaks in the museum-y bits. Well done, guys. We never thought we’d be saying such a thing to editors of Budget Travel, but these here are wild times.
[P.S.: Speaking of tourists, if you wanna spend a little more time with the image at right, we would not blame you.]

Thanks for the tip! The Mrs. and I have decided to enjoy a 10 day staycation blowout to celebrate our 10th anniversary and this list will definitely help fill out the itinerary.

Um, thanks? I wrote that article. It was hard to just keep it to 25.

Caroline, is Tiger a pen name? It’s awesome either way.

Haha, no it’s my real name. Thanks :).
