Some Websites to help you travel.
If you're every bored, have a look at Johnny Lists. Here are a list of travel websites I found there for finding cheap flights, etc.

Re: Some Websites to help you travel.
My sister fuels her wanderlust with http://www.secretflying.com/. It gives low fares and error fares for holidays, so there are amazing deals available but they might not necessarily be convenient. (For example, an expired error fare to the middle east for only £79 return... but flying from Belarus or the Ukraine. Or €57 one way tickets to Ho Chi Minh City from Warsaw).

What's an "error fare"?

It's when an airline lists the wrong price for a flight. If you manage to get a ticket before they notice and change it, then the wrong price is the price you pay. Naturally, these kind of prices don't hang about.
EDIT: I only just realised that I misspelled 'fare' in the last post. How embarrassing
