Last November, Katie Sorene of Tripbase posted her three best-kept travel secrets, along with a challenge: She nominated five other travel bloggers to do the same, with the additional nomination of five more bloggers each.

In addition to contributions from travel bloggers Rolf Potts, Harriet Baskas and Peter Greenburg, several Matadorians also shared a few of their secrets, including:

• Lola Akinmade
• JoAnna Haugen
• Abbie Mood
• Neha Puntambekar
• Nick Rowlands
• Julie Schwietert Collazo
• Kate Sedgwick
• Richard Stupart
• Candice Walsh

For all 500 secrets from 200 travel bloggers, check out the seven Travel Secrets E-Books, which include Family Travel, Foodie Travel, and Worldwide Beaches. For each book you download, Tripbase will donate $1 to Charity: Water, which is striving to bring clean, safe water to those in developing nations by building freshwater wells.
