If you are searching for a primary source such as the travel blog of someone who has visited the place you are researching, you may want to use the helpful google blog search tool. Go to http://blogsearch.google.com/ and type in not only the specific name of the place but include the city and country. Your search will highlight blogs of people who have traveled there.
