I hope this is appropriate; it doesn't seem to fit in with the other questions you are being asked but you say that you plan all of your own travels. How do you find a good hotel in the cities you stay at? What attributes do you look for? What suggestions might you have for someone else looking for a hotel in a strange city?

How do you know that you were the first? Is it possible that someone else did it but just didn't have the media coverage that you did? Also, why do you do these things? Do you make money from it or is it just for the thrills or for some other reason?
