Legal Stuff
There's a lot of stuff to arrange when you're traveling. The obvious one is a visa. Each country has different requirements about the length of time that you're able to stay on a tourist visa. Most countries (in Europe) don't require American citizens to have a visa, but some require Canadians to have one. Check before you go! These government sites have a lot of general information that is really helpful.
There is also a lot about terrorism on these sites after September 11. People are more afraid to travel right now, and you can find some excellent deals. Personally, I don't think that anyone should live in fear. If you are too afraid to enjoy your life, what kind of a life is that?
There are certain countries that are dangerous to travel to, because of war or their attitudes towards American. Check the travel warnings page for those.
