When it comes to travel TV, few names are more well-known than Samantha Brown. Since the year 2000, she has hosted almost a dozen different travel series. Now she's back with her latest on PBS called "Samantha Brown's Places To Love." Brown says this time around she is taking a more personal look at travel. Since 2000, Brown has traveled to over 260 cities in more than 60 countries. Her favorite place to visit? Southeast Asia. Brown says it's an entirely different world that contrasts so strongly--physically and culturally--from the U.S. To make the most out of travel, Brown says, "don't go for the exclamation points. Look for the commas." The best experiences are in the side streets, not in the main squares.
